I looked under DH's sink and we have 3 unopened bottles of alcohol. I knew there would come a time when I would be glad I stocked up on something.

That’s great :). When I went to Target at the end of feb, I bought the last bottle of rubbing alcohol (way in the back on the bottom shelf, lol), Good thing since I found out afterwards that the bottle at home expired 3 years ago. Today, my Walmart is still completely out of TP and all relevant cleaning supplies. Target is now supposedly limiting all sanitizer related products to 2 per customer (but none on the shelf when I walked by a few days ago)

I love the warm vanilla sugar scent — I can smell/sniff it all day, lol.

It’s hard to know how long the cruise passengers will be stuck on the ship. The news said of the 3,500 passengers, around 45 have been tested so far since Thursday—so it may be awhile waiting for the test kits and then for the results. They want to test everyone before letting them go. I almost want to stop reading the news but since I am in a highly affected metro area, I want to know the details in case it impacts my family. DD said at her college, some students are freaking out while others are making fun of this.

B&BW's warm vanilla/sugar is my favorite scent for soap too! For many, many years I only bought that one. Until DS started asking for other scents. Now I buy the lemon and peach ones, but in my bathroom I mainly use warm vanilla & sugar. :yes:

It is annoying but on the other hand, it would be annoying if people were cavalier about spreading the disease. When my kids were young, people didn't think there was anything wrong with taking their kids out when they had chicken pox because they assumed it was a mild disease to kids. Well, I was pregnant when I got chicken pox. It was scary there for awhile. The hospital was going to put me in isolation. It turned out okay because I had a mild case and it was cleared up before the baby was born but if it hadn't cleared up, he would have had complications.

DH is high risk since he has heart disease, and I'm high risk because I have asthma, so in our case, I feel we can't be cautious enough. However, I don't get why people are going crazy over toilet paper.

You have every reason ti be cautious. I agree about the TP craziness, though. We've had the first few cases here in my state and people are really overdoing it. DH was at Costco last night and he noticed that almost all the TP was gone. Then a guy came up to him and said that he has a small garage full with TP and he was selling it at $50. :wtf: Gave him a card and told DH to get in touch with him if he needed any. Yes, he said people were buying from him at that price! :eek:

Well it looks like Im not going to Italy...even the the Tour Operator in Auckland didnt know.
With most sites being closed and some of the changed itinerary being in the no go zone looks like its toast. And thousands down the drain.

Oh no! That is so disappointing! I'm sorry to hear that. Wouldn't they try to reschedule? I really hope you don't lose your $$$.

Got amazing news today!
My husband is fiiiiiiiiinally working back around the house so he'll be home all the time again! Lol
Thank goodness, because I was getting awful lonely and depressed.

Also, he said he found me a Megan bag and tried to surprise me and ordered it (didn't get it authenticated, he has no idea that you have to do that) but the lady never did send it. :sad: I think I'm more upset that the lady tried to swindle my husband. Lol

That's great news! Nothing beats being together. I hope you figured out what's up with the bag that was supposed to be a gift. Can your DH get his money back?

My Navy Cassie arrived the other day. I’m happy with my decision to end my ban for her. It will be such a great travel bag for me. Plenty of room to hold my card case, wristlet, lip balm, sunglasses, map, tickets, phone, Invisalign case (a must for me these days) and of course my mini hand sanitizer lol

Now if only I could fit all my rolls of toilet paper in there ... :smile:

Love this bag!!! I’m debating pulling the trigger on the Stone Blue one. I love blue and this looks like a nice blue. Then again the pine looks good with the gunmetal, but not sure how dark it is.

I actually keep most of them in their dust bags only (for better airflow). But I have gotten many recently (my bad!) that I just left them in their boxes. I just now moved into the new key pouch I got in Jan. A little behind on everything here, lol. I am a bad clutterbug, according to my DH. He is always commenting on my cluttered ways like asking if he should buy me the Marie Kondo book, or suggesting I watch the M Kondo show, or asking if I need to look into this storage place called Clutter.com that has been running ads lately. Ggrrr.

Oh no! I bet that made you feel bad. You have your pretty slg's, though. Maybe you can show us sometime?
My DH gets on my case too. I've had quite a mess in our place recently. The worst is my closet. I am down to like 45% now. :doh: Anyway, a while DH says: why don't we use part of our bathroom to make you another closet? You seem to need the space....:annoyed: ok, mr not neat! Not needed, thank you. :shocked::smartass::biggrin:
