  2. Well, Easter will be interesting...we always order online from a local restaurant/bakery that is just wonderful. My screen order is blank, they gave me corporate online order number, mail box is full. It's not like we're having a huge family dinner...but darn it, traditions still mean something. I am not going out to find something "special" for the three of us. I'm disappointed. Oh well...

  10. Our Costco is doing this, as well. Also, you are not allowed to pick up a shopping cart. They spray and wipe it down, give it to you when they check your card. It's the waiting in line that needs work. No markers like in other places to show 6 foot separation.

  15. No paper products to be found in five trips. Lowe's had Lysol wipes and PineSol in an enormous container. We made a Costco run yesterday, they were out of the basic hoarding items, but what they did have was plentiful. The freezer section was full, milk available, only brown eggs, though. The produce has not been fresh, rather wilted and brown. We stocked up on frozen veggies.

  23. Dd used Saxon for Algebra I. I will say that Algebra I definitely showed the cracks and weaknesses for dd. We brought her back home in 8th grade, had definitely lost some skills. We repeatedly had to go back to Saxon's Algebra 1/2 for reference. I also used another program to fill in gaps (can't remember which one). I'd try and stick with it...you've gotten this far. On the SAT, the Heart of Algebra questions are very crucial. I think Saxon does a good job of covering these bases.
