Covid Unemployment Benefits

Did I lose my job during this? No. 
Have I whined about other people’s income? Also, no. 

I’m kind over seeing this entitled meme or ones similar to it. Not everyone who benefited from the extra unemployment benefit was making minimum wage. A LOT of minimum wage jobs were nearly unaffected by Covid. 🙄

I personally know plenty of people who made more than $900/week that were furloughed and this extra unemployment benefit was helpful but they still had to adjust their budget. 


The normal max unemployment benefits doesn’t do shit for a lot of the furloughed workers. But all some want to focus on are those who made made less than $15/hour. Sadly some of y’all bitching about others pockets are “Christians” or generally “good people.” 

Everything going on in the world and all you’re mad about you’re jobless neighbor getting some help while their hoping for the job they busted their ass for and helped them once attain “the American dream” comes to back for them. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Buying groceries online

I’ve used Lowe’s Foods personal grocery service, Walmart Grocery, and Instacart for groceries for pickup and delivery from Tramway Food Lion. 

If you want a regular receipt to scan for cashback apps then the Lowe’s Foods service is the one to use. 

If you prefer Walmart for whatever reason then Walmart Grocery isn’t bad. 

If you like to pick your groceries and want say during the shopping progress then Instacart is your best pick. Thanks to the app you can see every time a replacement is made and chat with your shopper. They can send you pics of your choices if the store doesn’t have what you selected or the preferred replacement. Shopping through Instacart has been less stressful than sending a man to pick up tampons. 

Btw. If you have family or friends that need groceries, put their address in Instacart. More than likely you can have groceries delivered to them. 

My order from the Tramway Food Lion was just delivered. My shopper, Summer, was super fast at shopping and was here quick too. I swear she shopped faster than I do and everything is perfect! And to my surprise I have a regular receipt so I can scan it to my cashback apps! 🙌🏼

Please stay home for your kids


A lot of y’all aren’t taking this serious but let me break it down from the perspective of someone who was hospitalized for pneumonia a few times as a child. 

Being sick was painful and scary. I still remember how heavy and painful my chest felt. I mean painful! And breaking hurt so much. My asthma made this worse especially when I got upset about the pain. I couldn’t help to get upset. It hurt so much. My hands felt itchy from the tape holding the IV in and I was constantly told if I didn’t stop messing with it they were going to restrain me. 

Thank God my family could come to cheer me up. I wanted my grandparents with me at all times the entire time. 

Your kid if they get this and become hospitalized are going to feel pain you can’t help them with. 

Your child will be scared. The younger they are the more scary this will be. 

Only one person will be able to be with your child during this time.






Are you prepared to pick whether it’s mom or dad that sits alone with your sick, hospitalized child? Are you prepared to tell your crying child that nana or papa or bubba or sissy can’t be there? Are you prepared to tell them the other parent can’t see them because you are already there? 

Btw. Kids do get this and there have been children to die. 

This is not the time to take risks. 

This is not the time that you want to find out your loved one had a silent health condition that unfortunately made them more susceptible. 

#stayhome
