    Caffeine going in. Woke up about 10-11 times last night. First thing that came to mind was this virus thing.:picard:I hope and pray they come up with a form of treatment (drug) that can be used by the masses quick. To get us through until they have a vaccine. I thought I saw something about the French experimenting with a combination of two drugs for treatment. Now I’ll have to find it again.

    Yesterday was a beautiful day for working outside, but not so much for just hanging around out there.

    I got the rest of the ash split and stacked. 2/3 of a cord total from Dracut Midwinter

    Burnt a bunch of splitter trash, and got a little jumpstart on splitting the oak. I might try and get a few hours of work in this morning before the storm rolls in....unless my actual job gets in the way.

    Respectable! Some more ash is sure to come your way this summer.
    No expense account lunches these days I guess...
    One way to go on a diet.

    Nope! I don't see any reason to go anywhere for a while. All of my customers arent out selling, so theres no reason for me to be out. I wont be in any type of store for a while.

    I may restock on perishables, but I'll use Walmart so I can use the drive up car delivery.

    From what I hear you’d better order now if you want it in May.

    It's some malaria drug and zithromyacin (spelling) or z pack as most call it. Cuts the symptoms down almost totally after like 4 days. Our government officials are saying no effect and down playing it but there is data put out by, I believe the French.

    the rain and the forecast were wrong. Turned out to be a nice day yesterday. As campinspecter headed out in the morning, there was enough sprinkles that he came back. Of course by noon it was really nice outside.

    Spent the day playing with Zoom. Tried to contact my daughter and the laptop wouldn't fire up. Uh! When you run videos and not plug in the charger, the battery dies quicker! Duh! who knew! :emb:

    campinspecter is going to try again today to get firewood. I am taking a sea cruise to take some shopping to Mom and check on her. I don't know how long I am going to able to travel over there. I think there will be major announcements today with our two levels of government.

    I heard what sounded like a robin on my walk this morning! I don't know what it'll do for food and the ground is snow covered yet.....

    It is official as of 11:00 this morning the State has been ordered to stay home. So many states are doing it that it is a wonder it has not been done on a national order.

    This won't bother us much but we surely feel for so many others that it will cause problems. So many out of work and others afraid to go to work. I pray this ends fast.

    Technically, it begins just 1 minute after midnight tonight.

    I heard last week Thu that this was her plan even though she (Gov) blatantly denied it or planning it. Must really think we are dumb bunnies. :picard:
