Sluggy
Ooh, the kids would be so happy with all of those treats! (thehawaiiplan@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteI am binge watching all kinds of shows I didn't know I would find interesting. Kim N.
ReplyDeleteI would love the chocolate, it's one way that I'm getting through this I'm afraid but it does help!
ReplyDeleteI am keeping positive by staying in my office or my bedroom and away from family... ;) And eating the Twin Bings stash all by myself.
ReplyDeletePut me in the running baby!
Trying to remind myself that these times are precious with the kids and am focusing on that extra time to play games/throw the football with them/etc in between hearing "MOm, mom, mom, mom, mom, mommy, mom, mommy, mom..." all day long. LOL
ReplyDeleteOh you are speaking my language with this box. Please include me in the drawing.
ReplyDeleteI have been doing lots of gardening during the lock down. It hopefully will pay off this summer.
ReplyDeleteYes, and phase 10 dice is the greatest game. Next time we get together we have to play it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like what the Dr ordered for staying at home. This is so hard
ReplyDeleteYum! Some to nosh and some to share. Thanks for the opportunity. Ranee (MN)
ReplyDeleteWhat is this sharing you speak of? If this comes to me it will be "my precious"
DeleteFocusing on staying safe if out and being glad I can stay in and stay safe. That makes me happy--being safe. Man, I could handle all of that candy.
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm keeping positive by limiting how much info I take in (keep informed but not overloaded), walking each day, connecting with family and friends (colored eggs with my adult kids via messenger video tonight), keeping busy with home projects and fun projects (try for a bit each day!)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Debbie
Sdelar @ frontiernet (.) Net
This giveaway is just what I need :-). Sweets to calm the anxiety. I look for silver linings and there are some. For example I have more and longer phone conversations with the people I care about. Thanks for the giveaway! You’re the best!
ReplyDeleteI am trying not to cook and bake and eat everything in site but at least right now we are all healthy. I am also positive if I win I'll eat all that candy myself. aerodog@zbzoom.net
ReplyDeleteI’m trying for this giveaway because Kevin would LOVE it. kimncolumbia at aol dot com
ReplyDeleteLuckily my Dog is keeping me positive and he gets us out of the house to play with him, we are fortunate to live on acreage.
ReplyDeleteTo stay positive, I have been trying to take advantage of the extra time with my kids. We have played A LOT of Candyland!
ReplyDeleteI'm binge watching a show on free HBO. Stay safe!
ReplyDeletepjames330 at aol dot com
As a mommy to 9 - and with a newborn! -
ReplyDeleteI know my household would be thrilled for this package!
Yum. I'd share with my parents.

Even though I am an accountant I have been deemed "essential" so I am going to work every day. That at least forces me to shower & get dressed!!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a neat idea, Sluggy. You are so creative. Please don't count me in the running since I've won in the past. I just wanted to tell you that I thought this was a great idea. :)
ReplyDeleteI think just getting the box would be a mood-lifter! And the contents too, absolutely, but just the fact of receiving it. Here in NJ the infection rate and fear level are high. Sometimes my fellow humans here make me almost as nervous as the virus. But I am positive that we will overcome come this, though I believe it will take a long time.
ReplyDeletePerfect give away goodies! I’m a homebody, so the quarantine isn’t bothering me too much. I keep a hand sewing project going and I’m watching a lot of tv!
ReplyDeleteI am pulling weeds in the yard - small doses. What a trifecta. Weeds are diminished, I get exercise, and I get some sun (Vitamin D). Who knew pulling weeds was so fun!
ReplyDeleteYesterday spent some positive time in the kitchen! I baked a snack cake for the kids (sneaking in a rutabaga!) and made butternut squash for the first time and Ben ate almost the entire squash himself! LOL
ReplyDeleteHappy Good Friday. I hid a bag of shrimp in the freezer so we are having shrimp scampi for dinner with homemade bread and pasta. Yum. Stay healthy everyone.
ReplyDeleteI have pretty much stopped watching the national news in the evening. Was driving me crazy. aerodog@zbzoom.net
ReplyDeleteI am staying positive by counting all of the many blessings that I have in my life. I am a teacher and although I can't be in my actual classroom, modern technology allows me to connect with my little second graders via video and through ClassDojo. Also, I get to spend lots of time with my 25 year old daughter since she is also working from home and came here to stay with me for the duration...time I would not otherwise get with her since she lives 4 hours away normally.
ReplyDeleteI am just doing nothing in particular to be positive. I still have to do the same things every day and cannot do the same things.
ReplyDeleteStaying positive by really limiting the news. I'm trying to shield my young kids from all the chaos, but I've found it actually really helps me too!
ReplyDeleteThe only positive for today is I am alive which is a good thing but I feel like I am in Groundhog day movie with no end.aerodog@zbzoom.net
ReplyDeleteI am cooking and baking again. Also walking the dogs several times a day.
ReplyDeleteI try to stay positive by getting outside and soaking up some Vitamin D....also so far my Community Garden where I have a plot is still open and in a leap of faith I ordered seedlings...I really need that garden this year!
ReplyDeleteToday is all about getting ready for Easter.I made cupcakes and my youngest is going to decorate them. I'm stuffing plastic eggs. Put together the baskets. Have a wonderful Easter!
ReplyDeleteDoing a lot of weeding and seed starting. Wishing you a joyful Easter.
ReplyDeleteI am crocheting an afghan while binge watching shows. Also, doing health insurance activities to earn $ on my health insurance debit card.
ReplyDeleteToday a friend gave me a ride to a small park at a pond that is still open and we took a walk..I have walked briefly in my neighborhood every day but this was green, with ducks and geese and a change of scenery. It gave me more pleasure than I could have imagined a month ago.
ReplyDeleteSmutty it was hard to stay positive today. Just me and husband, missing my kids and grandchildren alot. I know this will end at some point but soon I hope. aerodog@zbzoom.net
ReplyDeleteI apologize, I typed in Sluggy and didn't read it.
DeleteWell some folks would say I'm smutty....lol
DeleteSince both my kids and all my grandkids live 10 hours away in Atlanta I don't get to see them a whole lot. I had a trip planned at the end of March but of course that didn't happened. What has really helped me to stay positive is that they have been extra good at sending pictures and videos of the girls (ages 5 & 2) and the new English Mastiff puppy. We also Facetime quite a bit. Not the same as being there but it sure helps!
ReplyDeleteToday is raining and I am finding it harder to keep my spirits up....since this thing began I notice I am more weather-dependent or sun-dependent...no sun and the anxiety rises....gotta distract myself with some decluttering :-). Thanks again for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteKeeping busy by texting and calling family and friends more often. Sure beats cleaning for fun.
ReplyDeleteI roasted my last chicken for Easter. We had maple carrots, stuffing and gravy with it. I cooked the bones to make a wonderful stock. Today chicken orzo soup is on the menu.Making sure we use every last bit.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to be positive and am glad that right now my family is healthy and we will be together soon. aerodog@zbzoom.net
ReplyDeleteTrying to stay positive. Yesterday was hard-- missed being with family; Rebecca had an emotional breakdown about missing school and friends. It was just a hard day. Tried to keep my spirits up by baking and cooking and focusing on the fact that I can actually cook things that take time as we are not rushing around each evening. Hope you had a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteStaying positive by throwing heart and soul into taking care of a beautiful Easter lily gifted to me by my neighbor. I kill ALL PLANTS but this one is so lovely so I'm really doing my best.
ReplyDeleteTrying to come up with creative crafts to do with things on hand. What has come to mind? Paper mache - I have flour, water, and just started a newspaper subscription - so, that too. So many neat things can be made - bowls, sculptures - pretty cool stuff. Oh, and I have paint to jazz any creation up. Hmmm.
