Went to my neighbor’s house to watch the local news as we can’t get reception here and he’s on is own little plateau. He said the bank would only let him pull out $400 yesterday and said he’d be able to pull another $400 next week. First I’d heard of that. I had the wife hit the ATM a couple of days in a row for $500 each. Glad I did.
I gotta say, it’s a helluva time to be a prepper and be a step ahead of everyone else. Seeds running out, already got mine. Chicken hatcheries swamped, did that last Fall and they’ve given us 4 dozen eggs so far. Banks limiting cash, got some a couple of weeks ago. Stocked up on food a week before everyone else after seeing pics of Italy’s empty shelves.
Nursing home that my wife works at just sent out a text saying they’ll be handing out masks to all employees and they’re to be worn at all times and left at the facility at the end of the shift. What was odd is they say they’ll supply brown paper bags for people to keep them in. I told her to bring a ziploc from home. When you buy a mask for 3M spray painting, it comes with a ziplock mylar coated plastic bag to prevent the charcoal from absorbing things while not in use. I have no idea what kind of masks they are or how long people are supposed to reuse them day after day. Don’t know if they’re planning on disinfecting them somehow. Guess she’ll find out next shift.
