My friend Dave who I was at a concert with at the weekend is unwell and has been put in isolation. Since I have a runny nose and been coughing and sneezing I have been put in a weeks self-isolation.

Curiously I am not feeling scared for myself, although I worried for Kristi and my mum, but I get to sit in my underpants for a week, listen to music, watch bad movies and drink beer. If it does get more serious and you never see any more posts from me, just remember I went doing what I loved!

Personally, I think I just have a slight cold caused from being around smokers at the weekend and that I am going to be fine.

Here's a map with a state by state run down.

No cases in Idaho or Montana?  They must be shooting all the Coronavirus Zombies which is why there aren't any cases there.

My wife left the house at 6:15 a.m. today to get to the supermarket as soon as they opened and beat the crowds. She said it was crowded and crazy. I guess her plan didn't work.

Nothings new under the sun... , except maybe  that we have more news outlets and are so much more aware what goes on around us. The world is still the same, it's folks awareness of events that has changed.

Working in a grocery store and I can confirm that it is crazy and crowded.
