Social Distancing 2020

Haha. Just use your own judgment there. Hope these huge families all work and live in one space so as not to infect others by this! Whatever is going on, it's not working to keep NYC's case load down so far. Wonder how many critical medical resources they are using up?

That certainly is the truth. My hands are red and chapped from all the washing and cleaning.

How many cases are in your area?

We just got a second case. I don’t expect our health department to release names. I do wish they would say what town they’re from. Since this all started, I’ve not left town.

Just heard on the news that one can be incubating and spreading the virus for up to a month before symptoms appear. This is gonna be too late and is why you need to protect yourself now by staying in, wearing a mask and distancing yourself. You can only control your behavior you can’t control others’ behavior but if somebody gets too close to me they may get punched or pepper sprayed.

Also many are asymptomatic (showing no symptoms) and able to spread the virus. Knowing who has it is of no help. We have to suspect that everyone has it and protect ourselves accordingly.

Chris Cuomo of CNN has tested positive. He’s doing his show, Cuomo Prime Time, from his basement where he is quarantined. He’s telling us day by day what it’s like to have CV. Very scary. He says “This is not the flu, you do not want to get this”.

Not at my age I don’t want it. And seeing people in their 30’s dying from it is scary

I’m 64 and my MIL is 83. I have to be careful not to get it and pass it onto her. Infants, young children, teens and up, all age groups have died from this virus.

I’ll be 64 on the 11th of April .
Looks like, a lot of us on here are in an age group that really needs to be careful

Hi everyone! It's been well over a year since I last logged on. I can't believe I've been away so long - I've really missed reading everyone's posts. I've been busy with my first born. He just turned 1 year old last month. And my life has been turned upside down, in a good but tiring way. *both my Yorkies have been doing really good too! But they miss the long walks I used to take them (husband takes them now, and it's usually short, for potty purposes only).

My husband has been working from home and I've basically been home for the past 3 weeks and haven't gone out. Getting a little stir crazy, but obviously it's necessary, if we ever want this pandemic to be over. At this point, we're assuming everyone has the virus, including ourselves.

Just wanted to share...
If you haven't seen this video yet about safe groceries shopping tips, it's got some good info. We started to disinfect everything that comes from outside into our home.

And also, for those who wear gloves as protection, just be aware that sometimes gloves aren't always the best idea. I thought the Glitter analogy is a really good way to think about it.

It's surreal and tragic how this is actually happening all around the world. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. Especially if you're 60+. I'm keeping positive thoughts for you!!

While stuck at home, and with my baby being a bit older, I've been back at working on my pet portrait painting commissions. Here's one of my recent work in progresses

Canana, glad you are back on YT and love your art work. Also, thanks for posting the video and article. It was worth the time to watch/read to see how to do things better.

Canana..... so wonderful you popped in, congrats on your baby boy, we never knew if you had a boy or girl. You have been greatly missed, hugs to you. I have not read the link, got soooooo excited when I saw your name lol, but will check it out, thank you for posting it.
I know you are busy as babies are a lot of work and need a lot of attention, it would be great to hear from you again. Wonderful your furbabies have adapted to a human new baby brother.

Your art work is awesome, big, big hugs to you.

I found the alternative to paper toilet paper, yay!


Bio Bidet!

I actually found this at a thrift store two or three years ago and it seemed like a good time to install it today. So I did. Let me just say highly recommended. Ugly but gets the job done, and saves trees! Who knew?

I remember the first time I ever saw a bidet. Didn't have a clue what it was and had to ask my mom. You will have to let us know what you think as time goes on.
