No, just continue taking walks around our development if the weather permits. Several grocery stores in our area have set aside special hours for seniors and those with comprised autoimmune systems to grocery shop if we need to so that is the only time I plan to venture away from home; will try and be as safe as I can be with social distancing. Everyone take care and be safe.

I have opened the window since it's sunny and is supposed to reach up to 70 today! In fact, the warm weather and sun is supposed to help fight off viruses so I'm going to take advantage of it! I can go outside while maintaining social distancing!

Here in Ga. the weather is warming up, Friday it will reach in the high 80's. But I am not going anywhere, I guess.

Little walks around the block or a quick stop to the supermarket will probably be all that we will do outside the house.

The temp was nice outside today (upper 70s) so due to that I had to take advantage while I can because the pre-spring storms have already begun.  Yard work is much easier if you can catch the early undesirable growth sooner rather than later.  I'm not practicing social distancing with my weeds and dandelions.  LOL  :angry7:

We will be staying in this weekend. It is for the best right now. I have bad asthma so I definitely do not want to risk anything.

Seeing as asymptomatic people can spread Covid-19 without even being sick or knowing they're carriers, aside from the occasional grocery or pharmacy run, I'm staying home for the foreseeable future. I had cold and flu symptoms earlier this week but am feeling pretty good now. Even so, I would hate to chance infecting anyone in whom the virus would be lethal. We have to watch out for one another in this pandemic.

What I find interesting about this virus is that even though children and young people can get infected, they are doing better than adults in fighting it off--unlike with other corona viruses.

Also interesting is the fact that although the nCorona virus can be lethal (via pneumonia and cytokine storm) just like the other corona viruses, unlike most other viruses, people can be carriers without any symptoms at all. This one is sneaky and lethal because ordinarily you can see people coughing and sneezing and avoid them. Covid-19 is one where you can't see the people you need to avoid. Droplets from speaking, face-touching, etc., are still being spread by the asymptomatic, only we're not noticing that we have to avoid those people. At least, that's how I look at it.

Anyway, I hope everyone stays safe and keeps 6-feet (or 6-degrees) of separation from one another. Good luck and God bless you all!!

Good luck on the toilet paper thing -  I didn't get some when I could so now I am lol rationing what I have.  It isn't cold here but I'm staying inside.

The stores where I live finally restocked TP and they're controlling how much everyone buys, thank goodness. So I'm flush with TP now LOL. :)

I have for this last week only getting out of the house when I don't have a choice.  Going for groceries or prescriptions for my husband.  Otherwise we are staying pretty much inside.  I have been lately doing a lot of my grocery shopping online and having it delivered, or I pick it up curbside.  I got toilet paper when it was out everywhere on line at Costco because it came from a distribution center and was shipped UPS.

I went to Walmart thursday night and it closed at 8pm. So.. I went to Food Lion and grabbed a few things. Kind of scared to go out now. So I won't be leaving the house.
