During the shut down, I'm asking not so much what we have trouble buying, but what you miss doing?

I'd start with real church services, long distances family get to gathers, then maybe sports.

I'm missing some, I'm sure. Income not the least.

Going to: College World Series
Now: Church

Going to CiCi’s pizza

Nothing else matters or is/was affected

Just getting out and going somewhere to poke around, hit the library, grab a bite to eat.

Random Tuesday nights at the bar. Usually about 4 of us - playing music WE like.

I too am a Tuesday night at the bar guy. And I miss it.

Coffee at local gas station. They shut down the coffee bar. It was my treat for the day.

There's a good blue collar dive bar in De Pere we hit on Fridays for burgers - other than that, I've not been in a bar on a Sat night for drinking in forever. I like the mid-week vibe.

Taking the wife dancing. We like going!

Weekly gun swap meets, a group of old farts get together and swap lies, guns, ammo you name it. Tuesday and Thursday for 4-5 hours each morning it broke the week up and gave us something to look forward to. The buying/selling and horse trading gave us a little $$ to spend on our hobby.

Mom

Edit;

She was funny as hell!

Also - every sat am, the GF, her kids and her parents and I would do breakfast at a cafe where the kids work.

I'm usually not one to do things like that much, I never feel comfortable around people but I DO miss that Sat am English muffin, coffee and talk with her dad about shooting and cars.

I never thought I say it...

But I miss the busy, bustling traffic.

That traffic represented a strong economy, and people working, people shopping, and spending money they made.


The deserted streets and highways have a weird, not so good feeling to them.

America needs to go back to work again.

And play.

Yeah, me too. Been missing her for a while now. Funny how after their gone you remember all the easy stuff you could have done with them that you didn't. But she knew she was loved, always. Her and Daddy too. Can yu feel me bro?

Being a kid with a Trail 90 a model 62 Winchester strapped to the handlebars, and my fishing pole on the back rack.



Now with a great wife and three wonderful kids.....I would not go back if I could. Still nice to think about the old days.




I aint missing anything currently.

Church
Baseball

I think I miss going out to eat the most. Second would be taking my dog on our weekly trips to tractor supply. Don't miss work one fuggin bit. Always hated it. Do miss the paychecks though.

Of course I can!! 😉

I was looking forward to my son's first season of Varsity baseball, they would have had a good team this year. It really sucks for the seniors. The kid has a couple years left to play but they're going to lose some talent that will be hard to replace.

It's kinda like Night of the Comet

Mom is still here. So is Dad.


Before I got a drivers license, Ma and I would pop some corn and watch Walker, Texas Ranger on Saturday nights.


We still talk about that sometimes.



We will have to go up and pop some corn after this is all over.



NEVER turn down a cup of coffee with your folks.

Church is what I miss the most...that and not living in the fear of loosing my child or loved ones

I miss meeting with my Boy Scouts, we meet every week plus had to cancel two camping trips plus other activities. The younger kids enjoy leaning the new outdoor stuff they are exposed too and the older boys miss their weekly trap shooting.

Is there a shutdown?

No kidding! My son’s high school team started the season 4-0 before it got postponed/cancelled. Our girl’s basketball team was going to play for the state championship before it got postponed/ cancelled.
I still haven’t seen a game at the NASHVILLE Sounds new stadium.

I’m still working. Everything else is shut down it seems.

Haha! Youse guys had big, fancy lives!

I miss being able to just do what I want to do without thinking about a bunch of rules

Real church services

Being able to hang out w/ my hunting partners

Going out to dinner on Saturday night at our favorite little Italian restaurant. My way to relax after a tough week at work. We still go there for take-out, and I tip as well as when we'd eat there. Seems like the right thing to do.

Ice cold IPAs

my mistresses sticky thighs

Fat Albert with Bill Cosby

Puddin Pops......

Seeing the grandkids everyday! I told them to stay away. Their always packing some sort of diseases, the little urchins! But I loveum!

