Rare Lionesss Posted November 20, 2020 #2651 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Went to Sams club in Niles Ohio and they were out of paper towels as well as TP. Even their brand they carry. So took a chance and went to Home Depot, and golly Gee, they had TP (our brand SCOTT) and Bounty paper towels fully stocked on the shelf limit of 2 each. Bought the limit on Wednesday and went back Thursday for another limit. Not a hoarder, giving to the DD 2 packages of each, TP and Bounty. She has no clue of planning ahead until she puts her last roll of TP on the holder and then golly gee got to go to the store to buy some..................not going to happen girlfriend. Guess when you go to the path less beaten you find what you need. Stay healthy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here in Pa, should be 60ish today and tomorrow. Heading to work soon so I guess tomorrow will be last good day to finish up outdoor christmas decorations and last ride on tractor to run it out of gas for winter storage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dani negreanu Posted November 20, 2020 Author #2653 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well, since we're posting cat pics, and we don't have pets, I've borrowed a pic of my "stepcat" from our neighbors next door... her name is Licci and I've been asked to consent to this name 😁😁 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a Charmin Ultra Soft guy while the boss is a Ultra Strong lady. She has an advantage though, her Toto Washlet. 😎 I bought a Sam’s bundle of Ultra soft a few weeks ago, after scoring the ultra strong a month earlier. We are good for months. We have a Toto Washlet in our guest bathroom (my new favorite bathroom) the DW never uses the Washlet feature, but she does like the heated seat. TMI.... sorry 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domino D Posted November 20, 2020 #2656 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) I am suspicious that the real reason the Canadian boarder is closed is to protect our toilet paper supply. Does anyone else wonder what people in other countries think when they see our response to rising Covid numbers is "Quick get all the toilet paper you can."

Rare h20skibum Posted November 20, 2020 #2658 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well dang @Lionesss, it looks like we are almost neighbors. That is the same Sam’s we shop at, although we would now have to quarantine for 14 days when we cross back into PA. 🤷 Plenty of TP and Bounty at our stores this morning.

I am very lucky to have a great neighbor who took very good care of her. The neighbor loved to come hang out, watch tv or relax on my patio as an escape from her hubby. I would always buy her a special gift from wherever we traveled to. Me too. I had a fantastic cat sitter who would not just feed, etc. but play with them, posted a detailed "visit report" email each day with 4-5 pictures every day. Made it a joy to check my emails while on a cruise. 🙂 But same thing..one week was good, but two weeks was max for me. Missed them too much, and they missed me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter is in Chicago, without a car, so she walks everywhere. She is also a nurse so I told her to pee before she left work and then hold it until her next shift or else just drip dry. Right now she is quarantined with covid and I'm too scared to ask if she has TP. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted November 20, 2020 #2669 Share Posted November 20, 2020 This... has become this after 3 hours work.

This is eerily reminiscent of my vacation planning workbook. I will eventually include the cost of each excursion and often times where we will eat (if I learn of a unique place). When we did the 9 day Greek Isle cruise out of Rome, I had to include ifsums and check fields so Jane could choose various excursions each day and see a total cost for the trip. The part that makes my wife laugh is my cross referenced "Clothing Need by Day" tab. But that thing is the key to packing light, especially if I can plan in a laundry day. I like planning almost as much as going. Edit: I am probably the only one that is as excited by this as the cat pictures Edited November 20, 2020 by Domino D 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
