First Colony

My sister in Atlanta went back to work last week at the restuarant where she works. She was only responsible for one table througout the day so didn't make as much as usual. She wears a mask and gloves and isn't allowed to touch anything dirty-meaning if something has to be cleared, she has to ask one of the people responsible for that to do it.

Agreed since the two big nursing homes had severe outbreaks. And your point is well taken about rural counties. Here in Powhatan, we have had very few cases and being spread out naturally has something to do with it I think. What I don’t understand is why Virginia is so far behind in testing.

Henrico county has 835 cases and 95 deaths (second highest death total behind Fairfax). So, it's not just Tidewater and the beltway.

My sister works in a restaurant in Atlanta, and they are having a meeting today to discuss the new menu and procedures to be ready to re-open on Monday. Glad she has her job back, but worried for her health.

So, were they there?

Well, I just heard from the dentist, and they won't see me unless it's an emergency. If the pain is too much then they'll see me. If the crown comes out, I'm suposed to call them and they'll walk me through how to put it back in. I told them the whiskey is good for any pain, and they agreed that it would also help kill any bacteria. 😃 So, kind of a good news/bad news situation I suppose.

So, I have a loose crown, and I've called the dentist and am waiting to hear back. I guess I should go in to have it fixed? I'm pretty nervouse if I'm being honest. Not really practicing social distancing.

Well, I gave in and got BritBox subscription so it'll be Death in Paradise, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, and other British shows. Oh, and I do have to work from home and still call into meetings and run reports.

This is good advice for whatever the issue is.

Here in Richmond, we've been told to work from home "for the forseeable future" Yesterday afternoon people were taking home their desk chairs, files, etc. Trying not to dwell on it too much, but sometimes I go down a rabbit hole and wonder when we'll go back-if ever. Some people love working from home; I don't like it. I enjoy the intereaction, and since I'm in testing, some great solutions have happened in just casual conversations that don't exist when everyone is remote.

True but it seems as if it's all happening at once.
