YA'LL
I found a place you can get TP for cheaper than ebay! XD

Ambiance (the adult toy shop) has novelty Christmas "In case you get **** for christmas" toilet paper on clearance for a mere $3/roll!

BUY BUY BUY!

I guess we use TP at an insanely low rate in my house. 3 weeks ago we had 11 rolls in the package. As of this morning, we're down to 10. At this rate we're good for another... 30 weeks?

Paper towels I'm having to use more prudently, because I admit I do tend to blow through those fast since I'm constantly wiping stuff down in the kitchen. I want the counters clean enough to eat off of.

Welp, I was exposed and so was my hubby. His coworker tested positive. Now we are BOTH quarantined at home, just waiting for the symptoms to start. Thankfully, there are tests available. I'll be fine, but my hubby is older than I am and has lousy lungs.

We are in limbo in so many ways. We are between houses - having sold ours but not yet bought another and living with my mom. I am a teacher who was relocating a couple hundred miles north of here and just waiting for my contract to end in June. But now school is canceled for now and hiring is frozen. I had interviewed and was given a job offer, but I was supposed to sign the contract this week. Now I'm sharing a small house with my hubby, my mom, 2 adult sons, my older son's gf, a combined 7 dogs, 5 cats, 1 guinea pig, and 8 chickens. It's a zoo - literally. I am worried for my mom and hubby.

But at least I'm getting paid. I feel so badly for people who find themselves without work and no pay all of a sudden.

I wish I knew that everything is going to be ok....

Last year I changed from using paper towels to wipe stuff down to small towels/rags that I use and wash. So it’s never ending paper towels in cloth form. As far as TP, I use baby wipes for my kids and I’m the only one that uses TP in my house so one roll lasts me ages!

Couldn't hurt to Vitamin C load, stay hydrated. I hope all goes well for y'all!

Oh I use regular towels too but I can't stop with the twice-a-day lysol and paper towel routine on my stainless steel prep table. I swear you could perform surgery on it.

I am getting close to running out of tissues but that's less vital.

You know what? Your guess is as good as mine. I can't tell, I clicked on one of the links because I thought it was wanting volunteers for a state emergency, Florida does that for hurricanes & relief efforts. I hate opportunistic slime balls that scam & try to scam. We shouldn't have to worry about scams! I'm hoping it's legit, because it probably went out to all Florida registered certified & licensed healthcare workers.
