Thinking about when everything re opens.. I think it will be crazy busy

I mean barbers, salons etc people trying to get appointments.
Then when clothes and shoe type shops open everyone will be desperate for either the latest seasons stuff, the genuine need of items and simply people wanting to treat themselves.
This fills me with a fear/dread. As it prob does most.
I'm mega organised. Always buy the kids clothes start of the seasons. So they're done. Book hair apts in advance. Etc
I personally won't be able to deal with the mayhem anyone else like this?

Toddler dd had a massive growth spurt and a growing fast 2m old. I've just done an online order for clothes for dd because apart from some leggings literally nothing else fitted. She's so tall she's in age 3 to 4 tops and just turned 2. But it wasn't the same as going shopping and I know when this is over she'll need more and decent stuff that's not been trashed in garden and potty training but I'd have to brace myself big time to mentally deal with it..

It will.

Hairdressers, GPs, dentists, barbers, nail bars, tanning shops, banks, phone shops, clothes shops, pubs, restaurants, soft play, McDonald’s, beaches...-it will be carnage.

I think people will be hesitant to go out and get on with things, I personally can’t see me rushing to be anywhere that I’m too close to strangers.

I think a lot of small businesses won’t be in a position to reopen. They won’t exist.

My 7 year old has tooth ache and the dentist won't see her. We will be in that queue. The rest I'm not all that bothered about.
