I've been hunkering down in the distant, semi-rural DC exurbs for the past 3 weeks. I've been out to grocery and liquor shop about once a week since. Been working out in the basement and taking hikes in the woods. Our little rural corner of relative quiet was dealt a huge blow when a nearby nursing home blew up nearly overnight with 77 cases and 10 deaths (and counting). FWIW, my wife had volunteered there for years but stopped a couple of years back when her parents started to need more help themselves.

Hell of a hoax, isn't it?

Time passes more slowly now. It's been 10 days since I started this topic, but feels like a month. Have to go out to a doctor today; got a knee that is demanding a cortisone shot. All well here basically.

Been dealing with back pain since the 1st myself. Wishing to avoid going in and being around them.
Hope you get to feeling better quickly and stay safe.

Think I'll buy a bottle of Pappy's to celebrate 'Deadbeat' Donnie's downfall with mine. It's either that or send it on to Turtle McConnell's challenger in Kentucky.

We won’t be getting any, but I highly recommend using it to buy stamps, to help keep the USPS afloat. F’ing Repubes have wanted to kill it off for years and hand it over to the private sector (their donors), not to mention killing vote-by-mail, which would help to run them out of office.

Glad to see people here are managing.
My family is fortunate. We all have jobs where we can work from home (one in Colorado, the other here in Overland Park). My wife, an RN, has been out of direct patient care for a couple of years now, and can operate her call center job from home. I have always worked from home a bit. Business is taking a minor hit with hearings cancelled, but we are looking at remote hearings in the next few months. My office-mates have been having Zoom happy hours on Fridays. That saves me some money, because I usually provided the whiskey for the in-person version.
There has also been time for lots of walks with my wife, plenty of reading and music, with a little bit of BBC on Amazon thrown in. My home church has been absorbed into a mega-church, which has the resources to hold video services. Those provide some inspiration - and motivation to help out in these times.
Y'all take care and be safe.
Regards,
D-Ray
