82 words.. huh... not much social isolation relief here today

May I have a nudge on that apparently weird to8, please?
5:40 am
Kallia

ends in more of matty/ to 6
5:41 am
Kallia

sorry to/5
5:41 am
mattygroves

Ah, thanks. Yep, strange word! How are you today?
5:41 am
MollyL

As in more if the Eiffel
5:42 am
MollyL

Oh, sorry, too late
5:42 am
Kallia

not too bad you? We are isolated...
5:43 am
Kallia

in more ways than one...no neighbours, cant get any groceries, hubby just went to Tesco long long queue to get in and then nothing that we needed
5:43 am
mattygroves

Arrgh!
5:44 am
Kallia

what is the matter with people....been like this all week
5:44 am
mattygroves

Jeff (my OH) is allowed out today (we were self isolating because Jeff wasn't well from last Sunday) - he's now done his 7 days, I have to do 14 so have another week to go. So he's going to pop out to see if he can get a few bits and pieces - wish us luck!
5:45 am
Kallia

oh I do wish you luck...you need to queue from 4a.m !
5:45 am
mattygroves

Well, he's going to go to the farm shop and to the local shops - slightly more expensive but (hopefully and reportedly) less manic
5:46 am
mattygroves

May I have stats, please, for the other 8?
5:46 am
Kallia

I hope so. We are isolated because of age....but we have to go out for supplies, no one else to do it. Son is a paramedic and working all hours
5:47 am
Kallia

its or....same ending as the to
5:47 am

We played Monopoly yesterday - first time I've played in over 30 years, I think
5:49 am
Kallia

Scrabble here...no idea where the games have gone too...used to have loads.
5:49 am
Kallia

Trouble is his too easy to beat....
5:50 am
mattygroves

Hah! Despite my fairly good vocabulary, I am rubbish at anagrammes, so am not great at Scrabble
5:50 am
MollyL

I used to work with a woman who had game night every Friday with friends. I hope this brings back that kind of socialization when we are done isolating.
5:51 am
Kallia

I belong to the ISC.....on line..International Scrabble club..free to join
5:51 am
Kallia

all abilities
5:51 am
Kallia

would be great Mollie, I love games of all sorts
5:52 am
Kallia

I'm down to 10
5:52 am
MollyL

In my two trips to grocery stores yesterday, I encountered four or five people coughing and sneezing. So not everyone is playing by the rules. One of them was a store employee.
5:53 am
Kallia

they should send him home...people not playing by the rules here either...congrgating at seaside resorts etc...really silly
5:53 am
mattygroves

The thing is, sometimes a cough is just a cough. Stupidly, I'm a smoker, so I do have a regular cough. But yeah, the optics aren't great, and one hopes people use tissues etc
5:54 am
Kallia

thats true Matty, but they are still supposed to self isolate..
5:54 am
MollyL

And it is pollen season, so it could be allergies. It's just unnerving at times like this. We had someone in our office sick this week and people were pissed off.
5:55 am
Kallia

I would be too. Have you heard from Ruby Molly? I know she is very poorly
5:55 am
mattygroves

It's so difficult - and here's hoping people don't start getting violet with people with a cough and with people from the far east (just Friday, someone from our local pub, who was clearly at the local to drink it dry posted some deeply awful stuff about China)
5:56 am
Kallia

you cant legislate for stupidity
5:56 am
mattygroves

And sometimes the legislators are stupid.
5:57 am
MollyL

I've read about nasty behavior towards people of Asian descent.
5:57 am
Kallia

lol yes Matty
5:57 am
MollyL

And a lot of Chinese restaurants are afraid of losing their businesses.
5:58 am
Kallia

They are all closed here
5:58 am
Kallia

pups.clubs, restaurants, theatre...
5:58 am
MollyL

Our restaurants are closed for eat in, but not for take out.
5:59 am
Kallia

ah same here
5:59 am
MollyL

That is going to put a huge dent in the restaurant business. Especially the ones who primarily serve eat in customers.
6:00 am
Kallia


yes, I'm sure there will be some nasty knock on effects for business after this is all over
6:01 am
Kallia

nice talking to you both, going to drink coffee with hubby now. Bye
6:05 am
mattygroves

bye! Stay safe and well!
6:19 am
sukee

Hi all. I am so grateful I have been getting my groceries delivered for years. I don't have to go out if I don't want to, and I haven't been out since last Wednesday. I have to do laundry soon. I live in an apartment so I will be making sure I sanitized between loads. Even now if I go put the garbage out I come in, wash my hands and then wipe down the door handles with Lysol.
6:23 am
ChampFit

That's awesome! Sounds like an easy transition for you to stay safe.
6:23 am
sukee

Yep, and I haven't been that social in the past few years. Mainly going to the gym which is closed for now.
6:24 am
sukee

Thank goodness for telephones and the internet :)
6:25 am
ChampFit

My brother owns a kickboxing studio, and he's still open. It's 9 Rounds, so a each person starts 3 minutes apart, and the rounds are separated by 6 feet anyway. Usually I'm in there with maybe one other person. Anyway, all that to say I still do that once or twice a week. Wearing my own boxing gloves, so don't touch anything anyway.
6:30 am
MollyL

Sounds like a good way to vent stress. And these are stressed times. How is the real estate business doing?
6:31 am
ChampFit

Busy. I showed homes all day yesterday with a darling couple and their 4 month old baby. They touched nothing...I did it all carefully. We took 2 cars and they followed me. Worked like a charm, and we found "the one".
6:33 am
ChampFit

To be clear, they're being relocated from Europe for his job, and have to find a home before his start date. So it's not like they're moving just because. We're on a mission!

