My full head o' ol' gray hair is so darn long these days I wear a ball cap every day now to try and help keep it outta' my face...I'm tempted to do like your hubby, but, DWifey would not be pleased. Even though she likes my hair shorter than it is now, she definitely doesn't want me to buzz it all off...!!!!!

it's just hair..it grows back =D

Listen to DWifey!! I feel the same way -- I couldn't believe he cut it all off and looks like Yul Brenner now?!!

Yeah apparently he worked the rest of his shift and he's on the schedule for today as well

Good lord, the poor man should take today off, at least. So sorry to hear he was injured. Hope the cops get the scum who attacked him. You be careful, yourself, and take good care.

 

[donaldtoo]

Yep, ours were direct-deposited Wednesday mornin' too...!!!
Fortunately, we've still got projects pilin' up at the firm, and I'm REALLY gettin' used to this lockdown WFH thang...!!!!!

Drum roll . . .

My sneakers just arrived!! TEN DAYS for Fedex to deliver from CA . . .

(Heck, if I knew that was going to be the case, I would have told them to hang on to the box. And I'd go out there to pick it up, and I could probably walk across country back here quicker than their delivery service?!)

Our governor said that he doesn’t plan on keeping the state locked down past May 1. He said reports that came out earlier today that referenced PA as being one of the other northeast states that would stay locked down until May 15 was false. VA governor is keeping it locked down till June 1. I don’t think that will hold. Ohio is opening up May 1.

Schools are closed here until May 15 at least. Idk when our governor plans to reopen. With being so close to DC, it's reasonable to think it will be a slower process. Our cases are centered around the DC metro area. I think we're at 10,000+ in the state.

I've given the matter considerable thought and I've decided I hate the cold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, cold and snow can stick it...that's why we live in central TEXAS...!!!!!!!!!!!

It's sad, really. They can be such heroes, so it's sad when they are second guessing that. But I totally understand. It must be scary to watch in the medical industry...lack of supplies, losing patients and even colleagues. Most get into it to help people and make a difference, never really thinking they might be risking their lives to do that.

I don't understand something. Why did they want to be Doctors to begin with? Was it just for the money? Didn't they realize that they would be working with sick people? Shouldn't the motivation for becoming a Doctor to help people get healthy again? And because of that they would always be front line to any and all illnesses. Probably better that they did get the reality check before the spent thousands of dollars and then decide it was a hazard filled vocation.

As I anticipated our school buildings are officially closed for the balance of the school year private and public. Announced by Governor this afternoon.

The possibility of a pandemic was announced by the government 15 years ago. Ideally, we all should have seen this coming, a pandemic every hundred years.

Americans only should be angry at the lack of preparedness.

I’m honestly not angry at any of the decision makers in the US, I don’t see any reason to be angry. We have gotten thru this so much better than what was expected. We didn’t experience what places like China, Italy, and Spain have experienced. We never ran out of beds, we never ran out of respirators..and most importantly, deaths have been well under what was predicted. I hope it continues this way.
I don’t know why our results were so much better than other countries, but I’m sure we’ll find out, eventually. I just feel like we should be thankful that it wasn’t worse, I am.
