Today is Wednesday, April 29, 2020.

We are (at average) at 42 days of social isolation. In the US alone, there are just under 1 million confirmed covid19 cases with 55,000+ deaths as of this morning.

Schools have been closed since March 17th and are teaching remotely on-line. Schools will not reopen for the 2019-2020 school year.

Only “essential” retail stores are open such as grocery stores, hardware stores, and pharmacies. Amazon delivery windows average 3 – 4 weeks when they used to be max. 2 days. No gyms are open, and it’s almost impossible to find weights, exercise equipment, bikes, sewing machines, hair-dye, etc.

All extracurricular/ volunteer/business meetings and other gatherings are now on virtual meeting platforms. Hang in there, life will continue, and eventually, all together, we will get to a new normal!

There are lines/tape inside the stores on the floors to keep people 6 feet apart. Bars and restaurants are open only for takeout, home delivery & drive through. Playgrounds and sports fields are closed. Most beaches, parks, and cemeteries are closed to the public. No visitors are allowed in hospitals.

All major and minor league sports competitions have been canceled as well as kids’ sports. The NFL draft was done virtually this week. It was special. American Idol was done virtually this week. All festivals and entertainment events have been banned. Weddings, family celebrations, and graduations have been canceled.

About Me

I started this site so my mom could get news about her grandkids without me having to walk her through the process of trying to open and email attachment several times a week.  Since then she has passed away and I’ve fallen off the blog wagon, but I’m inspired to pick it up again now.
