A week had passed and I did not leave home. I tend... more and more to reside in Lao Tzu's vision of existence; “There is no need to run outside for better seeing, nor to peer from a window. Rather abide at the center of your being; for the more you leave it, the less you learn. Search your heart and see if he is wise who takes each turn: THE WAY TO DO IS TO BE.” More and more I see the truth of this (digressing). As I said; a week had passed and I had not left home so... yesterday I went to Safeway for a few things.
There is STILL no toilet paper or like items. How can the hoarders not have acquired enough toilet paper by now? We haven't bought any in a month at least and still don't need any, having had a larger packet of them from some time ago. I wasn't looking for any. I just noticed it was all gone. Certain items with a longer storage life were also gone or much depleted; canned goods, pasta, and jars of sauce. A couple of weeks ago I wanted some egg noodles. The whole of the stock was gone. All the pasta was gone. For some reason, I was moved to bend over and look deeper into the bottom shelf where the egg noodles were to be found and WHAT DO YOU KNOW? There were two large bags stuck at the very back. This is how my invisible friends take care of me. Events like this occur so often that I have gotten used to it BUT I DO NOT TAKE IT FOR GRANTED!
