I replied to a prayer thread on FR today. The daughter of a Freeper's cousin tested positive for the virus. She's in school in Scotland. Last night when I looked to see how many in my New York State county (Oneida) had tested positive, the number was 2. It's still at 2. I'm not doing anything differently than what I did before. I've gone to my doctor's appointments, had my teeth cleaned last week, go grocery shopping once a week, go to the post office once a week, and went to the laundromat today. I was going to visit my oldest son in Troy, New York for the weekend, but we cancelled because none of the restaurants there are open for dining-in. It's one of the things we enjoy when I visit. We go for supper on Saturday night, then out for breakfast on Sunday...then I head home. That's all that's changed for me.

I am a little sick of getting emails from my utilities, and credit card companies, telling me that they're "there for me" if I need help through this crisis. I don't even read them any more, just delete them. It's a bit much. I think because I live in a small city in central NY State, what's going on in the big cities has no effect on our lives here. I for one am just going to continue to do what I normally do.

More phone calls after dinner from friends and relatives.

Since we are the senior citizens of both clans, it is easy to figure out, That besides talking,they want to know how we are doing. After they determine that we are okay. They actually often want to handle their boredom.

My wife and some of her female relatives are deep cleaning room by room.

Our church has expanded my wife’s to call list of members.

She is very good at that.

The internet is a Godsend. I will be getting my wife’ chrome book on the local library books on line and link her to my Prime acct. We use gmail and texting several times a day.

I text or email my clan/family daily and sometimes 2x. We are all conservatives and love jokes and memes that skewer the libs.