MLFAN17

are you out of your mind lol?
11:38 am
Judi

Eva is moving into the bomb shelter.
11:39 am
cybernan

se 5: anagram of an si 5 that means to burn
11:39 am
evanonut

ha! right? i am out of my mind. but the job was accepted before this and the hubster is already in place. so that means i need to pack this joint up and get us ready to move.
11:39 am
MLFAN17

oh never mind i have it

MollyL

Champ said earlier that her real estate business is just fine. She showed houses all day yesterday. Seems weird to me.
11:40 am
evanonut

oh yeah, we sold ours in 2 days with many offers.
11:41 am
Judi

Life goes on. Congrats on selling so quickly, Eva. My step-mum sold her house in one day also. Got asking price. Said she should have asked more for it!
11:41 am
MLFAN17

!lucky you eva. not!
11:41 am
cybernan

wow - that is surprising, molly. We ordered window shades just before everything was closed -- will probably be months before they arrive now.
11:42 am
MollyL

What seems weird to me is that there are people unable to work, not generating income, worried about how they will make it financially, yet others are out buying houses.
11:42 am
evanonut

we got asking as well.
11:43 am
cybernan

the clothing manufacturers here have offered to produce maskes and haz-mat suits --- guess we will be wearing last years clothes next winter (better not gain any weight!)
11:43 am
MollyL

I guess mortgage companies are up and running too. Otherwise, how will there be closings on all these houses being sold.
11:44 am
Judi

I think people must have had plans in motion before the pandemic struck. Too late to back out.
11:44 am
evanonut

and moving companies. you know, since i cant unsell my house
11:44 am
MLFAN17

judi i was thinking the same thing
11:45 am
rururocks

do you have to move far evan?
11:45 am
MollyL

I'm sure people had plans in motion previous to all this. I'm wondering if things will get put on hold as more states move to shelter in place.
11:45 am
cybernan

maybe delayed occupancy though? I don't think I would want people coming in and handling my stuff right now.
11:45 am
evanonut

ru moving about five hours from pa to wv
11:45 am
rururocks

wow
11:46 am
evanonut

not much i can do there cyber, i can pack my own boxes, but i cannot load them
11:46 am
Judi

Lovely country in WV.
11:46 am
evanonut

it does look beautiful, we'll be right on the ohio river
11:47 am
Judi

It's a census year too. People better get busy and get counted on line.
11:47 am
MLFAN17

eva be careful, they have reported cases there recently but had none for quite a while
11:47 am
rururocks

i wonder if the census takes in people with multiple identities like we do here :D
11:48 am
evanonut

yes, i'll be right next to the hospital and i'll do what i can to isolate. but we had been dwindling supplies in preparation of moving. so i am a higher risk person but there's certain rules i'll have no choice but to break.
11:48 am
cybernan

*!*~*!* off to my e-reader before the daily corona update comes on tv -- so far only 27 cases in a very large rural BC area -- 3 of them in our town of 150,000 so far.
11:49 am
Judi

I would hope the gov would be encouraging all the people now stuck at home to complete the census on line. That old fashioned going door-to-door to do the count is not going to fly right now.
11:49 am
MLFAN17

evan yikes
11:51 am
rururocks

does the ohio river flood there?
11:52 am
cybernan

I would hope that your government is working frantically to organize a mail-in election in November. Even if this infection declines during the summer, scientists and doctors are saying it is likely it will rear it's ugly head again in the fall.
11:52 am
MLFAN17

ihae wy 5/22 which is a pl i need a clue for the other wy 5/22 pls?
11:53 am

11:54 am
cybernan

hagd everyone - 6 feet apart and stay healthy :)
11:55 am
evanonut

ru we will be in the 500 year flood plain so possible but not likely.
11:55 am
MLFAN17

Has anyone seen uusue2 recently?
11:55 am
rururocks

oh good evan.. unless you live for 500 years i guess :D
11:57 am
Judi

Yeah, stock up on sand bags, Eva.
11:58 am
evanonut

not quite how that works but i'm not much worried. don't plan to stay there too too long
11:58 am

12:26 pm
Judi

More chores await. Off I go.
12:46 pm
MollyL

I wonder how many people who eat out all the time are facing similar cooking grumbling. I'm glad that is one problem I am not looking at right now.
12:54 pm

Molly, I had an email from Ruby two days ago....said to tell all Babblers that she is still alive but will die soon and to thank Rose and others who sent mesages. I have been unwell and have not answered her but will try to tonight. She has been in bed for two weeks and has a nurse every day....for everyone who prays....let's keep dooing it. If and when I hear more, I will post...thanks
4:58 pm
sukee

So sad, I hope her son is with her.
5:01 pm
gapeach

She didn't mention it, if he is. I know she has a sister in NY who calls her every sunday. I wish I had her phone number. Ruby called me a while back and I didn't have sense enough to get her number then.
5:05 pm
gapeach

I will try to come back later.

Thanks for letting us know Peach. I am grateful to Rose for sending our messages to Ruby. I hope they comforted her and let her know how much she is loved by the people here. My good thoughts are out in Ruby's direction.
