Hey guys, welcome to the episode 227 of Hibbily Horror Stories. I'm Jerry. I'm Tracy.

Yes, Jerry. I love you. I love you. As you're taking a drink, right? This was starting. Sorry. I love you. I love you, Jerry.

Paul Lee. Anyway, we don't start off. Obviously by thinking of all of our military and civil servants all over the world, no matter which country you represent. Thank you guys, gals, dogs and the families of all those.

Obviously, it includes all of the people on the front lines of the hospital since their flight in COVID. It's hard to believe that they're still dealing with this crap.

Hang in there. Hopefully we'll have a vaccine here soon.

We don't know how y'all do it day in and day out. And oh god, gives you strength. But we're still praying for you guys.

Thank you so much for taking care of all of us. We appreciate you.

Tracy, there's been a lot in this country going around as far as one and a great Britain and stuff too with a lot of shutdowns and states as far as restaurants and stuff like that.

Would that be and said you then people who work in the restaurants get hit hard and they're getting laid off this time of the year right before the holidays and everything.

I know what kind of really sucks, but I know it's going to take its toll on people. I'm already starting to see it on Facebook. People say hey, I don't even know how we're going to make ends meet now with.

I know here in Kentucky. I can't speak for every state, but in here in Kentucky, we've got restaurants shut down to at least. I think the 13th of December.

And then they'll see what they're going to do and then some other businesses and stuff have been hard. So it's tough out there.

People situations where you could push some people over the edge. If you're already struggling and something like it happens and you know, like I said, we see it in the group every single day that somebody is like, you know, hey, it's just it's been extra tough with all this and it's kind of pushing pushing me to the side.

I don't want to be on luckily we've got people that are willing to jump in and help and talk them off of these legislations so to speak.

I just want to let you know that during these hard times, you do have people. Please talk to someone. Don't take it upon yourself to just assume that nobody wants to listen to you during these times where stuff is tough on everybody.

That doesn't mean people don't want to hear your problems. It just means that they understand it even more.

Correct. And if you need to call the hotline is 800 273 8255 or 741 741 if you want to text, you know, if you guys need reach out to us for anything. I mean, if you're having struggles with Christmas presents, things of any kind like that, please let us know because we will definitely try to help you guys out.

As far as the restaurants go and everything, you know, just it's a hard time for everybody, not, you know, just the restaurants, but you know, try to get take out or something to keep them going or, you know, like somebody said the other day when the people bring out their food to your car, give them a tip.

They're still doing their job and they could really use that. So, you know, just little things that we can help our community.

You know, it will help out more than you know, again, if anybody has any problems or with anything, please feel free to call Jerry and I and reach out to the group because we're always here for you.

I also want to add what we're on a set. A lot of people are going to be trying to do their holiday shopping and stuff like that.
