I can barely focus on anything. If they sound the alarm here I am fucked.

Were still out walking, gardening and going to the dog park

No one so far here has tested positive. I've been evacuated twice for fires, and I much prefer this. We're retired, so we'll be fine financially. I prefer sitting around the house rather than having to leave with ten minutes notice to gather up what I can and wonder if I will ever see my house again.

And youre right, leaving your house not knowing if it will be there is definitely worse
The similarity was yesterday in the grocery store, everyone seems to be in a daze
