So with a big family. We dont shop like smaller families. EVERYTHING is bigger, more lol. We usually do two costco runs a month, My mom does a sams run, then we do smaller runs throughout the month as needed. Today we did our costco run. Normally it would be next week ( not a bills paycheck) But with all the crazy and headache. I didnt want to wait.
So the lines were two deep from the front to the BACK of the store. They were sold out of all canned goods, Tp, paper towels. They had bottled water and no one had touched the case of alkaline water ( my favorite) so thats what i got haha. We got fresh foods and veggies. Some frozens. A few small snacks like corn dogs that i never buy for the kids. A big box is just one meal maybe a meal and a snack haha. So thats what the kids ate as SOON as i got back.
My son texted me asking if i bought 20 lbs of TP. Im like… Maybe?? Turns out the boxes inside the box came to 22 lbs. It really was just two packages of TP i managed to get on amazon by some miracle. But it sounded hilarious. We now have eggs, milk, tp, paper towels. We got shp towels too. Husband loves those things. They are thick. But we got the apples and oranges the kids NEED terribly. The one area i dont skimp on for my kids. Fresh foods. Ill do without the canned as long as they get the fresh.
It only took the hubby and i 30 minutes to get through costco and then 30 minutes or so in the line. Pretty good deal really. Considering HOW crazy it was in there. I spent the time in checkout talking and laughing with the 4 year old in the cart behind me and her mom. Made the time go faster.
My sister went to sams. She said the lines were insane but it took them 45 or so minutes. Unfortunately she went with her friend. They brought back cookies, muffins, yogurt for her ( only) and general junk food. But got eggs haha. We have no bread. But we have eggs and flour. Not that i should be eating bread. Every day i do i end up with terrible stomach ache and gas. So im trying not to eat bread. The kids however love it…
I now have a headache because im restricting my caffeine intake. If shit does get shut down. My caffeine addiction isnt going to get filled anyway.
We have plenty to do. The kids are already homeschooled. They can continue working as planned. All the meet ups are canceled. Which sucks. I didnt get my zoo membership yet but im wondering if it will be closed to the public soon too.
Dang it, my rabbit bit my hand badly. Its now hard and swollen. im afraid its going to get infected. So frustrating. I washed it out really good. But that isnt 100% especially seeing its my palm. Shes pregnant, so shes getting a pass on that one. THAT one.
ok headache is getting worse. I need some ice or something. And im going to work on my spinning wheel for a bit, maybe knit.
