Hang on and in

I have been silent on the subject of the virus that is floating around in our world mostly cause anything I have to say has already been said.

But we know that I always have an opinion on almost everything so here goes.

Now is definitely not the time to panic.  That being said neither it is the time to go "poo poo" it's probably overblown - or a tactic to distract us from the elections - or a scam to sell more kleenex...

Gear up, cowboy up, put on your big girl/boy pants (your choice), suck it up and throw your common sense into high gear.

Am I uncomfortable being in the age group that is said to be at most risk of serious effects from this crap?  You can bet your ass on that.  Not able to deny my age any longer (the wrinkles give that away if not my birth date)!

Do I still have a pretty fair stash of staples and paper goods (like, god forbid we all run out of toilet paper?) and do I intent to socially distance myself from crowds?

Betting that ass again.

Face it - we never thought that anything could come close to shutting this country down to the extent that this situation has.  All my boring warnings have borne an ugly fruit but we are where we are so the only way to go is forward.

Stay away from crowds, stay home if you are sick (any sick) and remember the benefits of ordering most anything you really need on line. 

I don't know all your politics but now that our government has gotten it's fingers out of where the sun doesn't shine (if however late in the game) the best contribution we all can make is to avoid getting sick the best we can.

For sure, my house has never been so disinfected - the dog barely recognizes it any more.

As my son wrote to me the other day:  stay save and sane!
