  1. Umm...not sure I should put this in writing but I HAVE contemplated murder.....I really, really, REALLY, need DH and DS to go back to work. There are signs they may be opening up but no clue when right now. DS works for Amazon and has been off on medical leave because he has lupus and they have had 3 cases in their warehouse. He was about to go back when another case just showed up so now has to wait to hear from the doctor whether he can go back now or not.

    No real travel plans except to maybe visit DD in Seattle but we are doing major work around the house, so that probably won't be for a couple of months at least.

  2. Oh Sluggy, I feel like I have been alone forever! My divorce (after 40+ years) was final in January (he went crazy) and just as I was starting to adjust to hanging out with friends the lockdown occurred. You would think that would give me a good reason to do stuff around the house. Alas, I haven't been good at it. My Sunday School class is starting to meet this Sunday and I think I may hug and kiss every one of them!!!

  3. Still cannot find rubbing alcohol. Finally found alcohol wipes. Drinking alcohol is in abundance though. For the price of the wipes, I probably could have bought a bottle of drinking alcohol and had the same results.

    ReplyDelete
  4. No big plans for June. Cases are really spiking in our area, so we're spending just as much time at home now as we were two months ago. It's definitely starting to wear on me!

    And WOW I would love to win those Clorox wipes! Our stores have been out since March!

    ReplyDelete
  5. No travel plans in the foreseeable future so I ordered a pool from Amazon. Aside from virus concerns I also have to give Zima the diabetic cat insulin shots twice a day. She hates car rides so it looks like we’ll be staying close to home for a few years.

  6. Awesome give away but I won't enter this time and give others more chances to win. I love all the items you put together. My husband is still talking about the one I won.lol He loved the candies and couldn't believe all the stuff fit in the package.

  7. In June I have to make 2 trips to pick up show rams for my daughters flock. Also need to keep the garden going with weeding, spraying and general maint. Elsewhere I have flower beds I need to keep up on with watering, weeding and transplanting. I am not traveling or going many places yet. DE is opening phase 2 June 15th. I am staying put though in my own lil world.

  8. No plans for june. RI is on phase 1 so some resturants are open. TP is still not always in all stores. The famous 4th of july a activities will probably be in August. Am rather tired of masks but still wear one. Gerry T. merlinsfamily@outlook.com

  9. No travel plans for this summer or for the rest of the year for that matter. The store shelves are looking better everyday around here. Nice change from the bare shelves a couple of months ago. Suzanne

  12. Upper East TN is opening up some, so my extended in-law family will be celebrating a big birthday for my FIL. He turned 85 in early April, but we couldn't gather then. In an unusual turn, the party is not at my house. Now I have little motivation to clean and purge. Thanks.

  13. We're doing some midweek camping next week...we have a self-contained tiny trailers and looking forward to some lowkey time in nature :)

  15. I am just going to keep on with my amazing and exciting life in June just like I did in May. No need to change perfection, right?

    ReplyDelete
  16. I am just puttering and watching my garden. I need to plant tomatoes.

    ReplyDelete
  17. We had to cancel our trip to London/Paris - I know my husband has been looking to reschedule, but I'm not ready! Happy to live where we do and to have our beautiful pool to escape to. Still walking 4-5 miles a day, but now adding 50-100 laps to my routine.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I did travel to Georgia the last of May to see my kids and grandkids - couldn't take it any longer. I have no family to speak of in Indiana. I have another trip booked the end of August - round trip was $98!! I may attend our church family camp if it actually gets to happen but don't have any other plans for a "big" vacation.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Contemplating murder... Bahahahahaha! So true...hehehe.

    Please don't enter me in the drawing, as I have won before and want someone else to experience your generosity. I just wanted to comment on your post. Good luck to all those entering. :)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Just received a notification that the pool is arriving today. I assumed it would be next week so we are not prepared. Weekend will be spent applying for the permit and setting up the foundation.

    Jen G.

  21. Our state has begun opening up (groups of 25 or more are allowed, outdoor tables at restaurants are allowed), but not much will change for me, I’m afraid.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hanging out with the one grandbaby I can see.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I made Strawberry Freezer Jam yesterday.. such a treat to have in the winter when it is snowing outside!

  24. Lots of fire pits and smores are going to be happening in June. NY is starting to open up again but we are be very careful until my daughter's wedding in July.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Lots of things have opened up here. Except for Disney. That should be happening next month and it will be by reservation.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I had been doing really well with not getting tired of my family, but I'm getting worn down this week. KIDS ARE LOUD!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  27. we are planning to stay put at home until we feel is ok to venture out. for now, the yard seems fun enough to enjoy the summer!

  29. We love to take a family beach trip in the fall, but we will wait another month or so to see how it's going before making a decision. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Hmmm, yes I am sick of certain people in my house. Of course I didn't have fond thought of this person before quarantine so there is that. I have planned the perfect crime in my head also. I'll bet every criminal has said the same thing, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Normally, we’d be at the public pool several days a week. Kiddo has settled for running through the sprinkler. I have a big roll of landscape plastic and will make him a slip and slide this weekend. I’ve had to work at the shop through the pandemic, no chance to get sick of the fam! vanessabrown76 at gmail dot com

    ReplyDelete
  32. We have no plans for travel. I cannot find wipes. Everything else is here.

