Pandemic Question 4 YOU on Thankful Thursday

 


My pandemic question for you is, How many Mask do you own and How Many Styles/Types

I have 6 styles and 32 masks. There are 10 in the supply closet in the house and 22 in the car, 3 on dashboard and rest in glove compartment.

Above left to right, 
white t-shirt material, hard t breath, 10 pack from the YMCA, 
Black foam - works well but HOT in 90 degrees, thank you Jackie
Bottom blue STAR thank you Linda.. worn in YMCA only, easy to wash and wear
Amazon blue paper, worn in and out short trips in that last no more than 5 or 10 minutes
N95 saved for GERMMY places, hospitals etc. thank you Jackie


Did you know if you take the selfies in the dark car in the garage you look better? 
Just sayin





and the winner of the group wins Ugliest of all and Most comfortable of all
and is worn for long periods of time, like over an hour shopping in Wal-Mart.
I feel really stupid and NOTICALBE wearing it. but it hangs lose, I can breathe and it never fogs my glasses
I want this in black but can't find one.
I am thankful for the mask I have and for all those who wear them. Thankful to friends that have given me masks. Thankful that all of you are here saying What the Heck is MADsnapper up to now??

I have about as many as you do. My favorite here is the blue with the stars.

You DO look better in the garage!

I have stretch cotton homemade ones, which are both comfy and entirely washable... but I love that long-fronted style (A little Eastern-looking - alluring!) and may see if can manufacture a couple like that for myself. YAM xx

We have a potful but mostly we each have one favorite and wear those. Andy and I don't take selfies or look in the mirror. Both mirrors and cameras lie, so we don't encourage them.

I have 6 [4 masks & 2 gaiters]. Then, we have a box of 50 disposable ones (down to probably 40 by now) in the car.

Ann said...

I have no clue how many masks I have. I have 2 that were made by someone else, 1 store bought that someone gave me and all the rest are ones that I made myself. I pretty much just wear the ones that I made. I hate having them on and having my glasses steam up

Good tip about the selfies! I hate them when I look so washed out. Well, I have 2 masks and they are both the same...pink. I don't go out much so I don't have to wear one very often. That being said...I am off to Wally world this morning. I only go about once a month now! YAY!

Wow, I need to get busy! Counting my favorite 6 gaiters (buy 1, get 5 free) ..... I've a non-descript gray surgical type ..... a leopard-skin someone made but makes my ears stick straight out ... and 5-6 of the paper disposables. Hubby drives me nuts. He wears the same old disposable over and over and keeps it in the little drink compartment of his truck. Wonder if THOSE germs don't ward off Covid.

Rose said...

I have a bunch of the paper ones...probably half a dozen homemade. Like the disposable ones best of all.

My Mind's Eye said...

Jumping Catfish...you have variety and technicolor...just what we all need to keep things interesting.

I have 10 I made early on when elastic was non existent so the ear loops are made from ribbon. Then when I finally find elastic I made 10 more. These are all for me. I had 235,431 of the disposal masks I bought for Bryan. Yes that number is a slight exaggeration but not by far. LOL
Hugs and what a fun post

Next Tuesday on Happy Tuesday I have a tale of Kat and Rocky's growing friendship

I have no idea how many masks I have. For the smoke, I like the N95 masks a friend sent from Seattle. I have trouble breathing wearing any mask I've tried so far. But I don't go anywhere for long periods so it's OK. I don't have a garage, so I guess I'm out of luck. But I noticed the other day that my left cheek, the one that faces out while driving in the desert sun, has a million more wrinkles than the right one which faces your passenger if you had one. Swedish skin should stay in Sweden where the sun is not so strong, was my conclusion.

We probably have about 25. Most of them are too large for me. I have a narrow pinchy little face. I ordered one with adjustable ear loops, so we'll see.

I have about 10 cloth masks that my daughter in law made for me and also some that she made for Dave. We wear them off and on. Fortunately they come out pretty good from washing and drying.
I mostly use the disposable paper ones. They seem to fit my face the best and I can pinch them so my glasses don't fog.
By the time I am finished grocery shopping I am completely finished with wearing the mask..can't stand it any longer but I will wear them for everyone's sake.

Okay that last mask is a hoot - I don't think I could wear it - lol. I have a lot of paper like ones - but cloth masks about 5. :)

Ruth Hiebert said...

Well, you have me beat. I only have about 6-8 masks and all are similar. So far my favorite is the last one I got. It is black, and there is a larger bee on it and below that the word kind.

I feel sorry for you guys having to wear masks every time you go out like my daughter does in Melbourne. We don't have to wear masks but some people do. We are asked to wear them in doctor's rooms. We have zero community passed cases and 6 in quarantine from overseas. We are lucky to have a tough premier and a community that follows the rules.

I have 8 cute masks along with a lot of medical masks. I wear a double mask to doctor appointments and I wear glasses. Two of my masks have filters in them. I do want to get a bandana one but haven't ordered one yet. I also have a shield but it just steams up!

My Tata's Cottage said...

We started ordering our groceries on line and pick up. We use the disposable masks although the hubby has navy blue cloth ones he has to wear at work. I had a retty pink snd purple fairy mask a friend sewed. It disappeared......hmmmmm... Love the photos. :-)
