Gracious..I think I should stop complaining about my cold days...showed it to my DH.
Do you know how much there is so far ??? Give or take ?
But I must say, it looks like a scene one would see on a Christmas Card.

Junie, we got about 6 to 8 inches since last night...I also still have 3-4 feet of Winter snow that needs to melt.

That is a lot of snow, Sunny...I wish Tina could share her weather as well.
I hope everyone 's Earth Day was good. I just did some house cleaning and replanted some green onions and basil for mine.....I also set my potted lilac bush out to get rained on....it should be one happy bush.

Goodnight wavy

Not that it lived but I bought a miniature 3 colored lilac bush. I assume it was grafted..but as I said it didn't t make it past the first season.

Good morning. Coffee is good.

lilacs flourish here....I guess they like a Winter's freeze before blooming.

Hello!.I have been busy all day. Then this evening my DD texted me saying they were making a grocery list and did I need anything ? Well yes of course I did...but I only gave her a partial list.
And guess what! There is no milk to be bought at the Sam's club that is close to here..Now on TV, the news says that farmers are having to dump their milk., As there is no market....so does anyone want to tell me how there is no milk in all of a large Sam's club ???? Couldn't they buy the milk from the farmers that had milk to sell ????

Lucky for Carol she has powdered milk on hand...My coffee will thank me. LOL

I'm not sure how the system works in the U.S. Junie, but here there is a quota system. You know ahead how much milk you are allowed to produce and sell. If you pump more than your share into the milk truck then you are fined because it is taking the next farmer's 'allowed amount' to be put in the truck.

The reason for a lot of the shortages is the closures of the facility that packages the item. The stock they have is then limited to the stores, meaning less or none is put on the shelves. We hear of more closures each day.

I am making up my grocery list to be called in an hour.

Wow Sunny a little snow goes a long way for me. I can't imagine.

Junie so far we can find milk but there are no paper products or cleaning products.

I have cleaning products coming from Amazon. They may have refrigerated items but as I think it would cost me almost $14.99 to have those items shipped, I didn't even check.

I would like to go check the local stores, but at this time that is not a good option. I think I may see if I can order powdered milk...

I am not envious of your snow and I will not tell you our weather people say we will hit 100* next week... but on the other side hubby is mowing and watering now...

I have been trying to make hubby an appt to get bloodwork done, dr ordered... have to do it online and they are only working half days evidently.. or less... finally got website to work and it said closed for day... so will try again Mon morning... sure glad it's not life or death...
My inlaws here are still letting people come visit every day... told them we would stay gone for the duration... they just don't think it's real and she is diabetic... and over 70.. at least she is making him come to town for shopping,, but they don't have extra food put away, hope all his drinking buddies will share when they run out..

Well got laundry to get done... and a couple more masks to make so have a good day all... stay well and safe...

Sorry for your temps, Nana and sorry for your inlaws. But, it is smart for you to stay away..

Our stay at home order will be lifted May 4 th
but a state of Emergency has been extended until June 14 th.

Sometimes I think this will go on forever.......

Our temps are stretching up there, Sherri. Keep cool.
Nope, not going out until numbers come way down. My county has 1608 confirmed cases and 77 deaths. My state has 37,369 confirmed and 1469 dead. Not doing anything to add to those numbers. The dates the politicians have mean very little to me.

I agree with you, Tina. I too will stay in until I feel it is safe.
As of 2 p.m. today.....
We have tested 67,017 people for the covid-19 in the state of Missouri.
There have been 6625 cases in the state with 262 deaths
In our county there have been 59 cases so far and 1 death

Either there are less people in our county, we are social distancing well, or it has not really "arrived" here yet. I think I will wait a while yet before I go out I think I should have a better idea of the answer to that question before I decide.

Goodnight. See you all tomorrow.

Sweet dreams, Carol.
On the confirmed cases, there hasn't been much testing. I think if we could test all 2.15 million people in my county there would be a lot more. I think when they get the anti-body test revved up, they will find a lot more people had it than is now known.
Same with LA county to my immediate left with a population of 10.12 million. There are a lot of peeps here.
Good night all.

Good morning, They opened some beaches here in California. But not the parking lots for them. It has been a zoo there. It makes me glad to not be anywhere near them. I also foresee a bump in the numbers.

I think we may end up having to be careful with all our elderly and compromised until we develop a vaccine or something. That means me. I am ready to see what the future brings.
