2. We're already doing basically what you're doing.

The last time we went to a restaurant was last month, for my grandson's birthday. I've been doing home cooking... basically casseroles and things like that for a while now here at the house. I wasn't sure our March check would be here, so we were hunkering down here, too. When I saw it was deposited, I breathed a sigh of relief and told my hubby, we're okay until April. We'll be living month to month like that, too. There will be thousands, if not millions, of us doing the same thing... and forgoing meals and drugs. We're selective about the drugs we pay for and how we pay for them (often insurance isn't the most cost effective), and we only eat one meal a day here now. It ain't fun.
