Rich Cline Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 A Word of Encouragement Things are changing by the hour. It's only been 1 day since major community announcements. We still have have 6 - 8 weeks ahead. Take a deep breath and relax. Stay safe, and follow reasonable precautions. Things are improving each day and will continue to improve. We will get through this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going to take a walk around the neighborhood today to get some fresh air. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught it’s because of coronavirus needs Jewel-Osco, a big grocery chain around here, is looking to hire 5000 workers. 5000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People scattered themselves all over the lawn of the people who hosted the impromptu get together, as well as hanging on the street. Tomorrow we meet at 9:00 for our daily walk, probably 10 of us or so. We don't bunch up as we walk through the neighborhood; we really stretch ourselves out. Will walk about 2 or 2.5 miles. Do the correct Drum Corps thing and maintain the proper intervals - whatever you choose it to be. Arm & an inch probably too close, however 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyDad Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 I see grocery stores are setting up “old people only” hours. Also, college kids doing grocery runs for the elderly. I love living in the land of freedom where we can unleash our ingenuity. My prediction- if an effective vaccine or other treatment is developed and deployed for the masses, it will be developed in America. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choice of 6-7am or 7-8am depending on store. I was thinking seniors get to stuff before certain items are gone. Sis reminded me the stores should also be cleanest in morning from overnight disinfecting. (Between the lines was “get your ### out of bed and hit the clean store old guy 😈) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
