Yikes I'm glad I don't need any right now and have a pattern for when I do:D

I’m not joking when I say that “I can’t even sew a button” 😂🤦‍♀️...so to think of sewing an entire sports bra, is just way beyond my already non-existent skill level. I just try to buy them when they’re on sale. UA has my favorite, D i c k’s Sporting Goods had some great deals this weekend + another 20% with an emailed scorecard promotion. They definitely went quickly though!

Here in NC we have had a total number of deaths at 299 with 451 currently hospitalized. In my county 663 confirmed cases with 13 deaths. I guess we are doing fairly well, all things considered.
Yes you are. It seems statistically likely that NJ will exceed 6,000 deaths by this time tomorrow. NY has the most deaths in America and my state is #2 in that sad statistic. Almost everyone on this forum seems to be doing a good job focusing on happy things. It would've been ok if anyone asked me what it is like to be in this Covid 19 hotspot.

I’m just glad that you and others on this thread seem to be staying healthy and somewhat sane. 🙂

We are at 43,903 Illinois (1,933) though we know the numbers are WAY off. Just last week we had some limited testing on a whole people very sick. We are locked down until May 30th at Least.

I would never ask anyone what it is like to be in the hot spot. My DD good friend parents drove to NY to snarf their DD up and out of there just as that sealed quarantine area was to sealed. I wouldn’t ask her that question either cause an obvious-answer is right there.

I believe many of us are becoming a bit squirrelly. This is stressful for all of us one way or another. I’d no more ask someone who’s family members all lost employment how that feels to be financially insecure as the year goes on. It just seems to be a harsh and callus inquiry.

it is not a lack of caring it is more I would listen if someone wanted to share their rough times. I take my cue from people in a bad situations, If they are not share I’d listen more then pry.

Be well. 💕

We are well, knocks wood. Hope you guys are too. We are trying hard to stay busy and change things up. Any variety we can conjure up and we are in. My DD plugged in her Wii that has been out of the closet as an example. A puzzle which never happens around here.

Like many odd things Easter, not seeing my Mom, my Birthday this month, not going to WDW and most likely no Mother’s Day, traditions this year for me or my Mom I’d say we are doing pretty well. I haven’t been in any type of store in a month. Me I am now a master of curbside pick up and mastering the skills of snagging good time slots, our FP+ skills have paid off!!!

Blessed to be healthy and everyone is still receiving a paycheck and employed.

Hopefully the masks I ordered will come before May 1st. In the meantime I stay out of the grocery store. Everyone in my family is balking at wearing a mask, including me. However, you gotta do, what you gotta do.
Ha! So true. I made a mask for my Mom and the 3 year old next door this week plus some for my family. The law for IL that 2+ up is rough. Try and get a 2 year old to wear a mask let alone find one for a tiny face. I don’t disagree but then make them available for toddlers government. He lives Superman so I made him a Superman mask.

I was having weird dreams about going to Disneyworld last night. First I dreamed that we were flying in and were staying at pop century, but the magical express dropped everyone off at Liberty Tree Tavern, which was a resort rather than a restaurant, and it had a kind of boardwalk path that you could walk to other resorts. The resorts were all pretty close together, but for some reason Pop Century was further away and the bus to get there from wherever we were (we had walked to another resort) was not running yet. So we went swimming at another resort until the buses started going. Then I dreamed that we were staying at Fort Wilderness, and I was really excited to get to go to the campfire. Rocket Raccoon was there doing cartwheels and walkovers, etc.

My state is #3 behind yours (2,899 dead as of yesterday, and new cases constantly rising), but I'd never expect anyone to ask me about it. IMO, the reality is that everyone is either suffering or inconvenienced, no matter where the live in the world right now.

That being said, I find this thread uplifting most of the time, and that's why I frequent it. :) It's good to have some rays of sunshine in the storm.

Here in SC our total cases are a liitle over 5000 and 174 deaths and cases still on the rise. The governor will probably extent the stay at home order for another 15 days. It has been rough on my son and his girl friend, if the relationship survives covid-19 its meant to be.
Supposed to be in the low 70's today and no rain --rain later in the week-- been a wet spring

One thing that I’ve been seeing a lot of lately, is people are going around and teepeeing houses of seniors and eighth graders who are missing their spring seasons in sports. Mostly with streamers instead of toilet paper, and yard signs. It’s pretty neat. I just feel so sorry for those kids.

You must have been using talk to text or something but it took me a moment to get what you were saying. I thought briefly that someone was going around peeing on things. 🤪 :joyfull:
