Feeling the years...
Yesterday I was at the grocery store to purchase needed supplies for some families that are out of work and out of food due to the panic brought on by the current media frenzy about the Covid-19 pandemic. The national government declared a "shelter in place" order for everyone (theoretically) with some very narrow exceptions, one being we're allowed to go buy groceries and supplies. Nothing said about for whom. So I got to our usual grocery store and found about 150 meters or so of people lined up. A nice young lady passed a nicely sanitized grocery cart to me and I pushed it around the backway instead of trying to push past every one already in line. Got up to the last person and kept my proper social distance. Then she says, "Sir, why don't you go to the front of the line. They're letting senior citizens in first!" Gee, thanks! AARP's already sent me junk mail, but now some random stranger calls me old? Sheesh! So I thanked her and stayed where I was. Got inside finally (only about a 40 minute wait) and found that some of the necessaries (beans and rice) were either lacking or too high of a price. Stocked up on other typical necessaries with greater than posted quantity limits and when I got to the front and told the checkout girl we were buying for several families she gladly helped bag them into the number of families we were shopping for. Stopped at two more stores on the way home and got the rest of the desired items to tide them over if they ration themselves properly.
One of the guys from church came over in the company delivery van he drives (my understanding is it's with the boss' permission) and brought some pasta to donate (they aren't well off by any means, but want to help too) and picked up the boxed and bagged groceries to deliver. Team effort to help mitigate the impact of the current situation for some folks at least.
Then today we got up and went about life as "normal", as normal as can be in the current situation, until it was 11:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. EDT. Tuned into the book of face and saw our younger son Tim promoted to Gunnery Sergeant. A very atypical event as folks were doing their best to "socially distance" themselves. The officer who swore him into his new rank is a young woman he trained years ago. IIRC he helped her make sergeant, before she went to Officers' Candidate School and is now a commissioned officer in the USMC - but he gave her the boost she needed back when. All in all a great day, just wish I didn't feel so old - when I'm only 30 or so, as far as my brain can fathom it anyway.

Re: Feeling the years...
Just like the rest of the Dems lies they tell ya your a senior
The more facts i hear about all this the sicker i feel, some facts i heard today are that the ratio of deaths caused by this virus in Calif. are three people per one million have died.
Another one is the 1,000 bed Hospital ship that was sent to New York has 20 beds filled.
I`m thinking this is all political aimed at Trump and him losing the election and all the spread of this is consequences of they`er plan.
I`m tired of this lying and deception and is taking years off my 65 year old mind by the day.
Grats to your son.

a false flag.. I'm sure people are dying.. they die every day.. what they aren't saying is how many die of pnuemonia every day? how many die in accidents every day? how many die of cancer every day? how many die of starvation every day? how many die of heart failure every day? this is the only possible way to put any of this in perspective.
NYC has gone out of its way to dishonor YHWH and Jesus and Holy Spirit. What did they think was going to happen? They are letting murderers out of jail. They mock YHWH and Yeshuah. What did they think was going to happen? The Creator of everyone and everything only lets sin go so far, and then he yanks the chain, er, whirlwind.
May we keep peace, Shalom, the Peace that surpasses human understanding in our hearts, and let the Judge and Savior take care of business. His perfect Love CASTS OUT FEAR...

Re: Feeling the years...
well, Doesn't the bible mention mankind has to suffer many things as a sign that the world comes is coming to an end, This could be one of the signs. I really don't see how we can survive too much longer with the way our society morals are heading. With Iran and n. korea hellbent on killing people, and with China (supposably) killing off the population with viruses, it kinda makes you wonder.

The problem was - to MY eyes she looked like a candidate to go through early her ownself, but was smart enough to keep that opinion to myself.

Re: Feeling the years...
If you use the logic above, you've been alive in 11 decades. Maybe your March wasn't that long, but it sure dragged out over here.Batman1939 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 05, 2020 10:06 am I have been alive in TEN decades. WOW, didn't think that would ever happen.
