If this adds to the US becoming less dependent on China that is a good thing.
It will help us weather the real storm....when their economy begins to collapse.
I am sure there are plenty [ups at the locl shelter who would love a good home.

Whoever develops and markets a Coronovirus Nosepicker could cash in.
I'm type 2 but thanks to diet, exercise and medication, I have had a consistent morning A1C for years of 90 to 100. It can be done and at this moment, I feel healthier than I have in several years, pumped even. I feel like I can make it to seventy for the first time ever. I mean the first time I have had that kind of confidence.
First tell me what it is.
Going all bandito, "We don't need no stinking badges!"
I’ve been thinking a lot about this too—no more stupid talk about climate change and transgender and trivial stuff and nonsense. Now we are focusing on homeschooling, being with family, being healthy, trying to show our employers how very productive we can be with 100% telework, and preparing home cooked meals.
I have friends who live in remote areas of the US who don’t watch the news and didn’t even know of it. This is their life all the time: homeschooling, no restaurants, no travel, no sports—and gardening and raising hens for eggs. They are unaffected by it (I guess until they know someone who may get sick or die from the virus).
I think we all process this differently and cope differently. I cope by reading everything about it and watching the press conferences; my daughter hates hearing about it and my son “doesn’t care.” (He says that about everything as he’s 17.)
Of course China lovers like Bitch McConnell pocket the payoffs and look the other way.
Unfortunately we live in a rental that doesn’t allow pets, but I am seriously considering moving because I just can’t live without a dog. I am still terribly sad about our 2 dogs that both passed about 4 years ago.
For some reason, the shelter dogs here are almost all pit bull or pit bull mix. I do not trust them and think they are unpredictable. I will keep looking, though.
Dogs are the best thing on earth.
It’s Johns Hopkins COVID-19 Tracking Dashboard. Lots of good information, and you can look at all infected areas near you, such as the number infected, the number of deaths and the number of recoveries.
It paints a picture of how not spreading it will defeat it quickly.
I had already heard about the Triage Tents in the parking lot outside the ER.
Bumping your positive thoughts. Thank you.

That is right.
