Timeframes?

Our president wants our national quarantine to end by Easter. But it's not really up to him to lift states' stay-at-home orders; it's up to our governors. The governor of California tactfully said it will might more like 8-12 weeks, which puts us into July. And the best estimates for getting a vaccine out to the masses is about 18 months

Fortunately, although my husband works as a bartender, his place of business has been doing take-out, with him manning the phones and getting the orders together, as he has seniority. WHEW! He's been getting awesome tips, however, he has also been getting no days off. He feels guilty about awesome tips, but I tell him that the restaurant may decide at any moment that they aren't making enough profit to keep this up, OR one of us may get sick, so don't look a gift-horse in the mouth and just go with it. Also, it keeps him from drinking all day from boredom. I've got that area covered.... (jk... kind of...)

I'm glad he has work. Yes, don't look gift horses in the mouth.

I hope we're in it for the long-enough haul. :)

Newsom is probably going to have these in place for quite a while. If he goes his full 12 weeks, it will be end of June. Hopefully that will get us to a place of not overwhelming the system.

We're all tucked in here for the duration. Hard to write with Mr. Squib and a pair of squiblets talking to me all the time.

Same here. My president is taking baby steps towards the precautions. Sigh.
Have you join covidwrimo ? It might be fun and a way to support each other.
