Just curious how quarantined everyone is....
Are you at home 24/7, do you only go out as needed, or are you coming and going like nothing happend?
For me I only go out to get food and work.

I go out for a morning walk but haven’t come within 12-15 feet of anyone and have otherwise not left the house. My wife bought groceries a little over a week ago and we are cleaning out the freezer before leaving again.
For work, I have a home office and worked from home a lot before all of this. My work life hasn’t changed all that much.
I already worked from home mostly so I was good there. I’m going out for a walk every day but staying in otherwise. Going to order something curbside pickup for dinner tonight as I’m not sure how much longer that’s going to be an option.
I’m in a big city so my food and grocery delivery or pickup options are pretty good for the time being. I took this seriously pretty early so I didn’t have to deal with empty shelves as much as a lot did when stocking up. Except for not realizing I didn’t have a thermometer until they were sold out everywhere but I was able to rectify that.
So you're saying you're the one who bought up all the toilet paper?🤔
We're leaving to get fresh groceries. We were pretty well stocked on everything non-perishable or frozen, but have an eye toward more stringent travel restrictions in the near future. My husband and I were part of a small team that live-streamed our church's service this morning. We already home schooled, so that stays the same.
I had pilonidal cyst surgery 10 days ago. I feel like it was perfect timing now that everyone is being quarantined since nobody can really do anything. Luckily, my gym hasn’t been shutdown yet so I can still do that. Other than that I haven’t left the house really.
I'm this quarantined today.
Actually no. As a guy who lives a couple of miles from a Costco I always have more TP on reserve than the average single guy. 🤣
Both the wife and I work from home so that's been no big deal. I go to the grocery store on a regular basis although not as often as I did. Was pretty common for me to go every other day at least. Now it's been every 3 or 4 days. I have no problem with going there and take my own sani-wipe for the whole shop. We're pretty good on the food supplies but always have a item or two to pick up.
I've helped take care of an elderly disable lady for 6 or 7 years now and she went into a "Senior/ Assisted Living" resident a little over a year ago. She's in the independent living area, but relies heavily on me doing her grocery shops, meds etc.. The facility is on total lockdown, so I pick up her needs and have to leave them at the front desk. I understand but I do feel for her not have the interaction. She has few visitors if any besides me.
At this time, there are no confirmed cases of the virus in this county. However, the past week we have seen an influx of folks coming in to "get away" of the populated areas. They should have brought their own TP because they've come this far thinking "no worries." Guess what?
@BiffLowman -- Where is that? Looks like an old favored spot I used to hike along on the regular.
I work from home. We go out running or on walks but maintain distance. We have gone out to the store for food and guns/ammo and when we have, we have worn a mask and used hand sanitizer before getting out of the car and when getting back in.
Working harder than ever pulling the tank around the country!
Looks like Cloudland Canyon
Home and Office, Office Closed to public. One major exception. ....
I headed to the mountains with my son for two days when he came home for spring break.
Came to our family's place in Maine. last Saturday. I only leave to go to the store. Don't really come across anybody other than in the stores. There's a Walmart in town and a local grocer, otherwise I spend all my time cooking, playing with the toddler, fiddling around in the barn, raking leaves, or tinkering with the truck.
You are correct!
