Going shopping again :(

Eating some cereal and checking all the online info you can about the stores and what they plan to do in the current crisis to make sure you really know what is going on with them. The stores you need are still open but limited to what you can get others are not even open, the post from Mrs West telling people she is not opening up until she has done inventory after yesterdays mad rush causes a lot of people to panic. Luckily the mega mart stating it will remain open for its customers needs but with some restrictions, opening time changes and a larger police presence on site has managed to keep most people calm for now at least.

The places that have not even really changed with what has happened are the furniture department store, the cloths stores and the bank. It seems all they have done is take the mask and glove advice or at least that is all you are getting from their posts. " Right ladies a sneaky plan as we have all had the virus we do not need to fear catching it again for now at least, I say we hit the mega mart for food in three separate groups not getting to much but we will make a list to work too for each of us, then I will see if I can get some new bedding maybe a bed frame and mattress from the furniture store what do you say". If you cannot get a bigger bed you are just going to change your parents mattress and bedding and move the dam thing into your room as it feels wrong to do it in their bedroom.

Both Stella and Rachael think on it and agree to the first part but point out how you will get it back as no way will they be doing any sort of delivery service at the moment. Having thought of that you point out the garage at the end of the back yard, " dad is an inventor of well construction aids and so has a truck out there to move his prototypes around or the stuff he needs to build what he comes up with its not that big but it will do the trick if I take the top off". Also really glad you dad was such a douche about making you turning it over once a week and driving it around the block too as you know the thing runs and how to drive the thing.

In the end lists are made while you manhandle the back off the truck and that is when you find another new issue as the thing normally take two people to move and you do it on your own and it felts like nothing. Not wanting to say anything for now you return in doors have a quick wash and get changed before been handed your list. Stella and Rachael have decide that one will take the mini van and the other Rachael's husbands SUV as no one will think that odd for Rachael to be driving it and the mini van is just that, you will take the truck and stop off at the furniture store first, you will then meet meet up with the others either back home or close by depending on how long things take for all of you to do what you all need to do.

Leaving at different times mainly as you need the space to get the truck out in the first place you are the last to leave and are soon on the road heading to Brighter homes furniture department store. Driving around town you see a lot of window watches as you pass by houses and a few sad signs here and there, the ambulance going full pelt towards somewhere , patrol cruisers as well now and then pass you with their lights going full blues and twos at speed. Even a few houses have signs on them saying infected keep out, how true that is you do not know but it is still not a great thing to be seeing as they all look the same and very official looking to you.

Pulling into the parking lot of Brighter homes the place is dead apart from four cars an SUV and a motor cycle, you are pretty sure these all must belong to staff as well. Entering the store the greeter is taken by surprise as you walk in but not us much as you are.
