“Dad”, said the Cub, “how long is this corona thing going to last for?”
“Don’t know, Cub”, I replied. “We’re relying on the doctors and scientists to tell us when things get back to normal.”
“So it could go on for a long time, like months?”
“Maybe. We just don’t know.”
“So there might be no Hallowe’een?!?”
In the USA I can’t imagine that there will be party conventions. Who will allow/want to gather in such a dense mass even if things do improve. Halloween can always be held at home with costumes and decorations and candy. There is hope.
From someone’s tweet:
When I told 3yo we couldn’t go out again she asked if it was because of the corona pirates.
I said yes.
The lil’wrekker, who is 21yo. Is threatening a break out. She’s not as used to isolation as I am. I keep telling her there’s no where to go except Wal-Mart or a grocery store and those places are too dangerous right now. We have all we need. DIL picked up my insulin thru the drive up window.
Even Big Wrek had decided its too scary to go out.
We are in for the duration
Keep Calm and Sanitize.
