At the Stop and Shop near me, they put a plastic bag lined garbage can next to the shopping cart return, with a sign on it for gloves disposal.
It seems to have worked because there were quite a few gloves in it, and none on the parking lot ground.
 
I think one of the slight positives for this summer might be a greater appreciation of nature. I have spent two weeks watching wild birds coming and going from the feeders that I have to take in at night. The main reason for that is I had a 200 pound black bear on my back porch Christmas night, that will wake you up quick. I almost spilled a fine bottle of imperial Russian stout to encourage said bear to go somewheres else. Two weeks later I had a male bobcat stroll through the same backyard.
So enjoy nature and try to make the best of a difficult situation. We are all in the same boat, positivity goes a long way toward improving the spirit. That being said I am going to make some peanut butter fudge to further relax.
 
Well I want you guys to know that I'm open to all sides of the argument (enough so that I would post something from Fox News!), that I'm paying attention, and that we obviously all have the ultimate common goal of keeping our country well. We shouldn't let a disagreement about means divide us.

Good to hear. Good idea.

Mrs Fixer had a friend over to pick up some dog food, since she works at a pet store and her friend is avoiding stores lately. The lady did not want to come in the house since she has under lying health issues. I popped open the door and said "hello, by the way we are just as scared of you as you are us". We chatted a bit, outside on a nice spring day, all 15 feet apart under two oak trees just now budding. By the time she left all of our eyes were watering from all of the pollen. She chuckled and said "now that my allergies have kicked in everybody is going to think of me like a Salem witch". I reminded her she could rob a bank with a booger and Mrs Fixer told her if people get to close stick your finger up your nose, hold it out and shout "step away from the booger, step…away…from…the…booger".
 
Maybe it's my imagination but I'm noticing more kooky drivers lately. There is far less traffic on the roads lately; my downtown area is as deserted as it is on Christmas morning. But there seems to be a higher percentage of drivers taking crazy chances, maybe because they think there are fewer people watching?

I gotcha the first time :rolleyes:.
No, old hat from my former profession. CBCP (Certified Business Continuity Professional) is a certification from DRI (Disaster Recovery Institute). Seemed kinda timely to drag it out again.

Yes, it does keep you on your toes. I have worked third shift for the last 11 years and it is about 50 feet from my house to the garage. I usually walk out in the dark with at least 1000 lumen light for safety. Many times I have had deer out past my garage that makes it interesting.
