Shelter in Place - Day #7


Styxhexenhammer666 says the chloroquine drug seems to be helping but we have to make sure that people take full dose so drug resistance doesn't recur.

Getting sun today, gardening, cleaning car.  Yesterday did a on line clogging lesson with Katie....cool.  Worked out well.  Called my 91 year old cousin in NYC.  She's hanging on in her apartment.  

So far all's well.

Today we took a nice walk, vacuumed the car and sat in the sun.  We watched the President Trump's update.  It was very reassuring.  I think that we're going to be fine.
Last night we went to the store around 8pm, about an hours before closing.  It was interesting which items were completely gone: peanut butter, bread, eggs, vegetables, toilet paper, meat except for chicken.  It was weird.  No line though at the self check.  
This evening we had some delicious corned beef hash from leftover St. Pat's meal :)