    ReplyDelete
  33. The giveaway looks fantastic! I could use the wipes. Sign of the times that disinfectant wipes are what everyone looks at first. Will that ever change?

    ReplyDelete
  34. The FedEx delivery was dog food, not the pool. The Amazon seller is being weird. Said it shipped Monday but gave a tracking number of all zeros. I asked for a valid tracking number yesterday and received a credit today. I have a feeling that pool is not going to ship since sellers are now doubling the price.

  37. Rain, rain and more rain. The weeds in my flower beds will be knee high by the time the ground dries out enough to do some gardening clean-up.

    ReplyDelete
  38. We painted the shed the same color that we got on the house last year. Better late then never.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Procuring hand sanitizer is still a bit iffy in East TN. You have to get to Wally World bright and early. Clorox Wipes still aren't to be found. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Granddaughter who is 21 is coming on the 14th of July and staying until the 21st. I have missed her so much. She wants to see us and of course her dad who moved here from out of state in March and is now working at a restaurant here in town. Both my boys in the area and now a visit from granddaughter. I am so happy. Now if I could just see my mom. Take care.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I need all that stuff in the box! Erase this message if Tommy ends up dead from and unfortunate accident.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Toilet paper, whole wheat pasta, and cleaning wipes are still in short supply around here.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Our small, immediate family is having a cook out today. We are blessed to get to see them frequently during this time.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I plan to eat tmotoes from my garden in June.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Since our big travel plans are off the table, we've been doing lots of small day trips. We're going hiking the afternoon. Helps keep the cabin fever at bay!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Casinos are open now - we all know how essential they are. lol. Supposed to have plexiglas in casino restaurants between booths but you still have the same server and cooks so how safe is that. Also every other slot machine is turned off to promote distancing. Yet the parking lots are packed so where are all the people going when they get into the casino. If anything spreads it here I will bet it will be casinos.

    And you still can't go to Church unless you have no more than 50.

    ReplyDelete
  47. No fall travel planned here ...but sometime, when I can, I will travel to meet newly discovered first cousin, who is unfortunately on the other side of the country.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I havent been shopping too much. Some pastas have been low but i have enough stockpiled. Not much selection in canned goods but I rarely use them. Thanks for the giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Working on sealing our countertops.. uugh.. ready for fun instead of all these projects!
    Bonnue

    ReplyDelete
  50. Tofu is still hit or miss. Sometimes it’s fully stocked, other times it’s spicy orange only. I found a bag of Morning Star chicken strips buried in the freezer so finally made “chicken” and dumplings today. Those have also been out of stock for months.

    Jen G.

  51. We went for a walk in the park yesterday. That was fun.

  52. NJ is taking another step toward opening up as of today .... houses of worship (with restrictions), for ex. The level of infection is staying flat, so it seems appropriate. I think hair salons will also be opening. Like everyone else, I really need a haircut but don’t know how that can be done safely.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Another exciting day of deep cleaning ( :. I'm so tired of projects and ready for some fun!!!

  55. Of to work this morning. Medical work is essential work. Still trying to stock up for the next wave just in case. Deals are a bit harder to find but doing the best I can. Take care.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I’m finding some weird stuff in the pantry since I’ve started doing every other week shopping. They must have been free Friday downloads from Kroger at some point. Today it was a graham cracker pie crust and vanilla pudding mix with best by dates in 2018. They looked fine so I mixed it o with some coconut and manager’s special flax milk. The flax milk sucks so I have it in the freezer firming up.

  57. Need to see if salons are open. Have to much gray. Gerry T merlinsfamily@outlook.com

    ReplyDelete
  58. Technically our state is opening back up but cases are skyrocketing so things are dicey. We live in a small town where the hospital only has two ventilators so we really can't handle a surge like the one we're experiencing. So yeah, we're staying home.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I am hoping to maybe travel to Kentucky sometime around Labor Day if things calm down. I haven't been there in a few years and I have a few cousins I would like to catch up with. We will see if the virus is behaving itself by then :)

    ReplyDelete
  60. we cannot find yeast here either!, I might try the supermarket tomorrow to see if I get lucky

  61. Hi Ho Hi Ho it's off to work I go. My schedule hasn't changed except to get busier in the last few months. Our state is in Phase 2 of opening. The Phase where it seems like stupid things are allowed to open and others not. Small business is suffering so much.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I mentioned that we're doing lots of small trips around here instead of big travel plans. We've had a great time hiking close to home - we even found a new trail we didn't know existed, only about 10 minutes from home. Glad there's plenty to do around here because it seems like it might be awhile before we fly again!

    ReplyDelete
  63. My flavors of boxed wine and Vitamin Water have been scarce or nonexistent at the Kroger near my house. I checked the one near campus that everyone calls Kro-ghetto and found tons of both! I may have to go back and check for tofu and fake meat stuff.

