Because we're on lockdown and not supposed to leave our house. I am in the
high risk group and due to my impending surgery, I have to be extra careful
not to get sick. So I am avoiding people. I did go to the dentist where
Angela works and also to get my hair trimmed as the general consensus is
that Governor Inslee will put us on further lockdown soon and close those
places. I don't want to have to go months without another haircut.

You are right in that I'm not well, but it's all medical. Not mental.

I tried Chewy once. Too expensive. Wasn't worth it. I get the Target brand
cat litter. I get treats and foods at Walmart. Jazzy only eats dry food.

Things should settle down with the online orders once people stop the
hoarding. Right now, they still are. And due to restrictions on in store
shopping, it's far quicker and easier to have the food delivered. I did make
a quick stop at the bread store last week only because I wasn't having luck
finding bread anywhere else. They didn't have what I wanted, but I did get
some bread and there is still a little bit left.
