(18,296 posts)..adequately protected so hes giving me the chance to stay home and he can purchase any needed items from work. None of my family have lost their jobs, but my grand dtr will miss her HS graduation ceremonies
I will stay inside and only venture out if absolutely necessary and I will be gloved and masked up. I will do this until there is a REAL vaccine..not trump*s snake oil. Also I'm getting a flu shot for the first time!
So no more dining out for us, no more wine bars, theaters, art galleries or public gatherings of ANY kind including mass transportation.
Years ago we talked about this scenario and already had a plan..
I'm mega cleaning and de-mousing the attached garage and making room for necessities and not all the junque I thought I would 'use someday'. I've taken a lot of my Grandmothers beautiful 'antiques' to Goodwill. I have a feeling this is gonna get a lot worse before it gets better.
I'm blessed that I can do this. I have lots of land and lots of resources to rely on...but my heart breaks for those stuck inside a small apt with small kids and pets...and maybe a business that's suffering.
I don't know how I can help them.. and there's somewhat of a survivors guilt. SO if a biz has to open I guess thats what they have to do.....who am I to judge their situation. I hope they survive... on all fronts.
