I went to the Wal-Mart to get some cream cheese. Rocky suggested I make a salsa thing to snack on and it sounded good. There it a jar of Mango salsa in the cupboard that’s been in there awhile we got at Pepper Place in Opry Mills. Anyways.... I went and it was stupid crazy.... after I parked the first thing I saw was a lady packing her car up.... 4 large (like 24) packs of Toilet Paper. I so badly wanted to yell “cause you need all that right”.... I didn’t lol but it had me smiling lmao.
I went in and it was like… last minute groceries at Thanksgiving. I would say it was like black Friday but no one was actually fighting over things. I got some milk because Rocky poured some 3 days past date milk out this morning I.....

Before I went to Walmart I mad a meet for a mower.... the kind you push.... with just blades and no motor....Lady was super excited about it but when I said “you’ll want to order that part right away”.... she suddenly didn’t want it even though it said in the listing that it was missing a part and where to buy it smh .... she’d wanted to meet at noon so I figured I’d go out and get some lunch instead of making a thing I had needed milk for.....

k back to Wal-Mart..... I was honestly the only person I saw smiling.... including children.... The more I saw the more funny it was.... seriously weeks worth of groceries in carts… lines forever long.... I got a bag of chips.... the cream cheese… milk..... decided on some Pop-tarts.... a bottle of wine… and a couple cucumbers mostly snack stuff for me for the upcoming weekend/week.... but nothing I didn’t think I’d get before I left really....

A random cutie said hi.... and then I went to check out.... I walked the whole front and decided to wait and check myself out.... and this guy was standing in front of me holding his long sleeve shirt over his mouth.... he said “I can’t believe there are so many people here not taking any precautions”.... I said “masks are for the sick man”..... he nodded but obviously misunderstood me.... “I’ve got 5 kids so it’s better than nothing.”.... I said “80.000 died in America last year from the flu. So far it’s what 4,500? worldwide.” .... “39 in TN, there has been a state if emergency declared” I KNOW he didn’t mean dead in TN but confirmed cases and OMG now we are asking for government help as if we are better than any other state? or are they all asking? “well, I’m not scared anyway, it’s being blown out of proportion big time. The fear of infection played in news media and here we are.” “I’ve been in the medical field most of my life”“Well, there ya go, you’ve been exposed to far worse than this I”m sure”.... he nods.... and we check out.

Came home and decided to put my tippy toe in the Rabbit hole..... Yes a state of Emergency had been declared. .... Among reasons for doing so was so that the guy in charge could ask the insurance companies to lift the copay for testing.... so that’s good… they all (8) said yes.... so if we have to get tested it won’t cost us.... (in TN) which is great because I can see people not going to get checked if they think they have it because it’s expensive.....

I just wish media would shut up already.... it’s going to get worse before it gets better because people are going to get it.... but it’s no worse than the flu every year.... some will get it .... most wont....

but HEY let’s just believe whatever they say on TV and panic because we don’t have a clear view of what to do.... oh! the confirmed cases have been quarantined..... but Waffle House is going to be closed until further notice???? and Schools???? and events :(.... and.... OMG sheeple.... THINK for once
