Some stupid virus called Covid-19 has been killing people and making a lot of people sick. It's all around the world, and pretty much all the news talks about (when they aren't bashing Pres. Trump, that is). This has been going on for a few months now.
Most businesses have had to close down, by gov't order. Groceries are open, as is Target and Walmart, and you are required by law to wear masks when you go there. I have made several nice ones. Katherine has several, one with cherries, one with choc-covered strawberries and a few others. The food ones are appropriate because she is a manager at Stop and Shop.
She has told me crazy stories. Most people are pretty decent about all this (besides the masks, you have to stand 6 feet apart) but there have been a few jerks. She does NOT let them treat her badly, and I am glad. The news is always saying "We're all in this together" but there are people who definitely need to be reminded they aren't so special.
I pretty much stay home with my crafts, but Mike has gone over to the beach to walk on the boardwalk a few times, sometimes with his friend Jimmy, and he even bought an elliptical that he uses every other day. Also lifts weights. We have a little home gym, which is good because my husband is a self-proclaimed "Gym Rat" and if he didn't have a means of exercising, I think he'd go nuts.
Sometimes we head off to the grocery or CVS. I hate wearing the masks and hope we don't have to when it gets very warm.
I feel sorry for anyone who has lost family in this, but like a lot of people, I want to be done with it.
If you are reading this in the future, look up "Covid-19" and "Pandemic 2020." It's quite a story. Probably (no, likely) started in a lab China but the PC crowd won't let you say "Chinese Virus."
Enough of this crap. My next post is full of GOOD NEWS.
