That is pretty much how it feels here!  All non-essential stores and businesses have shut down...grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations...which are all considered essential are allowed to open limited hours.  Parts of government....ones considered non essential, schools, dental clinics, physiotherapy, hair salons...almost every place has been closed since the beginning of the week.

Mr. Seventies did make a quick trek to the grocery store...to pick up a few things...even now he reports it was very busy and some shelves are quite bare.  Like other places...people are panicking and binge buying...you cannot teach intelligence is what I say!

Some of my bedroom decor items have arrived, I may start working on the bedrooms over the weekend...trying to keep busy.  We've been able to take advantage of some great weather and walk with Liesel...today it's going to continue to rain until early afternoon.

Since my birthday is tomorrow...and while we won't be having a family celebration...Mr. Seventies felt a birthday cake was still required!  Since our regular cake shop is closed...he sweetly picked up one while at the grocery store.  They were unable to customize it...but gave him the Happy Birthday to place on the top.  My hubby is the most thoughtful, sweet guy!  I'm sad we can't celebrate with our family.. but does this mean I don't need to turn a year older?  Hahaha...

Baby grand daughter will be coming into this world at a crazy time in our lives....but we are beyond happy and excited nonetheless.

Now...let's see if she can be the ultimate birthday present and arrive on March 21st!!
