I didn't want to go to the grocery store so I got on Amazon and ordered my groceries from Whole Foods and sat and binged Call the Midwife on Netflix while I waited. No regrets.
@rjgmcmanus TW I was pregnant about 18 months ago and had a loss but during that pregnancy end TW I was being lazy and trying to find a delivery grocery service. Unfortunately, we live too far from any, but I discovered Walmart grocery pick up. I haven’t actually grocery shopped since.
@holly321 First of all, I'm so sorry for your loss. That's heartbreaking.
Second, I didn't know Wal-Mart did that! We live just a mile from one. I think I need to investigate that as an option too for when I have more energy.
Also, if ever you live near a Whole Foods, do it. This delivery thing is a game-changer.
@rjgmcmanus I had my groceries delivered from Target.
Then I binge watched Riverdale season 2 on Netflix, and warmed up pre made chicken enchiladas in the oven. I also slept quite a bit and I had to keep trying to find where I left off on Riverdale.
@holly321 I love Walmart pickup! It’s good for a running grocery list through the week and then I’ll place the order to pickup over the weekend. Saves me so much time!
@rjgmcmanus one of my favorite things about the Walmart grocery pick up is how they substitute items. If they’re out of something they’ll give you the bigger size, a comparable substitute, or the name brand!
@k_mama91 is Kroger ClickList grocery pick up or do you have to go in the store? We have Kroger here but I do Walmart so often because of convenience. Fuel points would be nice!
If you don't have delivery options nearby, it's a blessing as well as a curse. There are so many delivery services in my city, you can get almost any restaurant delivered at any time of day. I'm legitimately ashamed to admit how often I order meals in these days. But it is so glorious!
Legitimately just Febreezed my dog and her crate. She got caught in the rain earlier and I couldn't handle the wet dog smell at all. She wasn't happy, especially about the crate - she walked in, sneezed, and walked right back out looking disgusted.

@veganelise It is! It's weirdly cathartic for me. I guess the way I see it, if those women can be pregnant/giving birth in such awful conditions without most of the technology or knowledge we have today and still bring healthy babies into the world, baby and I will be okay. 🙂

@rjgmcmanus, thanks. We live nowhere near any stores. Our town has a dollar general, that’s it. So, sadly, I don’t see actually delivery in my future.
ETA: we live way too far out or I’d do the delivery option. We can’t even get pizza out here 😭
@holly321 we’re about 20 miles from town, even grabbing takeout sucks bc by the time you get it home it’s soggy 😣
