Well…I have been thinking about doing a daily diary on the “social distancing” that we all have been asked to do by limiting our trips outside the house to essentials to try to slow the spread of the coronavirus…and with the shut down of basically everything but grocery stores and pharmacies here in Michigan, that request seems to be a little more than that…which I am okay with. After all, I am in the cohort that is at the most risk from getting infected since I am over 60…but I don’t have any underlying health problems so I guess that’s something…I do have something funny to relate as this whole thing starts…texting with one of my younger friends last week, she asked the question “how am I going to deal with having to be isolated for weeks?” If I could have laughed through the phone, I would have…and my reply was “that is my normal life”…I very seldom see anyone or go out to dinner or to have drinks anymore…or to movies or concerts…that stuff just has lost it’s appeal to me…I know I have thought about re-engaging some, but I guess it was a pretty good idea that I put it off to save money and and get more work done around here…so, after spending about 90 bucks at the grocery store today…I have enough here to hunker down for at least a month if necessary…I’ll run out of cocktails before then but I do have enough for the next couple of weeks and we should know something about how bad it’s going to be by then…I even got toilet paper this morning! I am going to still ride the bike every day even with my allergies trashing me…until they do a complete lockdown and tell everyone to stay in their homes…
