Rumor has it we are going on lockdown shortly.  The governor will be shutting us down just like some of the other states meaning our bars and restaurants etc.  He's making the announcement later today.  

If you or someone you know isn't prepped yet, might be time to do so.  I just made a final stop for a few sundry items although grocery stores will remain open.  Btw, the Walmart and Target stores seem to be restocking quite well.  I even found meat again at Ingles and my family members found toilet paper and paper towels along with two jugs of water.  

It's the little things....😊

Our state (Michigan) is closing restaurants, bars, gyms, casinos, etc at 3 pm today.   Right now they will allow driveup takeout.

Tuanks @Laura14 .  I read something on Facebook a few minutes ago that was kind of like that. I'm going to go start my car and see how I'm doing gas wise. I know it's almost full, but I'm going to doublecheck.

@gidgetgh My sister has a friend who works for the CDC and they were seriously considering it this morning.  She said about an hour ago the decision has been made and we'll be told shortly.

1. @Laura14 : Thanks. Just returned from Walmart to pick up RX. Shelves empty. Was trying to buy pantry staples and pick up needed items for our favorite waitress but everything she needed was sold out. 
   Just received email from stepdaughter and grandkids in Duluth and they have the virus. Prayers for all. Southern Bee

Forgive me, but I just went up the street and topped off my tank. I know there is plenty of gas available, but you know how we are in a panic and with my husbands health situation as it is, I can't have gas issues also.

@gidgetgh I thought about it!  I have over half a tank so I decided to risk it for now.
