I work maintenance and projects in a refinery so still showing up every day. Everyone who can work from home is staying home so the place is a ghost town. At least the drive to and from work is easy with no traffic. Other than that fishing at the neighborhood lake and drinking a lot of beer. Took the boat out this past Saturday but didn't attend the party at the Prop Stop.
My kidney specialist said the same thing. But my company and my job supports Biotech and some of our customers are trying to develop treatment and vaccine for the virus. And we have to support them with their research supplies. My job is to support projects and help fill in when support is needed.
My yellow squash is doing fantastic. My serrano and jalapeno peppers are as well. My tomatoes looks like death.
Dude, everyone can't stay home. Some people really are essential. I also just noticed that our Gov has deemed golf courses as "essential" and we have nice weather next week so I will be playing
Life in the time of coronavirus. I am driving to work doing my “essential” job, so things are still somewhat the same. A lot of people are working from home and I did for a 2 week quarantine. I would rather go to work these days. My wife travels for work so she is grounded and at home. She is a doer and is going stir crazy. She is sorting and filing everything. My 15 year old daughter has been homeschooling for 3 weeks. She is hitting a wall. Each day I come home I see a little more craziness in the house. One or both could be crying. LOL. It could be worse. It probably will get worse. I have a friend who lives in Manhattan. His family are on complete lock down now. Not a single store open. They are confined to their million dollar shoe box brownstone. It gets smaller each day. Everything is curbside pickup. Their only respite is walking the dog. We had a happy hour on Zoom last night with a group of friends and family. They are all working from home and feeling a bit stir crazy. We were zooming for almost 4 hours. Half of a bottle of bourbon each for the guys and a bottle of wine for the gals. It was probably the best time spent in a while so that says something about life these days. I am thankful that liquor stores are deemed “essential”. In the DFW we can go to grocery stores, Lowes, liquor stores, and pick up at restaurants. Otherwise we are on lock-down until at least April 30. It may get worse in that time, but I don’t think it will get better.
