Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

True but I’m worried it’s too late to start them. Takes like 8 weeks to be ready to plant doesn’t it? Maybe I could transplant them earlier or something. Our growing season does seem to be extended lately so maybe it’s not too late haha

I just worry it is for the peppers, tomatoes, and eggplant.

I’ve been meaning to plant them for a while but I keep forgetting

You are only a week or 2 late. Get them planted TODAY. You still have time!

Same!! Idk why but I’ve been so unmotivated, even worse than usual. BUT. Today is different and I feel so motivated and happy for the first time in a while so I’ve been taking advantage of it and trying to get a lot done and be outside haha idk why but I naturally have a green thumb even without trying

I'm not usually much of a procrastinator but since all this Covid stuff I'm feeling the opposite. I don't usually leave home on a daily basis, but now since I can't it's all I want to do!

The gun safety course is great for learning the gun. However it's a Godsend to get you handling your gun, playing scenarios in your mind. Anything that gets you using a gun in your hands. You need to be comfortable holding and shooting the gun without freezing up. Unfortunately you can't practice killing someone .

I actually found a school around here that gets you using real guns in the course.

Don’t think I could ever kill someone though.

That's what video games are for

then I’m an expert!! Used to play GTA all the time lol loved running from the cops

I've asked myself over the years if I could ever do that. I can't. I would choose -- actually choose -- being the one who's killed rather than living with the thought that I had done it.

It took me a long time but I managed to work myself up to culling a mean rooster. That's my limit. It just is.

Yeah, I don’t think I could kill someone. Still can’t even kill an animal.

Most people when defending love ones can take that step.... maybe not to defend themselves

I’m not sure I could do it even then.

Maybe if they were going after my animals.

why?

Probably doesn’t want me ruining my hair lol

I missed the boat on peas. And I'm sad I didn't put in onions, garlic and shallots in the Fall. But I went ahead and planted seedlings and seeds of lettuce a couple weeks ago. I put them in a raised bed that's a little more protected from direct sun. They're doing great so I feel like I'll get several salads from them before they bolt.

Wait onions are supposed to be planted in the fall!? Dang!!!

Too late??? I might think maybe for tomatoes, you may need plants. I think you might make it with eggplant.

Thanks! That’s good news!! I think I’ll try the tomatoes anyway and see and if it’s too late then oh well haha but I’d like to try cause I have a few varieties I wanna try.

I recommend artic fox. They are great. No nasty chemicals and the stuff smells like grapes!

In other news, 3,300 something cases today.

Thanks! May have to try that one. Though I don’t think I want to dye my hair but idk haha

Thanks!! Will do!! That’s good news I’m not too late but still a week or two longer I’ll have to wait for vegetables but oh well.

I think I’m gonna get the garden ready too since it’s so nice out.

Yeah I’m the same way!! Haha well, I’ve always been a procrastinator. but been even worse since this thing started for some reason. But I think I’m finally getting my mojo back a bit haha

I want some more Emergen-C but most places are sold out I think

Try Ollie's.

don’t worry, I won’t! But if I did, I’d get the good stuff like Manic Panic or something and not cheap grocery store stuff haha but I honestly don’t really want to dye my hair anyway I like it brown and gray... skunk streaks are in fashion, right!?

There is no such thing as good stuff that is sold at the grocery store.
If you want your hair colored get it done by professional.
