These are timely suggestions to share. Many families will need food assistance and the Red Cross is asking for blood donations.

Roy Kelley hi Roy... the need is great in "normal" times. It's almost impossible to wrap one's head around how much greater that need is now during the pandemic.

Hi Nina - I went to the supermarket at 6am this morning when it is only for seniors and everything is clean but they still were not stocked with all of the things I needed.

Ron and Alexandra Seigel thanks, Alexandra... there's really more that we can do a little expense while we are house-bound than many people realize.

Grant Schneider hi Grant... that's the problem with those early shopping hours... because the stores now close early, they get cleaned but there's no restocking going on in the night.

Good morning, Nina Hollander I went to the butcher today and bought extra to give to a neighbor who would not typically shop there.... I do that whenever I make a visit there...usually twice a month...

Hi Nina Hollander - for the first time since the outbreak of "Fake News," isn't it wonderful how all the Governors are getting the same information from the President and the Team he has put together to combat the spread of COVID-19. We received similiar information here in TX too.

Be safe!

Nina Hollander - Propaganda is not my cup of tea. The funny thing happened to me the other day when I went to turn on the remote. I started thinking about the many years I lived without a T.V. set and I did just fine and I stayed abreast of information that was true and positive. All that changed when friends gave me a T.V. in exchange for pet sitting. One can survive without it!

What caught my attention was the blood  donations.  That is a lot of loss, for the Charlotte area.

Debe Maxwell, CRS good morning, Debe... I'm very happy to see how people in my neighborhood are coming together to help each other. And then... there are the clients who insist as I'm one of the "elderly" that I not leave my house but call them to shop for me. (Like that's going to happen! But I appreciate the good thoughts.)
