19 crows in 19 trees

COVID-19. It’s affecting all of us in one way or another. Never in our lifetimes have we seen something of this magnitude and severity. So today, check in with yourself and your fellow competitors - how are you? Where is your head at? What’s worrying you? Let’s gather our WDC community around us and hunker down together.


CORVID-19 on the 19th? Coincidence? Nah... and yes, I misspelled it as corvid. I thought of 19 crows sitting in the 19 trees of Twenty Trees in Upper Derbyshire ... and yes there are 19 not 20.

I've been obsessed by this pandemic since it became widely know in Taiwan while I was visiting there. I've blogged about it a lot, posted on spacebook ... A LOT. There's not much I can add.

I responded to Charlie ~ I just got up ... read "make a new baby" instead of "pick up a new hobby". And there will be a batch 9-11 months from now! The Quarantinis.

"Life is over and we're in Hell." Well I probably am already! I did go to the store yesterday because they have the new sales on Wednesday. Picked up potatoes (they were out of potatoes, rice and bananas earlier this week).

No, this isn't the end of the world. 95% of those near the epicenter survived. But, for me personally, I'm edging into *high-risk*, and waiting for it to hit here is nerve-wracking. I think we have 3 cases locally.

I go out for walks. Very few people around. I'm distancing to an extent.

Yes, this lack-of-contact is bound to affect me mentally.

I might expand on this later after I read and comment on everyone else's blog. It's 10 am and I haven't had my coffee yet. Laters...
