The wife and i were talking about what we could do to help during this panic! We decided to pay our neighbors house payment this month. The neighbor is a single parent, with two teenage children. He does a good job with the kids, but is layed off because of this crap! What are others doing?

Like most, I live pay check to pay check (2 divorces does that).
I do make a special point of thanking the stockers and cashiers at the grocery store. They’re as much on the front line of this as anyone and speaking with them there are some damned stupid and abusive shoppers out there.

I'm helping by not spreading it around. We're on day 13 of not leaving our property. Would like to be in a position to help out financially but our unemployment system has been down. I still haven't been able to register two weeks into layoff and have no idea how long it may be before I have anything coming in.

She is laid off too. She has s handicap son and another that ain’t worth a fuuuck.

I'm holding my sh*t in until this is all over so as to allow others who need toilet paper to have more access to it. Hey, I'm full of it anyway, little more don't hurt...

Would like to be in a position to help out butt.. Go downtown and shake your money maker on the corner. You should be flush by Saturday night.

Mostly just have a decent supply of food and some cash on hand. Plenty for wife and I but i doubt the kids are as prepared so we have double what we need to help them out if necessary.

I washed my hand twice today, while singing Kum ba yah. Does that count as being positive enough?

We gave some toilet paper to a family that didn't have any.

I'm living like a hermit having as little as possible contact with anyone, just groceries post office once in a while.
Checked in on all the neighbours. By text. We're good.

I'm going to donate a box of dust/surgical masks to the local hospital. 50 masks is not much, but maybe it will help a little.
Other than that, checking on neighbors making sure everyone is good on supplies.
