Annie, I followed your Facebook page when your dear husband was ill, praying for you and your family.It's just me and DD but we use our dishwasher maybe 2x a week? I use a lot of paper plates and plastic ware LOL.
On the Diet Coke thing I am stocking up a little bit but I think there is actually an expiration date. Not sure but I probably go thru a 12 pack a week. Used to be probably twice as much but I have been drinking a lot more water. I like the plastic bottles but they're a little pricey. Trust me if it comes down to the plastic bottles will be bought.
I am back to every shopping trip just picking up a couple extras here and there- toiletries, paper goods, canned goods and cleaning products. I have quite a bit on hand but if things go south I just want to have as much as possible to get us through as long as possible.
DD decided to put off college until spring. I have mixed emotions. With everything going on, I'd rather her be here during the time leading up to the election and not in Los Angeles. But I want her to start her life. She had a great thing going with her music here in town and performing at several venues. Everything stopped in March and I know she misses performing live. I want her to get out there and live life and have fun and learn to be on her own. Right now, she has bought into all the panic and is afraid to leave the house due to Covid. She got really upset because when I bought my new car I took a photo with the sales guy and had removed my mask. He still had his on as did the guy taking the pic but when I say upset I mean complete M.E.L.T.D.O.W.N. I try to talk to her that you know it's good to be cautious but I refuse to hideout in fear. I am not sure if some of it is since losing her Dad she has a very big fear of losing me. All I can do is pray.
My gut says it may be as you mentioned, your daughter is afraid of losing you. You are security for her.
I wish you and our entire TB family God's protection as we face these uncertain times.