Bill Cosby?

My son's graduation commencement from A&M and his likely cancelled wedding ceremony.

DeFlave

Jim!!!



Rick hosed us!!!

Well done Rick!!!

😉😉😉😉

Hahaha!

The Geico Caveman brothers

sharp-breaking curve balls and those damned "rabbits" on sporting clay courses

Going out to dinner with the wife.
Hold on a sec, that was in another life, we live in W South Dakota and there is no place to eat.
Ha

I'm always antisocial and steer away from people, work by myself mostly except quail, snakes and cactus... put rebar in a big footing today ready for inspection. My life is pretty much the same. I guess I miss seeing my grandson most days as my wife was his daycare when the kids were at work, they are staying home so he is also.

Kent

Actually, not much. Social distancing? Been doing that for YEARS. Not much of a social person, don't need to hang out with a bunch of people. Got my close friends and stay in contact with them. Ranges have closed, so, just go out to the desert when I want to shoot. Damn, just thought of something: trout season opens up at the end of the month. Hmm, will have to see about that one.

no time to load ammo and shoot my rifles at my own range,reason we have grandkids are here 24/7 tell this crap is over,5 and 7 year olds need to be watched, schooled and fed which also means more dishes, more house work. but in some ways i really like my little grandkids here every day too. GRIN

What about Gus?

I miss all the good guys that used to post.

Bowling..... We were half way threw league and my team was in 1st place in the standings ...

Count Chocula and Donald Duck.
C19 got em....
Fugging chinese
Fugging up everything....

RIP Dudes.....


And Cici,s pizza buffet too I miss Cici,s alot...



And Bobafett star wars shampoo collector bottles.

in no particular order:

USPSA and Steel Challenge matches with my sons and friends
Will probably not have my sons (both) high school graduation ceremony
Getting together with friends and family to cookout, visit and play games on Friday nights.

Fruity Pebbles too.

I miss retards in public, fight over Boba Fett Suave shampoo collector bottles.


Fixt

Did I mention I was high at the time.

Bobafett!!!!!!

E
E
E
Eeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

I miss getting some too. This 6 foot crap is a stretch too far.

Here's my starter list ...

My Mrs. ... she's 500 miles away providing child care for a couple young grandsons whose parents work in health care
Seeing my kids and grandkids ... some are local, but we're all staying home these days
Spending time with my hunting buddies
Watching hockey and baseball on TV and watching the local Jr. hockey team play
Visiting shops without wondering if everyone else in the store is unknowingly breathing covid-19 into the air
Having a plan for spring and summer travel that we'll be able to follow through on

Yep...

Lol!!!!


Wouldnt been all lined up like that if God didnt want it too happen!!!

I miss smoking dope with renegade50

Khan/ wife got a box of wally world brand raisin bran.
But no box of extra raisins to throw in it.

Dammmmit......

Must be cold there.

Getting hammered at the bar then eating a $hit ton of Taco Bell

I’m still here for you little one! I’m still here.

Have tickets to a Roy Clark concert that is postponed indefinitely.

I miss smoking dope with renegade50 too.
Hope our dealers up on New Providence Blvd aint taking a hit money wise.
Relief checks coming in for em from their convience store job anyways.
I bought 2 Oz,s of purple hair 2 days ago.

Should get me thru till friday I hope...
Lol!!!!

Hookers, Escorts...

Miss my friends coming to the ranch to eat talk and shoot, maybe shoot a pig or two, Bob Kaywoodie , Miles Patton, Old man 03 Randy, Ed to many letters, whiskey with a cork, they cook, I eat and listen to the story's,talk of guns, hunting good food, reloading, fix guns, shoot up a bunch of ammo, I always learn something I didn't know or think of. we usually have a little gathering about this time every spring, before it gets hot down here. I'm really missing them this year! Old picture Rio7

Hey Hey Hey! I just love to play football.. Hey Hey Hey! I just love to see Herald getting a beating...

