Sorry for your loss man. All is good with my family as of now and I'm fortunately working from home. Really sucks I can't go to the gym though, been resorting to calisthenics and dumbbells as of late.
Hope things are well with the rest of you! Hang in there.

Sorry to hear that Scooby, hope the rest of the family stays healthy and happy during this time. My dad just came down with a heavy fever yesterday but it's his only symptom and he immediately went and got tested. Waiting for his results and his fever seemed to have gotten better today. We're optimistic as previously workers at his job had the regular flu and we're hoping he just picked that up. Fingers crossed. Make sure everyone out here is keeping safe and taking it seriously, you really try to ignore it til it could be one of your own. |

Sorry for your loss man. Like some of you I am also working from home since California has been one of the states impacted. The grocery stores are slowly starting to replenish some items but toilet paper is still in demand and very hard to find. I still haven't been able to buy any but luckily I had some in the meanwhile. I ended up ordering a 48 pack for close to $150 online. It's coming from somewhere overseas so I don't know if I will every get it. Earliest arrival time is May 1st. This is too crazy!!!!!!!! |

Jesus man! $150? Get a membership at Sams Club for that.. use tissue.. paper towels.. I mean.. anything.. damn! lol So.. story
Been trying to get tp for weeks. Had a 9 pack but was down to my last 3 rolls. Kept missin it by literally seconds... lol Would walk in and they'd been handing out the last package kind of crap. lol Wife goes out on Monday... Walks into Sams Club.. they are handing out the last package of tp.. but have a ton of paper towels.. lol Goes to management and is inquiring as to whether they have any more in the back. The employee puts a call into the back. While they're waiting my wife is tellin em she just needs one package. Lady walks by and hears my wifes conversation and offers hers to my wife. .. here's where it gets good.....
Lady proceeds to tell my wife that she can have the package she's got plenty at home and just picked it up BECAUSE IT WAS THERE!!!! lol Then.. proceeds to tell her that she does this often and as a matter of fact gave her best friend the last package she got for a birthday present!!!! Now .. I don't know about you .. but I was mad, then grateful .. then confused.. lol All I can say was someone was lookin out for me. but.. wow... |

Corona Virus....
If you come down with it NO IBUPROFEN! No ADVIL! Tylenol.. only. They are finding that Ibuprofen exacerbates the lung part of it. I get ADULT LIQUID TYLENOL at Walmart. Good stuff and gets to work quick. My family has been fighting a bug.. not sure if it's Corona.. We've knocked it down though.. 1000 mg vitamin C, 800 Iu of Vitamin E (180 mg) and a 300 Mg CoQ10. This with a dose of the adult liquid Tylenol and a dose of Airborne. Kicks the immune system into overdrive, knocks down the temp and gives a bit of relief.
Son, then daughter, and then my wife about 3 days ago.. Kids really just seems a bit under the weather, but wife had some chest stuff. She's up and about no issues. I take the C & E nightly.. 1000mg and 180 mg... knock on wood.. I haven't gotten sick.. so.. If you get sick.. go see the doc .. but don't take Ibuprofen... whatever you do. I take gel caps for all my vitamins.. works faster
Stay safe.. I hope this helps in the info dept.. I have asthma and migraine issues and like I said.. I've not gotten sick.

That would have made me very angry too Scooby. I do my best to just order what I need but we have a lot of people stockpiling like crazy. There are many people out there that need it more especially people with little income to spare. |

Hope y’all are doing well still! Arizona was a hot mess and still is. Governor considered hair salons to be an essential business (his wife owns salons throughout the valley) and he finally caved in to closing those down recently. We’re also just not testing people, lots are getting turned away at the drive thru locations. I’ve been staying home for a few weeks now and steering clear of people.

I am sorry to hear about your dog Scooby.
Family on my side is ok. Sister is a nurse and she didnt know she took care of 7 COVID patients. She got tested today and the results will be given on Monday.
Ive been very cautious due to my asthma disease, so I gotta stay away from everyone.
Waiting for the weather to get sunny so I go walk outside.
Glad everyone is doing ok.

Still alive here in Jersey. Shit is crazy. Laid off work, but still doing the fire/ems thing which is heartbreaking seeing the sheer number of people getting hospitalized with this daily. They aren't releasing the real death numbers here. 12/20 patients from a nearby nursing home that we cover with the Squad have died. Be safe out there people, this shit is no joke.. |

Glad you are doing well Steal! My sister's nursing team got hit with the virus. She got tested negative thankfully. Patients are dropping like flies.
Be safe everyone!

It is sad to see the people that don't think they could be infected. This disease can get you no matter how strong or how healthy you think you are capable of handling it. Ignorant people and their ignorant ways. They always place other people in danger due to their ignorant ways. Wish someone beat them with discipline when they were younger. |
