Please, Mr. Postman

You guys can’t imagine how many things I’ve ordered since March to be shipped to me that haven’t arrived. I think at last count, I had 11 shipments due. The delay is not the fault of the post office but the impact of COVID-19 on businesses.

Many things I wanted to order I couldn’t due to shortages and their being prioritized for the frontlines of organizations dealing with the pandemic. One of those was hand sanitizer. Hand sanitizer is not as good as soap and water for cleaning hands, but for seven years, it has been part of my animal rescue life. There is always hand sanitizer near me wherever I am for when handwashing is not an option. So not being able to buy hand sanitizer was a stressor for me.

One day an online ad directed me to this company Peter Thomas Roth who had responded specifically for consumers who couldn’t get hand sanitizer. They were producing it and also directing a portion of their products to frontliners. It’s a little more expensive, but not so much that I wouldn’t pay for my peace of mind. Despite my lack of luck so far receiving orders, I decided to make the effort.

TODAY IT CAME! After weeks of being excited about packages only to find out they were all for Debby or Tim, I got a product I ordered! It was like freaking Christmas around here when I opened the box.

I can go the grocery store and pharmacy with just a little less stress now, because this will be in my car.