Waylon, Willy, and the boys.

Miss them guys.

Willy always has some good smoke.

Dont miss Bill Clinton..
Said he never inhaled.

LIAR!!!!

Don’t miss much except family. But that is only temporary. Like most everything else mentioned so far.

Damn Blue!!! We need to do that again at first opportunity!! I’ll bring big pkg of steaks!

Not a particularly outgoing person, certainly not gregarious, and am retired, so not too much. But cannot see my 93 y/o mother in a nrsg home 20 minutes away.

Only allowed if they are actively dying. She is, but not actively..

hey man, can I take a picture of you walkin your dogs?

It’s kinda my thing.

I’ll mount it in a frame and give it to you.

Blue!!! rattle bugs literally on the backporch!!! Remember?

Look at the bright side guys.... day drinking is back in style....

Rationality?

I'm from WI - day drinking isn't a style, it's an ethnicity.

Business as usual at our house. Working OT, minor projects around the house and going to bed tired.
Not much has changed for me and the wife except not having our granddaughter here a few days a week. My wife works in the medical field and doesn't want to risk passing it to her. She was doing well but finally broke down after a video call last night. I don't think she can hold out much longer.

I miss hanging out at the bar with my friends.

still doing what i normally do. what i miss most is being a kid and walking to the pond/creek barefooted with a cane pole to catch bream.

Kaywoodie, Bob don't worry about the steaks, I've got a ton of meat, bring the Dickel with a cork . Rio7

Same here.

Get drunk....eat dinner...go to bed.

Get up in morning....repeat.

So far nothing at all.

Those damn things are all over the place this year, got this on in front of the house. ,Rio7

Ah, a good snake.

I thought those things were protected in TX.

Plentiful,18 dollar per pound rifle powder.

👍👍👍.

Keep me posted! 😉

I miss my Big Breakfast at the local diner. Sure, I can cook at home. But, it’s a giant treat for me.

I miss Skeet and Trap shooting with some of my buddies and playing music with my band mates.

Wife and I going out to dinner with our adult daughter or a small group of friends. Good food, lots of laughs and a drink or two.

This, kinda...

It's more like missing coffee with all of the other bulls from the area and catching up on gossip and poking each other up til somebody's red faced and jumpy...

The 3 am nudge for some nooky......

Not a thing... Kinda like the whole slowdown actually.

Although the constant covid talk is starting to wear.

Nothing at this point, Wabi. Life is pretty much normal in this area so far. Being rural, we mostly go and come as we please or as needed.

Hoping it lasts that way for the duration of this.

I hadn't thought about it, but you are right. Great post.

Mine comes at 5 AM....

I can ask at any time.

You are young. Give it time...

Freedom

It dont mean she says yes! It just means I can ask whenever!

I'm already out on the ends of the earf. Nothing here has really changed much. Anything I'm missing out on is what I've been missing out on for the last 20+ years.

Nothing has changed for us, other than enhanced concern for our kids, grandkids, etc. If we didn’t watch the news or participate on the “Fire”.....we wouldn’t know there was a problem. memtb

Don't give a damn about seeing other people,going out to eat or any of that crap. I miss being able to get basic necessities as needed from town.

Kind of a lonely eerie feeling being out and about here. I don't like people but the shutdown is a little apocalyptic feeling.

Yep.

I miss eating a nice Breakfast at the local pub, but other than that....Not a lot has changed.

Still set on my front porch every day and watch the wildlife.

Sure glad I live out in the boonies, and get to enjoy this.

Virgil B.

I worked on an offshore trawler with a captain that said the only thing worse than cold coffee was woke up pu**y.

I miss spending the day alone. Now if I come back in the house there is a daytime drama on and/or a lady NP video conferencing with patients and their mothers.

Wageslave, and Otis, steelhead fishing and cock pictures !
