No longer own the A/C business, and have been trying to make do as an all-around handiman. Was slim pickens - people just don't want to pay real money for repairs these days. Would rather just plop down the CC and get new stuff with a "warranty".

Well, the virus has pretty much killed the little bit I had. So I stay home as a house husband and keep the homestead going. Lots of stuff on this old house needs fixing!

I'm retired, so not much change. I'm missing the Sunday fleamarket , though, no gatherings and 6ft apart. I couldn't take my wife out for dinner on our anniversary , take out only, I cooked waffles for breakfast instead. Hope you stay safe. Ray

We have been staying home as much as possible. One friend got it and has recovered.

Been trying to stay out of stores as much as possible.  Tamara is working now but in an office with few people.  I'm still unemployed and home a lot.  We'll say a prayer for you Dan.

So far my wife and I are holding our own, fighting the fever. My son seems to have gotten past any danger zones, but his wife is now in the hospital on a ventolator and being kept in an induced coma.

God be with you and yours.  I'm more or less on quarantine as someone in our small church tested positive.

They want me to go to the hospital, but I wont go. My wife and I are holding our own. My daughter in law died this morning in the hospital, my son and grandsons are still infected and active. They cannot even say goodbye to their wife and mother.  We did find out that we did not get it from our sons job at the bars, they have been thourgholy checked out and clearded. It turns out that the day before I helped move the furniture, while my son was at work, his wife got bored and went to the YMCA for a swim without telling anyone. There has been 2 other deaths of people in that pool that day. Please stay away from others until a cure can be found!
