We’re off to Denver today for a social distancing bbq lunch at Jeff and Tina’s. We were going down last weekend but decided to wait for better weather. We’ll all stay six feet apart in their backyard and hang out together for a few hours. Consider it a test run for the new normal. Meanwhile the boys will stay here at home with the dogs. We invited them but they declined.
Lori’s doctor tried to get her back to work yesterday but apparently the clinic needs to reach some threshold before they bring back anyone. Lori felt good though knowing her surgeon was fighting for her. We’ll see what happens later this week as they’re supposed to open up our County a bit.
I don’t know about you but I’m sick of watching people from the news broadcast from their homes. These people have all been quarantined for months and could easily do the news from the studio. Guess it wouldn’t create the same drama.
It’s 8 am as we slept in. We were headed to the gym at 5:30 but Lori wouldn’t get up, even though she said she wanted to! Dogs have been out, boys are sleeping and I have a few trash cans to empty and put out before we go.
Lots of States are debating how to reopen. It’s clear many in the Country have had enough. One things for sure, the economy has had enough. I mean something has to give. We just can’t go on forever staying locked down. It’s a slippery slope but this thing could be with us forever from now on. It might not go away, ever. Knowing this we just need to figure out now how to live with it. They’re now saying a second wave could come this Fall or Winter that could be worse as it’ll be coupled with the seasonal flu. So sadly we need to think about how to now live with this shit. Just saying. Personally I think life’s going to be much simpler. In many ways we’ll go back in time a few decades in the way we live. We’ll see. Exciting changing times we now live in. God Bless.
