Two members of my family are Doctors and have given me the best advice they have. Basically, stay home. They work almost every day at a hospital with a large number of Covid patients. Both are upset, not just for me but for all the people they treat. I'm upset for them and all the other healthcare workers.

SOOOOO, I stay home, bored to tears. Shop at my little local convenient store, don't dare to go to the big chain stores. I pay twice as much but I guess that my needs are simple enough for that.

Like many other Seniors, I live on SS. House taxes due November 1st. That scares me just as much.

I am frightened about November 3rd. My town has gone tRump crazy. I never would have believed that either of these situations would happen.

Hard not to lose hope.
Keep safe everyone. Over 65? Stay home if you can, please.
