Bits and Pieces

4/9/2020

Most of you know what "bits and pieces" mean. It means I don't have anything in particular on my mind. Unless, you count boredom! Yesterday, I forced myself to go into one of the spare bedrooms. Yuck. 

How does one person (me) allow the spare rooms, gather up some much stuff. It's a tough assignment, but somebody has to do it. 

Do you have a thermometer? Thermometers are as rare as chicken lips. It's not in the same category as toilet paper, but close. I couldn't find anything reasonably priced, so I returned to my old hunting ground.

Lucky me, I was able to find a no contact thermometer for a ridiculous price on Ebay. Based on the price, I'm positive I'm not getting a high quality thermometer. But, if it works, then what do I have to lose? The price is $12.33 (see what I mean about quality). We don't have a thermometer in the house, but feel the need to have one now. Once the virus is gone, then you should be able to get a better (higher price) thermometer all over town.

And, then you have to buy masks to wear in public. Apparently, this isn't a request. Last week when we went shopping, I used a very large scarf to cover my nose and mouth. Not the best thing to use going forward, but I have a few masks at the moment. Mostly, the only place Jeff and I go, is to Costco, and WalMart. A thermometer at WalMart lowest price is $62.88. Masks, now mandatory, the lowest price at WalMart is $30.99. Oh, and several of the masks are not available? You think?

Stacey and her friends are making masks, but I know this is a big project and time consuming. To be safe, I have ordered a few masks to use in the meantime. Better to be prepared, than sorry. I was a good girl scout! Be prepared. Nobody is going to get these things for you. I guess if you never leave the house, you might not even need a mask. But, on the other hand, if you never leave your house for weeks on end, there likely will be a bed waiting for you in the mental health department! And, I've been in that ward before.

Time is ticking, but you will notice that I'm done before noon.

Stay safe everyone.
