Puzzling Things Are Happening


While chatting with my friend Madeline and her husband, on my home phone, I heard several loud crackles, and my kept phone breaking up, and I heard my cell phone in the other room screeching.

I also heard Bob yelling down the hall what is that???? another puzzle is why did he not look at it instead of screaming down the hall? Yes, he knew I was on the phone.

The puzzling answer was the above message requiring me to CONFIRM I got it. They have sinced closed the beaches in Florida..

. What puzzles me is below. There is not one roll of TP left on any shelf in any store here in our city....
That Said, why is there no Imminent extreme alert on my phone about this!

Which is worse? Crazy people on the beaches or  NO TP!


I found this on bing search while looking for TP puns. I skipped the puns. to see it all

I may not need TP any more after seeing this.

We have some.....and I will be looking for more in a week or so. Desperate times bring desperate measures....

It's a bit of irony, really, that I order my TP via big A and had a load come in the summer last year... and am now down to only two 6-packs. Just when I need to reorder, the stuff becomes rarer than hen's teeth. Being used to checking for spiders in OZ, these images don't phase me. YAM xx

Good gravy marie!!

UGH! It is smart to keep your distance when out in public. We have to do our weekly shop today. I hope they have something left on the shelves. That is one creepy spider! Take care and enjoy your day!

I didn't need TP but grabbed a 12 pack when we still had some on the shelf. That's one thing that we haven't been able to restock. Our last delivery didn't have any.
After looking at those pictures I think I'm going to be freaking out and double checking my TP before I use it. No more going into a dark bathroom for me.

Along came a spider, a TP-roll rider . . .YIKES!

YIKES! No more going to the bathroom in the dark!
… But to answer your question, I'm more afraid of crazy humans than a shortage of TP. Wondering if sales of bidets aren't about to spike? (*grin*)

My Mind's Eye said...

Yikes that must have been a very very loud alert if Bob heard it. LOL

MS never in all my 71 years would I imagine T.P. as a luxury. The world w/o tp is scary. I knew there was a reason (other than being ME) that I have always insisted the tp be placed on the dispenser to roll from the top.

I might need it worse if I went to get a piece and saw something like one of them!

I have had one of those on my TP too and a huge one inside my toilet - in the bowl. He got flushed fast. I'm glad they are making a big deal about your beaches. Now ours were full of people over the weekend. Fully clothed because it's cold here, still. After that they closed the parking lots, which may help since no one goes anywhere without a car here.

EWwwww...really Sandra???
This didn't go well with my morning coffee...!!!!!
Thats totally gross...
TP...I'm glad I have enough to get us through this mess.
I do think of all the people home from their jobs and now all the school kids home too. The Bathroom is a much busier place these days for many.
Spring Break and kids and the beach...how will they ever survive now?

Still no toilet paper or paper towels on the shelves here. Has anyone heard why it's taking so long for it to be restocked?

I read that our unsung heroes, apart from the obvious medical and all those other people who are most definitely on the front lines, are the drivers who deliver these goods to the stores. They are the ones who make sure we get fed. I guess I took this a little bit for granted before, but no more. The suppliers must be scrambling to fill up those semi-trucks, and with all the panic buying, hard to do. Our stores are asking that we only buy $30 worth of goods at a time here, maybe following other areas in the states. Yikes on the photo of the TP. I have also read that some of those spring breakers are now coming down with the virus. One lad said he has never experienced anything as awful.

Those crazy Spring Breakers ruined it for everyone in your area...We are lucky, there is never anyone on our beaches(the water doesn't get above 60 degrees and the air is usually colder than that).
Stay Safe!

Chatty Crone said...

A little late after spring break partying to close the beaches I'd say.

I am sorry about your tp problem - we have a few.

Not so sure about those spiders!!!!!!!!!!!

~Lavender Dreamer~ said...

Oh my....you did find some scary toilet paper! Hope it doesn't look like that when it finally comes back on the shelves! Hugs to you both!

Debby@Just Breathe said...

I'm praying we will be able to get some TP when we run out. We are still good for at least a month. (don't like spiders!) I'm glad they finally closed the beaches!
