It is pretty overwhelming. I was getting freaked out, but I went outside and planted some strawberries.

Don't feel bad, @perchie.girl, I think it has all of us a bit on the jumpy side.
Glad to hear that you are on the offensive with the house challenge. Take one day at a time and don't be like me and try to do it all at once.

No, the beer and wine was at Walmart. Lol.Wait....you can buy beer and wine where you buy your feed? Dang, I gotta get the MFA on the ball!
DH got 250 pounds of layer pellets, 50 scratch, 100 pounds of dog food for the bottomless pits and a sack of cat food today. We are good for 2-3 months now and don't have to worry....at least about that.
I voted today. They were not busy, everyone was keeping their distance, they were cleaning everything down after each person, and had lots of hand sanitizer.
Few weeks ago we stopped at a home depot, good organic potting soil big bags on pallets left over from last yr were $1.80 on sale. DW told me to grab two, they were froze solid, super heavy..hey I need a cart..your alright..dude that works there asked if I needed a cart..no he's ok..made it out.
Did a little more shopping then she got thinking maybe we should stop back and buy a few more bags, cheaper than the little tiny bags come spring.
ONLY IF I CAN USE A CART!!
Wasn't like they were dog or chicken food bags I could throw over my shoulders they were soaked frozen solid blocks.
Good deal though we are set for awhile.
I will trade you one 1.5 cubic foot of organic potting soil for a roll of toilet paper
Even here in rural ny, 4.5hrs from NYC, certain things wiped out from the stores.
DW and my older DDs laughed at me yrs ago when I started semi prepping. Several yrs ago we just lost power for a few days, been prepared ever since. (short term but but better than nothing) . Actually I've 'semi prepared' since 2000 when they thought everything was going to crash.
They said "Why" and laughed...you never know... natural disaster, man made disaster, scary emp that destroys our electric grid, never know, better to be prepared before not try after. They thought I was nuts but we are good right now.
Told DW the city people will come up here and clean us out, millions of them they have to go somewhere. She said nah they ain't going to come this far..
Last Fri , we usually shop on the weekends, she decided to go to town NOW, closest grocery store small town, wow, of course tp gone, any rice gone, all flour gone (didn't even know people still knew what to do with that), most canned food gone, bread gone, still lots there so not a wasted trip. One thing she did notice, the crowd, and all the NYC accents, strange people not locals, and the NJ license plates in the parking lot..
"Told you this would happen, imagine if this was a major disaster"...
One thing I never thought of or bought, is tp, good thing I like to save $ and usually get big packs so we still have a 12pk, hopefully the freaks are stocked up now.

Anyone remember, of course you do you'all are old... Jamesway must have been '95 they closed because I graduated '94 and a buddy of mine worked there after we graduated and it wasn't long after. They in their bathroom to dry your hands had a towel dispenser that was a cloth towel, that you could pull to find a dry spot, just one single cloth towel on a roll with a metal dispenser like the paper one's are now. Super sanitary 
I feel so weird right now, washing my hands after returning from the store, and washing my beer cans before I drink from them
