Quarantine check in
mare:
I’m pretty sure all these kids are done for the year.
RokofAges75:
So sad. Our school talent show was supposed to be tonight. I'm co-sponsor of the student council, and that's my big event to plan, literally my favorite part of the school year. I'm feeling it today.
Our "spring break" starts Saturday, which doesn't mean much now. I'm glad I didn't have any big spring break trips planned this year. I was going to drive down to St. Louis for a couple days with a friend and her kids, but that's not happening now.
Rose:
I'm wondering if anything we planned will be able to happen this year, at this point.
RokofAges75:
Ugh... please let this be over by summer!
RokofAges75:
Here's something that gives me hope for this to be better by summer: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/china/ If you look at the charts for China, where this all started, the curve flattened or dropped about a month into the epidemic. It's been about three weeks since things started getting bad here in the States, and the dates for UK and Canada look similar. If people will just stay quarantined for the rest of the month and stop spreading it, our numbers should look much better by May.
That being said, if the last four years have taught me anything, it's that at least a quarter of the people in this country are complete morons, so it will depend on whether or not we can get those people to follow directions. Sigh.
