Well done, A!
-
I don’t know about GA as a whole, but the DiC has been a little louder - in a good way, mind you - the last few days, imo.
-
@Mikiesboy I’ll watch the exercise clip later. Right now I’m too busy couch potatoing with my hot chocolate-coffee.

I didn’t read the entire article, but it stated Amazon workers have tested positive for the virus. We are being careful dealing with the deliveries we're getting, but I told my mom there are times when I should probably pick things up rather than having them delivered.
-
Talking about curb side, I had a flashback to my childhood when there used to be a roller type conveyor belt at the front of the grocery store. The groceries were put into plastic crates (or something like that) and they were pushed along the belt by the force of other crates until they were outside the store in the loading area. They actually had staff who put the crates in the car for you - a form of drive though. I wonder when that stopped? Hmm, no recollection of that at all.

Having a senior’s hour is great idea, but early in the morning for those who have slow starts due to heath issues (arthritis for my mom) isn’t so practical. Then again, the alternative is a busy store, so damned if you do, damned if you don’t. There’s no easy solution to this, is there?

My dad had a box of them for when he painted and/or varnished. Still have a bunch, so I can use them if need be. For the moment, we’re getting stuff delivered, because my mom is 86 and she, and by extension me, doesn’t want to go into stores.
-
True.

Just heard this on the news. It’s best to go shopping for groceries or the pharmacy early because the stores are getting a more thorough cleaning, so the earlier you go the more germ free etc. the stores going to be. I knew about the shortened hours but never connected that with a new cleaning protocol. Maybe some of you figured that out...

Good night tim... sweet dreamz tonight and always xoxo

Good night molly...happy dreams I’m off to bed as well, and to the rest of you lot, the sweetest of happy dreams when your turn comes...
-
I’m glad you don’t have to go in, tim. Breaks and lunch in your kitchen ( and a quick commute ) seems a much better option.
-
Some people are born not to sit still. I’m guessing you’re one of them Kitt. Hang in there. Maybe you’ll figure out something new to keep you busy.

Something to amuse one’s self from the comfort of your couch. Saw this and tried it from the YouTube link. Definitely a little different... https://www.canadaswonderland.com/blog/2020/march-2020/heres-how-to-take-a-virtual-ride-on-all-the-rides-at-canadas-wonderland-in-your-own-home

To all DiCers...

I wish you luck, and I know you’ll do great. Hang in there, Starry.

That makes sense. I saw a pending order on my for running shoes at Sportchek but it did eventually go through. I guess they weren’t in a hurry to get my money. Thanks for the explanation, tim. I figured there was nothing nefarious going on.
-
Don’t know the date, but it was about five days ago, so during the business week. Also, she cancelled the order (sanitizers and the like) the same day when she realized the products were coming from China. Though, I suppose a lot of stuff does, it’s not always so obvious.
-
Yes, nice of them to pass the buck as the saying goes. Even though she’s 86, my mom is a keener when it comes to doing stuff online (had to drag me kicking and screaming into the online banking world lol) so she’s not going to let this go until the situation is resolved.
-
My mom called her bank help line about a cancelled (from a week ago) charge from Amazon still showing today as pending on her cc. They’re so busy, she was told to send an email.
-
Hope not too much, tim.
-
Yay!

Good night tim...sweet dreams tonight and always xoxo.

I practice social distancing when I’m out for my walks and last time I was in a store (Wednesday, I think) just don’t engage people . People I find are acknowledging each other from afar. I haven’t heard anything against congregating as yet (as in groups) but I suppose one way is to close the malls.
