    My state will officially go on lockdown tomorrow at 5. Worry has officially hit me.

    I'm on California... It's not that bad honestly,

    I'm more worried about the financial aspect of it

    right...me too
    how is this sustainable?
    I'm scared
    I don't understand the financial impact (not that I have savings) but it seems like a grim situation...
    ...and I am just scared

    I have a friend who is very experienced with animals and she is currently trying to rehab a duckling with neurological issues. I think it’s a lost cause.

    She has asked me if I would be willing to euthanize the poor little thing if it comes to that. With birds it’s a very up close and personal thing. 😢

    Probably why the universe has chosen you 😘

    A guy I used to be friends with just posted something and this line stuck out to me big time. I asked him if I could repost.

    “Everyone’s so worried about catching ms. corona but killing yourselves on a regular basis with the unhealthy choices you make on the daily.”

    Not everyone of course, but wow.

    I've thought about this before... We still go get fast-food and all and I ate half a box of Oreos yesterday 🤷🏽‍♂️....

    Most of our health issues today can be linked to the food industry... It's taboo to say that around here but so true

    Right. His post was actually pretty deep. Not even really food related. He was talking about having toxic people around you, not having self love, spirituality. It was really good. This dude...he pretty much grew up here in the ghetto. Now he’s a world traveler. He’s in Vietnam right now I think. He just travels to all these interesting places....spiritual places, awesome beaches. It’s quite an amazing life he’s made for himself.

    I’m definitely not knocking anyone’s food choices or anything like that.

    All I got to say is the mangers of target, Walmart etc...

    Better not cave and accept returns for tp, sanitizer etc... When this *kitten* blows over...

    I can't wait to see all these *kitten* people all pissed off in the return lines having to walk out of the store with their ill begotten gains...

    My 53 year old aunt has been coughing for more than a week! And she lives with my grandparents and another at high-risk aunt. Hope it's just regular flu.

    you're able to access 5 free films a month there. *and more if your kids have library cards like mine do and they make an account i can access - ;)

    i know it's not a lot - but there's some fantastic films of all genres there. i highly recommend it
    have a great weekend all - xo!~

    words whose meanings have been hijacked and changed,
    words that are used to express feelings,

    I am trying to pay more attention to the words I use.
    The perfect word to express my thought.
    It’ll make you crazy. Er insane. No, nuts.

    I've been an avid dictionary reader since I was a kid...maybe because I like to "understand" or maybe because "I'm too literal"
    ...I read a lot as a kid/teen - and still can't move past a point in a book if I don't know the word

    thank-you! I take that as a compliment! Especially from you!

    you know what's kinda funny? I was/am always asked to 'speak up' (more so as a teen) ...'cause I had/have a soft voice...to me it's like I'm yelling!
    In my head, my voice sounds loud - to others its soft and quiet?

    ...omg now I wonder if there is something wrong with me!🤔😉

    I've been struggling to find time to run (or exercise in general) since moving. I've started to take a walk during my lunch break and figured I might as well track those on the app as a way to keep me motivated.

    For mom's like me who will be the main caregiver through this quarantine period I felt the need to buy things to keep me sane through it all so I've bought a few things for when I go lock myself in the room and have alone time. A sketch pad, Notepad, crossword puzzle & most importantly, wine!

    I think I will be okay. If y'all don't hear from me in a few days send help. Kthanks!
