I bet. I'm starting to feel the four walls closing in on me. I've got some projects to do but it's only 4-5 days of work at most. Though if the temps keep hitting high 80's I might just get the evap cooler going. probably find several wasp nests in it! :-\

We take a lot of walks with the dog. Fresh air, no traffic, and not that many folks underfoot. It works for us; we do 1-1/2 -2 miles almost every day (when it's not raining).

I went to Ace Hardware last week and they had six foot marks on the floor and sneeze guards for the cashiers.   We are on the 2nd week of homeschooling, kids had music lessons via Zoom.  Wife works remotely with busy office tasks.  Take a walk occasionally.  Youngest and I rode the Harley for a half hour yesterday.  Been cleaning on my shed and house garage, will have to go out and buy 20' x 40' worth of metal roofing to fix 6 holes in the roof from tree damage. Changed oil in the van today, wife took dogs to the vet (vet picked up/delivered dogs at back of van) and hauled home $200 worth of groceries.  That is one thing we are spending more money on is food since we have not eaten away from home for 2 weeks (school or restaurants).

Still working, was a ton of jobs in the pipeline when the corona hit the fan. Little leery of staying in hotels, no food available or at least very few options on the road for me and my diet. Working outside for the most part. Think that is better than inside but who knows. Today its pouring so day off. Went to home depot and bought some painting supplies in case everything gets shut down. Some rooms need paint so that would keep me busy.

Grocery bill definitely bigger.   Trip to JD for mower parts, rebuilt the mower deck, nice little job.   Been cutting brush around the farm buildings, dragging it to the burn pile.  After we got two of the saws running.  A job  to be done before the leaves  set on.  Put up the trim work on the laundry room  remodel, now to put down the counter tops.  Never was one to hang around town, so am pretty content out here in the hills.  Now  to see if there is tp at the next grocery trip.

I had to get out yesterday. I went to the Indian Rez for gas. $ 1.16 a gallon. I should have brought a few gas cans. I stopped at the Dollar General and bought the last 24 pk of TP. Then I stopped at Aldi's and grabbed the last 12 pk of TP. A woman asked if it was the last pack as she was almost out at home. At checkout , she was behind me. As I was bagging my stuff I tossed 4 rolls in her cart when she wasn't looking. Maybe someone will do that for me someday.

We are working and business is decent.  Getting more and more leery of having people come into the store.  Front door has been locked and I  think I will start tryig to serve folks at the door.I do notice businesses are slowing down. Going to be an interesting ride the rest of the year.

The wife has a buzzer button mounted next to the door at work and they keep the door locked. Too many damn tool salesmen and solicitors would just walk in otherwise. A sign tells them by appointment only but good luck trying to get one.
