Those of you who hate Trump kindly ripup or send back your stimulus checks...hate to see you compromise your principles...

Why?  It didn't come from tRUMP.  He just had the audacity to insist his name be put on the checks.  I have worked and paid taxes for the past 40+ years.  As a tax paying citizen, I feel I am entitled to my check even though I will probably be paying more than that back in taxes next year.  I'm so glad mine was direct deposited so I didn't have to see his name or to write "suc**s by his name.

I just found out that a wonderful little lady that I know has passed away from the virus.  My niece-in-law's grandma,  Mamaw Jones, has succumbed to the disease.  She was such a wonderful, loving, giving person.  (She didn't live close to me.)  She's in the arms of Jesus now.

I still think my husband and daughter had the virus at the end of December.  Both were extremely sick with the same symptoms they are giving for the virus.  My daughter went to the doctor and was told she had a serious respiratory virus.  It took both of them 3 - 4 weeks to get over the worst of it.  Neither had ever been as sick as they were.  My husband is still having breathing problems.  But, I don't know how they could have caught it.  No one else in the family caught it.  They both plan to be tested to see if by chance they did have it.

It's best to take all advise from professionals in the areas of expertise ~ health officials, scientists...

I got the Amazon credit card when I placed a real big order.  I still use it to get 5% back on my Amazon purchases.  I pay it off as soon as the charges hit the account so no interest is incurred.

I seem to be collecting them.  I have two really good phones that I got stuck with when I switched from AT&T to Verizon.  AT&T had royally ripped me off on a phone (was supposed to be free but ended up costing me $860).  After I switched carriers, I found out the "free" phone would only work with AT&T.

My flight to Hawaii has been cancelled by the airlines.  Will wait a bit to see how all this pans out before rebooking.

The lockdowns may end May 15 but social distancing won't end then.  Until there is an antibody or vaccine, there will still be the threat of another outbreak.

I've never seen the commercial.  I very seldom see commercials because I am either streaming shows or watching DVD's.

It's going to be around for quite a while until antibodies or vaccines are developed.

I go for luke-warm.  74° - 76° year round would be suitable for me.