    Jen G.

  68. I am so ready to travel to somewhere! I may just pack up the car and head out to Kentucky to visit long lost relatives. Can't wait for this lockdown to be over!

  69. Clorox wipes are also hard to find!, and for some reason iced tea is MIA from the supermarket!

  71. Hair salons are opening on Monday here!! Boy do I need that.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Hoping our crazy weather will settle down soon. It swings so wildly that you'd think it was a child throwing a temper tantrum. lol

    ReplyDelete
  73. I have a new technique for the “chicken” and dumplings. We always eat all the dumplings and then have quite a bit of the plain soup part left. This time I made extra dough and added it for lunch today. We like a bowl with four large dumplings each.

    I kind of forget what I’m supposed to be adding as a comment so this will have to do! My brain is broken from slackers taking advantage of work from home rules. 😒

    Jen G.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Another beautiful day. Still looking for disinfecting wipes and gloves.

    ReplyDelete
  75. We had been struggling to find tahini for months and we really want to make hummus. Well, a new health food store opened up in town and they had it! Hooray!

    ReplyDelete
  76. No one to kill around my house :) I am glad that some outside community events are starting to take place. I plan on enjoying the sunshine and a huge breaded tenderloin on Saturday at a car show.

  80. One thing we can't find here...is a SWINGSET! We would like to get one for our kids since we're home so much but they're sold out everywhere! Wild.

    ReplyDelete
  81. The whole Covid thing has been good for companion animals. I really missed having a dog, but the local shelters did not many - it seems I was not the only one with that thought!

    ReplyDelete
  82. No travel plans but I have way too much PTO and there’s a limit on how much I can carry over at the end of the year. Work is crazy at the moment but I’d like to take a week off and do nothing.

    Jen G.

    ReplyDelete
  83. We will gather with my extended in-laws to celebrate an 85th birthday. There will be the option to visit outside, if weather permits. No other big plans for June.

    ReplyDelete
  84. We can find most items at the stores now. Some stores are still limiting TP, paper towels, wipes. But most grocery items are not limited. But they have gone up in price! Yikes.

    Bonnie

    ReplyDelete
  88. I think my dreams of a pool for summer have been dashed by a bad Amazon seller. But my nice neighbors stuck a ladder over the fence separating our yards and said we can use their pool. Kind of awkward but but it will be in the 90s so guess I’ll be climbing over.

    Jen G.

  93. I am actually not sure what things are not available here. I know a lot of things are semi-sold out. I had to buy expensive hand soap because that was all that was left. And a lot of things are limited to one per person.

    ReplyDelete
  94. It's Saturday! Oh the fun. Preparing potato salad, baked beans and deviled eggs. Will see what else is in the works for a veggie dish. Probably having a BBQ tomorrow. Not sure yet. I just want some food to eat. lol.

  95. It is 88 today and muggy. GerryT. Merlinsfamily@outlook.com

    ReplyDelete
  96. Amazon now says the pool is running late and will be delivered June 20-25. I don’t believe it so bought an $8 plastic kiddie pool. Everything else is sold out around here. Now I’m kind of tempted to buy a boat.

    Jen G.

  97. I live in IN and we started opening up slowly on the 15th but with social distance. Since being home for so long I have started cooking more, cleaning and sewing. I pick up change when I see it! judyk2310@gmail.com Thanks for the giveaway whether I win or not. You'll make someone happy!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  98. I was able to get a haircut after 3 months on 6/3 - left my own version of Cousin Iit on salon floor! Live alone so no one to get grumpy with except the "imaginary" maid who does not come often enough, or work hard when she is here - LOL. Numbers have spiked since the state reopened and I am waiting to see if they shut us down again. I have been blessed to be able to keep working through all this so am grateful for that - vesta8xstitchatgmaildotcom

  99. No big plans yet. I've been trying to do a lot of coupon matching to create a stock pile. Doing some cleaning and home improvements around the house.

  100. Amy’s roasted vegetable pizza is finally back in stock for the first time since March. Some other random things are still missing. Today it was diet cherry 7 Up and puff corn delites. I was in a junk food mood but denied for both.

    Jen G.

    ReplyDelete
  101. No travel plans yet, but our state is pretty much fully opened up now. Noticing more paper products in the stores, thankfully, but tracking down disinfectants is harder. Never imagines my 2020 would be playing out like this, but just rolling with it! readwritemomblog@gmail.com

    ReplyDelete
  102. Since I live in a county that has people not following the rules, we are finally going to green this coming Friday. Which means my hubby and I go back to work and my son goes back to class (in some way.) Murder? No but a couple more weeks and maybe. Basically we ran out of things to do and are just getting on each others nerves.

    My big plans include a couple more household projects and adding to my stockpile.

  110. Still searching for whatever deals I can find on items we use. Think we should all get hair cuts, doctor visits, dental visits, eye appt.s any thing you need to have done- get it done now and keep up with things. Since they have locked it all down once it will just be easier for them to do it the next time.
