...worried, nervous... Trying to stay positive...what if you can't bulk buy?
We have enough here for about a week, give or take. Im trying not to go anywhere at all...
That said, Im low on funds and we are borderline on a few essentials like milk, bread, pet food. Only had $10 to put in the tak the last time it was almost empty.
I am hoping my folks can send me a check to help with a little. I can at least go to a drive thru bank and deposit. Other wise I am not working...jsut doing gig's for local friends who have websites etc that need work. The one regular I saw bi weekly is 72 and we are trying to do everything remotely, but that also means she is paying me less often.
This is the thing. I dont *want* to have to go out once a week to hustle and scrape by, I wish I could just hunker down for a few weeks...but the reality is that I am going to have to go out at some pont to either pick up a check, get more stuff, etc.
Every time I do, I get worried
Yes I take precautions, etc. I never liked hand sanitizer and now I use it everywhere... yuck
But Im just feeling uneasy about the next few weeks and each time I have to go out or interact I am scared I am endangering myself or my family.
How do we deal with this?
How many more people are living by scraping by like me and can't go hoard for weeks of supplies so we *HAVE* to go out from time to time and break isolation?
I'm working on getting some other income squared away, in the meantime, I don't know. Im just surviving I guess...
