Good morning, All - . With all the disruptions going on right now, Debby, who knows what is happening. Milk supply here has remained okay.

Morning Sour!

It was sort of funny. While I was waiting for the store clerk to get my milk, another woman showed up and pitched a fit and swearing what a "sh** show" this year has been. I couldn't help but laugh. What else can you do?

Good morning everyone have a great day

Hi everyone, sorry I disappeared there. Life kinda went to hell in a handbag.

My beloved Nan, who had recently turned 90, was admitted to hospital. She'd developed an awful cough and her heart was racing. She had thyroid cancer a couple of years ago and had to have a pacemaker put in too, but sadly they found that she now had stage 4 lung cancer. Initially it was hoped they could stabilise her and she would be able to go back to my parents house where we would be able to see her and at least get to say goodbye as they thought we would get a month or two with her. But sadly she didn't stabilise and she slipped away one night. So we are all very upset to lose her.

And then DH was informed on Friday that he was being made redundant, effective immediately. In New Zealand you cannot do that - there's a consultation process you must follow if you are restructuring your business and the company he worked for did not follow any of the correct procedures. He's raising a personal grievance because, on top of not following New Zealand employment laws the justification they have given doesn't stack up.

We will be fine so don't worry, and I do love having him around rather than only being here briefly twice a week. It just isn't right how he's been treated though which makes me angry.

So that's me at the moment.

So sorry about your loss

Good morning all.

Here's a question for you all...yesterday at the grocery store the entire dairy case was empty...no milk, cream, 1/2 & 1/2, nothing at all. There were 2 signs posted, one was that eggs were out (not a big surprise) and the second sign said if anyone needs dairy, an employee would have to get it for them.

Is there a shortage on milk products or is this just something weird going on with my store?

The local store has a full case of milk and other stuff, not sure about Wal-Mart as we don't go there often

Seemed strange to me. Apparently they had stuff, but it was all in the back and had to be retrieved by an employee. Their sign didn't explain anything and neither did the clerk. Just another random bit of weirdness I guess.

I'm so sorry about your Nan Jae Good luck to your hubs with the job situation, I know it's good to have them home for a while sometimes though so enjoy it while you can!

good morning everyone. This is the view from my patio this morning, chance of t-storms later, yuck!

I saw on the news at one point that milk was being dumped because of delivery issues but that wad maybe in April or May. Milk was low at one point but not to that extreme.
