I found out this weekend that our 78 year old RN aunt is back to work. She had been working full time at the hospital prior to this crisis, well more than full time 4 12s a week. Then they furloughed her because of concerns for her age. Last week they called her back.
She reports it takes her 45 minutes when she arrives at the hospital for them to suit her up. When she gets home she goes to her back door and strips, leaving her shoes outside. Carries her clothes inside directly to the laundry, then goes right to the shower. Then she says hi to her 80 something year old husband.
She is happy to be back at work because she was going nuts at home, but understands well what has to be done. The last time I saw her was March 3rd and she was still working then although she hadn't seen any cases.
I know markets are different, but I am putting in an Aldi delivery order and I can get almost any kind of bread I want. Flour is not available, but bread is.
I miss running. It's just too crowded around my neighborhood, even at 5:30 a.m., for me to feel comfortable doing it.
We have a 50-pound(!!!!) bag of flour, because M saw it at Costco and decided it was a good idea. I still haven't figured out how and where (mostly where) we're going to store it. I'm just glad he didn't get the tub of Twizzlers.
I highly recommend teaching your kid to work the tv remote. I slept in until 9:30 after a brief visit from ltc who likes to jump on our bed.
Do you need flour, msbelle? Dylan's is selling it.
I don't need it, but will if I do any stress baking. Right now mask-making is holding that "busy thyself" part of my anxiety. But thank you, good to know a local source.
I started today by missing a blood donation appointment, and husband found out that the stupid fucking job is still interviewing other candidates and won't be done until the end of the week.

I had to throw out the better part of a 5-pound bag of flour due to a weevil infestation. So a 50+ lb bug-proof container is highly recommended.

I had to throw out a bag of gluten-free flour because of weevils. That shit is so much more expensive than regular flour, it was painful to toss it out. So everything is in ziploc bags now.
Still haven't made cookies, but I'm thinking later I'm going to make those chocolate/oat no-bake cookies.
