LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Day 5 of Social Distancing In my best Morgan Freeman voice: We are over 100 hours in ... My people are near the edge .. The sudden cold weather and rain has dampened their hope of outside activities, which included standing on the carport and wishing they could go to town.. The whole house other than me is trying to tick tock, whatever the hell that is ... Sadly , the others have no rhythm, nor pass times, and are not happy about being told to amuse themselves... I’ve been threatened for sharing on social media, so I am posting this from the bathroom, using my phone... Don’t hate ...times are tough and I need cake ... It's the wrong week to run out of bourbon .... I need a new vice .... We will get thru this .... Stay strong .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 All I have here is half a bottle of Scotch, a pint of Bulliet rye, a pint of Grand Marnier, and I located a pint of E&J brandy in my sister-in-law’s pantry. And 5 bottles of Corona, but I’m not that fond of Corona...either bottled or viral. And it’s raining.. My liquor cabinet is 2,000 miles away. How’s that for depressing?

Blackwater 53393 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I have a gallon of apple pie, half of a quart of vodka, half of a fifth of Bulliet bourbon, three cases of the green Coca Cola Life in 12oz cans, a case of regular coke, a case of ginger ale, two pounds of ground beef, three pounds of country sausage and a pound of hot country sausage, three pounds of bacon, a 5pack of Nathan's restaurant style hotdogs, half a pound of smoked ham, a big bag of frozen biscuits, two pound-and-a-half top sirloin steaks, a loaf of marbled rye bread, a dozen ciabata rolls, a freezer full of quickie style, microwavable snacks, a few pounds of chicken breasts, and three pounds of turkey sausage. There's lots of fruit juices and two gallons of spicy V8, two boxes of cereal, several partial bags of chips, a box of crackers, a bottle of mustard, five cans of tuna, two dozen eggs, some cream cheese, some cottage cheese, two jars of "natural" peanut butter, (all the regular peanut butter was sold out), a box of brown sugar, and four cans of chicken soup. With the exception of the beverages, this was yesterday's shopping list. We didn't need toilet paper, but we got paper plates. The guy who owns the grocery was carrying bundles and cases of toilet paper to the shelves the whole time we were there and folks were carting it off just as fast as it hit the shelves!! They had a sign up asking folks to only get one bread item because the bread truck wouldn't be back 'til Monday and that everyone orta' be able to get some bread. My gym is open and it's right next to the local Wally World. I reckon I'll stop in there when I finish my workout tomorrow. We forgot paper towels and I need some steel wool and some gun oil. Things are really peaceful here in semi-rural Middle Tennessee! I can hit the intrastate in Ol' Green and run a hundred twenty miles an hour for several miles before traffic starts getting in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be able to go out tomorrow. But it will be to the cancer center for Carol’s treatment session. And I’m not allowed in the building. So I’ll sit in the car for 3 hours. In the rain.
