I don't go out much and live in a very rural area. Don'i watch TV much so I don't hear much about it anyway.

like CathyAnn, I live in a rural area and don't do anything except go to work. I'm not worried about catching it myself, not that I'm young but healthy enough that I believe it would probably only put me in bed a couple days. And then I could catch up on my reading, so that's not a problem :)
But I wouldn't want to be spreading it around if I had it and didn't know about it.

Was at the grocery store yesterday and they were out of toilet paper. Seriously? People are facing potential Armageddon and they are hoarding toilet paper? All I can say is WTF?

So many people in panic mode and the spread rate is not even high yet. Such a difference between buy a few extras to stock up and hording due to panic. We will get through it.

It's hard to continue doing the usual when everything is closed. Ro and I were just out yesterday to an appointment was all. If everything wasn't closed, I don't have much reason to be out, but if I had, it would be with a watchful eye is all. Ro has been out a few times and this morning was for old people grocery shopping hour then home.

Seeing as California is now closed I figured maybe I should get to the store and pick up a few things. First thing I noticed was it was 8:30 AM and I could drive 70 on the 710, like that is ever going to happen again. :lol: I got to the grocery store and was surprised by how few cars there were in the lot. I did get everything I wanted even TP though they had a limit of two packs so I got two. My next stop was the drug store and picked up a few essentials like mascara and some lipstick and again it was pretty much empty. Definitely going to be interesting to see how long all of this lasts and if it really works.

Went to get chicken & peppers for fajitas Monday morning, shelves were bare of both meat and veggies. The restocked later that day, went again 2 days later and peppers were already aged.
