I will skip the manicure and the full-body massage for now.
And cut my own hair.
And still wear a mask.
And wash my hands.
And use curb-side pick-up to support my favorite local restaurants.
And avoid trying on new clothes (or even going into a clothing store).
And keep social distancing.
It isn't that hard to stay safe.
