    Since my daughter and I are immunocompromised, and our doctors want us to self quarantine, we stocked up several weeks ago. Now we have made a schedule of sewing and putting puzzles together. Also it has given us the time to clean out and reorganize our things (my daughter tends to be a pack rat). :) Stay well everyone.

      We did a freezer cleanout and a partial pantry challenge last month and the first week of this month, so we were out of all meats (other than 1 turkey and 3 hams) and our pantry was much lower than I like it to be. So, I had planned to do a big stock up later this month anyway, but because everyone was buying everything out, I decided to go ahead and do it this week. Unfortunately meat has been a problem. I was able to grab a few packs of ground beef at a local grocery store (although I had to pay more) and a few packs of chicken at Kroger last week (it was on sale). I didn't really have any trouble getting the canned goods I needed to restock my pantry.
      And of course, it was time for me to buy toilet paper too..lol. I buy a 45 roll pack at Sam's Club about once a month (skipping a month here and there as needed).
      It was really crazy in every store I've been in. If I would have had the option, I would have gone at night to help avoid some of the crowd..

    We are fortunate to be stocked for about a month. Here in Washington State it's crazy. Like everywhere else the stores shelves are empty. The word is we have 1000 National Guard on the way. They will be closing our states boarders. Quarantining is necessary to keep it from spreading. Already 60 deaths and more than a 1000 infected. God bless.. Be safe.. Wash your hands!.. Enjoy your family time. 😊

    I bought double or so what I normally would to last a month or so if needed but honestly we could be fine for months I’d like you said we planned and got creative towards the end.. really we don’t need to be so obsessed with food.. we can make home made bread or tortillas and eat them with soup or beans if it came down to it and not starve .. I am thankful I have a yard though so we can watch the kids play outside and not feel stuck in doors which would happen after 2 weeks lol I think this will bring a lot of families closer together with games and activities and totally jump start the spring cleaning in our home hahaha

    I thankfully had a large Sam's pickup order already planned for the first week of March. When word got out that this nightmare was coming, my daughter went back to Sam's to grab a few more necessities. Then we went to a regular grocery store. Because I am always stocked up so well, and we have a freezer full of deer meat, I know we will be good for a couple of months. I have a store pickup on Sunday for dairy frozen veggies, and a few other things. I have five adults and one teenager here so it takes a lot of food for three meals a day.

      We are now closed until 4/20! Since my husband works in the stores each day, he always asks if I need anything on his way home. it's helpful since I don't want to risk going to the stores myself. I know I could catch something from him being exposed, but limiting exposure seems best right now.
