for a business that depends on crowds -- most of their events are going to be cancelled. We have the $$ to keep them afloat, thank the goddess.

As for us? Both in high-risk categories, although we both seem to have decent immune systems. Who knows what would happen if we caught this shit? They are about to close the schools here, so there will be less contact with other kids through grandchild. I have stopped going to the gym.

I can't say that I feel overly nervous, but only that I wish all this stuff would be over with. The stress seems to be in the waiting. And knowing that Dipshit can't punch his way out of a paper bag.

Update: They've just closed all schools in the county until the end of March.
