The only real difference in my life is that I'm no longer going to the gym. I'm jogging outside instead. (Granted, in Ohio, this can difficult between October and May!).
Otherwise, it's work, home, crossword puzzle, dinner and bed. Same as always.
Not so sure how much longer "work" will be there, though. I work for a company that owns retail properties, and they're getting hit hard. A month or two of this and I'll be looking for another job. I feel really bad for those who were immediately impacted by all the shutdowns and who had no time to prepare. Usually, these folks have little savings to rely on.
Oof! I definitely hope you won't be out of a job, Jim. At the same time, I think it's likely it'll last more than a month or two. :(
There might be a winter seasonality to this coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19) as there are for most coronaviruses. If so, then the summer months might prove a backstop and stop its transmission. However, this is far from certain, primarily because it is a novel virus. If you (or anyone else) is interested, this older paper in light of the SARS epidemic in 2003 (SARS was the "first" coronavirus, this one now is literally called SARS-2) is one I've seen infectious disease physicians recommend.
I'm in this picture and I don't like it.
ReplyDeleteLol, if it’s any consolation, I’m in it too. :) But the opposite corner since we’re supposed to be isolated.
