Crazy talk about opening things back up. Too many people still getting sick and dying. I’ll stay home regardless. How are things going in the rest of the world?

So far our governors are exhibiting common sense as mortality numbers remain high. There is an on line article of reopened Jacksonville, Fla. beaches - people exhibit little common sense. I read that on that naval carrier with more than 600 positive cases - 60 % were asymptomatic yet still shedding virus. We (the Princess and I) are being sensible. Limiting shopping to groceries properly masked and gloved. Practicing social distancing on our daily walk. Remaining active around the yard. It will be interesting to see what happens in areas that will soon open up. Some have not had to face the reality that we in the NorthEast are facing.

I totally agree that our Governor's were blessed with "brains." I hear there's been a lot of bad information floating around the internet so these yahoos that don't see people dropping dead all around them think it's all a hoax. I think this will be with us for a very long time. I'm glad you have the Amish market to buy your meat from. I'm concerned about the meat processing plants that had to close due to the virus. At least I can raise my own chickens once my new incubator arrives. Then I'll have to go for the premium beef and pork from the local farmers.
By the way: it's still snowing. Ugh!

Thanks for the coffee @penny1960. It’s still 37F here with rain and snow mix. Tomorrow it’s supposed to warm up to 60F. I’m not holding my breath for that.

I finally got the HC delivered from Home Depot. Now all I need is the stuff I ordered from Lowe’s and some nice weather to get building.

Two boyfriends - why not?? Always good to have a spare in case one carps out. They don't make them like the used too. Trust me on that.
