PLEASE don't Hurt me! This is a general opinion NOT directed at anyone. Negatative replies etc. will get the thread locked for sure. It's great to disagree, but use wording that won't tick anyone off.

It's Saturday, Chocolate. Time to spend the day in jammies doing something you enjoy.

Thanks for the reminder ... I'm beginning to lose track of the days! And yes ... I'm following doctors' orders ... in my jammies still, at 3 pm!

My oldest DD bought me a bread machine for Christmas. I never thought I would like one but that thing makes it so easy, just toss everything in and turn it on couple hrs later you got a loaf of bread.
I still prefer the no knead artisan crusty bread baked in a cast iron dutch oven though. Pretty easy also.

I LOVE my bread maker. Mine has a special gluten free option that makes GF bread even easier. (ALL other gluten free baking and cooking is by hand...lest you all think my goddess title wasn't properly earned)

I'm tellin' ya...if someone told me I could only keep my bread machine OR my food dehydrator...I don't know which I would choose. My head would explode!
Thankfully that's not happening, but I'd gladly give up all my other gadgets to keep those two.
Even the Air Fryer (I can hear my kiddo crying now...No Mom! Not the air fryer!!)

Good thing those healthcare big shots and doctors are on TV every day. Good thing they are not political and just speaking first hand knowledge. Listen to the healthcare doctors who know what they're talking about. The political side -think of that as an entertaining game. Because it is very entertaining.

You like a bit of tragedy for your entertainment then.

Again, we need a like and dislike at the same time smiley.

Entertaining? Not so much.
Thank goodness for the doctors and virologists out there who are getting accurate information to the public. Totally agree, they are the ones to listen to.

So is Walmart and most service based businesses such as grocery chains, health care workers, etc.

I live in a rural, dare I say, "backwards" county. I love that life has a slower pace, here, but it means fewer opportunities for many. My small town is virtually shut down. We have a lot of bigger businesses moving into the area, including Amazon, Lidl and a great big industrial/commercial area a few miles north of me ... but that's all still under construction ... most of which has stopped, for now. {{{... sigh ...}}}

Yeah - all the political posturing can be entertaining, but so can amusement park roller coasters ... and THEY make me sick to my stomach. too!

That, my dear @Shadrach, is the understatement of the decade!
