Changes with the pandemic
Realized this morning I probably won’t be charging my Opus card for April. Feels wrong, but then so do most things at the moment.
Also realized that there hasn’t been a pedestrian killed in traffic in almost two weeks.

Let’s hope domestic murder-suicides don’t increase during this time of quarantine and self-isolation!

I doubt that they will. People seem to mellow somehow during these periods. Look at those on the cruise ships, some of them were locked in very tiny quarters with no natural light and survived without a murder/suicide.
For me, I would think the hard part is stopping my planning. I have a list in my head of things that I like to stock up on before the season, so I don’t have to run and get them when I’m at my busiest. Things that most people don’t even think of, like bandages, make-up removal wipes, garbage bags, towels, laundry soap, hand soap, etc. Things that I use in abundant quantities all summer long. On the other side, it means that I’m well stocked, three refills of hand soap. The washing soap that I use comes in a container of 1100 loads for $80… so plenty! I look for specials to fill in those supplies, so that I stock at the lowest price. And I have a freezer and pantry. Okay, I may be eating oatmeal for meals for a few months…

Been with Opus a l’annee for longer than I can remember… I doubt they’ll refund anything out of the goodness of their heart, but I wouldn’t say no to a rebate of any kind. Even if it’s for 2021.
