I do feel sorry for her. Like you, we keep a good store and freezers
full always. We are fairly remote, with no shops nearby so I don't like to
take chances. I suppose anyone living near shops who can normally get out
easily don't need to worry so much. Times like these are not really
expected I suppose.

I normally keep a good stock but we've been on lockdown longer than most.
We're only allowed one trip to the store every two weeks and things are
being rationed. I did get paper towels today but there was a limit of one
package. So 6 rolls as that was the only kind they had.

How do they know? Are they issuing "grocery store trip" rationing cards?

The county she's in doesn't say anything about limits on grocery store trips:

This is not a Bothell thing. It's Washington state.

And once again, I don't *live* inn the city of Bothell. I'm in
unincorporated Snohomish county. I do have a Bothell address. The city of
Bothell is in King county.

We're only allowed one trip to the store every two weeks and things are
being rationed. I did get paper towels today but there was a limit of one
package. So 6 rolls as that was the only kind they had.

Thanks! Angela and I will work together now. We will each shop at a
different store. That way if one store is out of something, the other person
might be able to get it at their store. Winco did have paper towels but her
car isn't very big and took her friend shopping because she has no car.

Interesting. My friend lives just 20 minutes away from Bothell in Edmonds.
Theyre not restricted from going to the store more often than once every 2
weeks.

The mandate applies to the whole state. It started out when he was in a
press conference. He said he went to the store and was shocked to see people
his age and up in the store. He said none of them should be in there. Why he
was in there...dunno. But he then decreed that people 65 and over should not
leave their house for any reason. They were to send a younger person to get
things for them.

He then went on to add there were too many people out and about and the rest
of us should only make one trip to the store every two weeks and stay in our
own neighborhood.

In subsequent press conferences, he has brought up the two week thing so
many times that Dori Monson keeps playing a sound bite of it.

I don't blame people for not listening to his press conferences. Most people
I know, don't. He's hard to listen to and talks in circles. I usually have
my radio on during he day so I do often hear him.

There's a guy on the e-bicycle group I belong to and he lives in Bothell.
Not one single time has he said a word about shopping only once every two
weeks. Nor has he said anything about cell phone tracking or helicopter
surveillance or the lack of fresh vegetables there in the gulag of Washington
state. I guess that's because he knows when to get to the grocery store for
a good selection.

And he probably doesn't listen to Coast To Coast AM. He's just blissfully
unaware like most people.

I did not say there was a lack of fresh vegetables in Bothell. I don't know
what foods are in Bothell. I rarely shop there. Much better prices
elsewhere.

Ask if he's a gardener and keeps goats. If so he never has to buy food
or pay for it.

I'm from Edmonds. They sure are. It applies to the whole state. But
seemingly the only other person I know who heard the press conference where
Inslee said this is my friend Jim. He repeated back to me what he heard and
it was exactly what I heard.

I suggest you read he
https://coronavirus.wa.gov/spread-fa...mean-stay-home

and he
https://coronavirus.wa.gov/you-and-your-family#grocery
How can I stay safe when going grocery shopping?
You can take several steps you can take before, during and after you
go grocery shopping to keep yourself and others safe.
Before you go
Only make needed trips. Don't go to the store if you're sick, and be
extra cautious if you or a loved one is more likely to get sick from
COVID-19.
Wash your hands.
Consider ordering groceries online for pick up or delivery.
Check for special hours. Many stories offer special shopping hours for
people over 60, pregnant people, and those with medical conditions.
At the store
Wear a cloth face covering that covers your nose and mouth.
Use hand sanitizer or an antiseptic wipe to clean the handles of a
grocery cart or basket.
Keep your distance of at least six feet between you and others, even
in the checkout line.
Cover your coughs and sneezes.
Don't touch your face.
Save some for your neighbors. Only buy what you need so there will be
enough for everyone.
When you get home
Wash your hands.
Practice food safety. Don't disinfect your groceries. Wash your fruit
and vegetables as you normally would.

As I said, check your state government COVID-19 resource pages and
stop repeating some radio newsreader with an urge to show off.

Your friend probably isn't a k00k who thinks the rantings of a right-

I almost feel sorry for you , sitting here with a freezer full of
various meats and a pantry well stocked with all the things we like .
We've even got fresh lettuce in the fridge and green onions growing both
out in the garden and in a big plastic pot out on the deck . Fresh
tomatoes would be nice , but all that's available here are commercially
grown tomato-shaped objects that have no flavor . I can wait for our
home grown .

I do feel sorry for her. Like you, we keep a good store and freezers
full always. We are fairly remote, with no shops nearby so I don't like to
take chances. I suppose anyone living near shops who can normally get out
easily don't need to worry so much. Times like these are not really
expected.

I can see that in the future, more people will keep stocks the way we
do.

This pandemic could change views on many things.

I was able to get a little fresh meat today, but mostly more frozen/prepared
food.

* Y'all got it bad there , around here it's pretty much business as

I think the problem is that we can only shop every two weeks. We are not
allowed to go just for eggs or milk. So we try to think of everything we
might need until we get to the store again.

There may be rules like that because Washington, specifically Seattle,
was hit so hard with Covid-19. They may be working to cut down on the
transfer of virus to communities farther away from Seattle proper.

I lived there in tacoma (83rd st?) and also later in tillicum WA,
just over the I5 overpass to madigan army hospital, where I worked
as a us army medic.

We saw a few psychotics there, but not many. It was long ago, so
,maybe the nut jobs are increasing now.

Who the heck is keeping track of how many times you go to the grocery
store? I'd like to know how they're doing that.

We are really on our honor. They are tracking us on our cell phones, via
cams, helicopters and also those "pass" things installed in cars. Not sure
what they are. I don't have one. However...

This is the country I live in and this Sheriff won't enforce the rules.

They track you through your phone? Leave it at home, then.

I think it is just another Julieism. I searched for something official
for Washington state and got nothing. Given Julie's record if
credibility issues, I am going to have to assume it was just more
Bothell BS.

That would be rather dangerous. The last time I left home without it (an
oversight) my car was hit. I couldn't call the police and the woman who hit
me, drove off. Plus, what if the car broke down? I'm disabled!

flashing for bee hive equipment) , and we'll probably pick up something
