waiting out the storm (virus)

Good time to load ammunition. Still have snow on the ground and cannot run tractor for a while anyway due to ankle broken.

I've have enough rainy day projects to keep me busy for months because it seldom rains here.

Unfortunately memory care giving is like house arrest so cabin fever might be more appropriate...

Two days a week Mom has been going to the senior center but that option no longer exists for now...

Glad to hear it James. You are my Barometer to know when Spring's coming. No blooming up here. Trees are barely showing signs of life. I fertilized my new yard a week ago. It's wanting to wake up.

Have you saw any Purple Martins down there yet?

We never see any here,, We are too wooded. They like more open country to catch flying insects in.

I was mostly thinking as a sports fan as per the topic...mainly golf...not much of a b-ball fan but I know there is a huge amount of disappointed fans and I feel sorry for the student athletes that are not going to get their deserved chances at something special...

There are going to be new gaps in the record books that to date have only been associated with world wars...

With no sports to watch...I will make two (TIC) predictions...with no sports to watch we will either see more spousal abuse reports...and or there will be a new baby boom starting in a year or so...?

Yep good time to load some more pistol ammo.

Daffodils in my yard started blooming here early this week. I saw them blooming several days earlier on the interstate median.

You guys are giving me hope!!! Seems like we've been at this a long time. Four and a half months since our first snow..... Snowed most of the day today but the ground was too warm for it to stay.

Just got out of the pool in the back yard water is 80 degrees, do I feel guilty while the rest freeze?
I will be swimming every day until I drop 5 lbs, and driving tractors.

I have been outside for a week because of the warm weather. Today I spread mulch on blueberry bushes, more to do tomorrow. Two weeks ago I went on Amazon and bought spaghetti, sauce, PB&J, tuna, and other dry goods. My wife went to the grocery today and she said many empty shelves including produce. It’s coming. We are retired and live in the country. I can see busy families with school kids are gonna experience it a bit harder. Good luck to everybody. Oh, our one daily trip is to the gym in midday, they seem to be aware of safeguards.

Just curious...is the latter (highlight) also a social thing?...personally if it's warm enough to be outside I can always find stuff to do that exercises my body more than any gym session can...??
