It does look like you are peeing in the shower. Don't worry, we all do really.Fine times we find ourselves in. I'll spare all the other stuff, but a reminder to look after each other and ask the question of R U OK? That's in the real world and here in Lit as well.
After my ranting on about panic buying, I accidentally joined the idiot brigade on a shipment. Without getting into the family details, we have always had an open book policy where any question will get an answer without worrying how it looks for you personally. Part of the open book is also a don't ask going the other way, and we have always had boxes of condoms and a bunch of other things in the bathrooms and topped up. It's not part of my contraceptive methods so rarely have need for one, but having noticed the supply was a bit low in the house I went online to order some more in, figuring to leave the stuff in the supermarkets for those that might need it. Two boxes of assorted and one of ultrathins and this is what turned up. I didn't realise that that the bulk "pro" packs were for 144 in each. Well priced mind you.
So having received enough to keep a small village barriered up for the Spring, I have been copping the comments across the dinner table all weekend about how Mum thinks we are like her, Mum thinks we had better organise a party, how many different combinations would you have to do to go through a 144 box, etc. Cheeky. The bloke's "well we did do a couple of 2 box weekends back when" got me blushing for some reason, and they all piled on.

Shower time photo for a bit of fun. The low angle on the chair outside of the glass rendered most of them to the folder but there were a couple of not too exposed ones. And no, despite a comment, I wasn't pee-ing in that one, just water running down and off my more streamlined bits.

Strategy and report time this afternoon. I was having a bit of a creative block so ended up resorting to throwing the knickers off. It has always been something I have done when mind blocked and sure enough I managed to work my way through it with a bit of fresh air. My brain is in my knickers is perhaps not an insult.

And lastly, a public service announcement. Forms like these are starting to pop up for people to print. It's a good idea for neighbourhoods to organise, or even for people who you don't know yet but potentially might be on their own, especially in highly mobile areas of the world. Look out for your neighbours and hopefully if it is your turn they might look out for you in getting things done. Cook a casserole and double up, the frozen extra portion might be something you can deliver to a neighbour.
Please become aware of those families that will have to isolate completely for a long while because of immunodeficiency and other factors. See if you can't help them out with fresh veges and the odd cooked meal to vary their existence. Mow their lawns, weed their gardens.
Be kind, put this crazy behaviour behind, and FFS, lift.

I love the song! I am going to have to download that from him.
