Yes I can get anything I want. We are having a curfew tonight at 7pm. It’s sad for the businesses that just opened.
Just got back from a trip to Aldi's. Didn't get everything on my list, but that is because Aldi's tends not to carry some things I want. Bill came in "slightly" lower than the past two weeks, but not much.
Also encountered my first individual in a grocery store without a mask. After telling several employees who did/said nothing, she walked past me for the second time (no social distancing) and I offered to give her a mask. She just looked and said, "I have a medical condition." I DID NOT say, "I'm so sorry! I hope that your medical condition will not be worsened by catching covid. I hope you don't get sick or get others sick." The only thing I can think of is - how sad that she doesn't think much of herself or others to take such a risk of catching the virus on top of an already existing medical condition! I have said numerous prayers for her and anyone who may come in contact with her.
It's not actually legal to not wear a face covering because of a "medical condition" at least not here, there may be some exceptions where you can wear a faceshield is all.
Yeah--wear a shield if you "can't" wear a mask, by all means.Quote:

This week I noticed that the grocery store, a covid winner, purchased all new carts. They are equipped with a security device so if someone tries to take them beyond the parking lot the wheels lock up. That way the future boom in homelessness when the eviction moratorium expires won't allow them to be stolen.
Really? Rob told us once that grocery stores didn't mind sending trucks out at night to collect the grocery carts he left on the sidewalk outside his house.Quote:

The 25 cent cart is at Aldi's here and works like a dream by me. People seem bound and determined to get their quarter back and I have yet to see a stray cart anywhere. Now the other local grocery stores are a totally different story. LOLQuote:
