* The European Union might be done for. Whenever a crisis happens Europe is NOT a Union, every country is on its own doing their own thing. Except when ordering companies like Netflix to artificially limit the bitrate of streaming videos, despite specific countries not having any bandwith issues even with the 25% rise in internet useage.

Today I trained so hard that I can barely walk, I can go a couple meters then my legs simply give up. Maybe I went a little overboard with front squats and deadlifts today, I don't even want to know how sore my muscles will become over the next few days.

Today I picked up some essential stuff at my daughter's school, which closed down like every other school here. I took the bus, which seems perfectly safe these days since not many people currently use public transportation, and I just had to take a picture of my town's central bus station: Monday morning, more buses than passengers... And my employer called if I would please please please get back to work, since that rash decision came back to bite them in the @ so to speak.

My dog has a bad case of diarrhea. So I was forced to go to the vet a few times. Yesterday morning the limit was 4 people in the waiting room. The staff was wearing cheap paper masks.
Today nobody is allowed in the waiting room anymore.You have to drop your pet off and leave! Twenty minutes later they called me back and I could pick the dog up again.
Meanwhile my best friend's kindergarten is open for emergency care. BUT it's 20 teachers watching ONE kid! Then last Thursday turns out the kid's dad is positive! My friend got herselfa sick note and is self quarantined this week. But they did NOT test anybody!!! I'm not even sure they tested the kid...
They'll soon have 15 kids of doctors to watch and nobody is going to do testing, it seems. Probably not enough test kits around.
My company still sends us to help out another department where the equipment changes hands 100 times a day and people have to share workstations and headphones.
WTF
Everybody is still going to get infected at work and then infect their families at home. Soft lockdowns are pointless imo.

I was pleasantly surprised too! However, since my job isn't 'critical' (I work on packaging machines for food and cigars), I wonder for how long...

First week of my layoff. I work for a supplier for the "Big Three". Was suppose to be back to work on the 30th but our good governor Moonbeam decided today that only essential jobs are permitted, everyone else, stay home! So I doubt making cars is essential. This will be long and boring AF.

Uk now officially in lockdown for who knows how long. I think it's going to be really bad here, there were and are too many "immortal" people here who don't take this virus seriously.

I haven't been too active over the past couple weeks due to illness. First I get some freak cold/flu hybrid and then followed up by pneumonia. I've never had pneumonia before. I'm probably 80% now, still have a lingering couch and still get winded if I do too much. Hmm Feb 16 and Corona wasn't a big deal in the States.
As for today, today's excitement under the "stay home order" was cleaning my shed. Yes quite exciting. Found some things to sell at least

Spent my free time digging potato patches, really big ones this time. With only a shovel and no other tools that's some manly work. I totally noticed my improved fitness and power from all the weight lifting during digging. I even broke the last 1/3 of the shovels shaft halfway in, but I still finished my patches with it. Garden work is awesome. Now I'm going to plant some pumpkin seeds (edible) which I got from my pumpkin harvest last year. This year my garden will be bigger and better.

Gardening is not even a thought here yet. Still two feet of snow on the ground, shitty cold weather, no end in sight for the forecast. This really has been the worse spring ever, just totally demoralizing.
I do agree about garden work, very satisfying to have a hard days work of gardening.

You could start planting seeds indoors, I still cannot plant seeds or little seedlings outside as its still too cold here. But at least temps above freezing. Don't worry, spring will come eventually!

Well, our supply chain finally fell apart today. No frozen, dairy, produce, meat, or seafood.
At least it's helping with social distancing, since I've got nothing to sell. I feel like I'm in the cheeseshop sketch.

I had to do a couple new online spreadsheets for taxes and stuff, which were not only poorly programmed bug-ridden glitchy pieces of shit, they also required me to dig out dozens of documents that were so old they were written in cuneiform script and the papyrus crumbled in my hands. It took me an hour to find them all - that I was able to find them is a small miracle in itself. I tell you, you know the gods want to destroy you if you suddenly have to deal with unusual amounts of nasty bureaucracy.

I was certain the world was about to end when I won 2 Solitaire games in a row (regular and then Spider) and it was looking as if I'd win at Mahjong as well. I was saved at the last minute when the final 4 tiles were alternated in a single row so I couldn't make a match with either pair.

I would have hated to be killed by an exploding earth because somebody won a couple card games somewhere.

I went back to work today. I'm one of those pesky, annoying, irreplaceable persons. So they had to call me for a favor. I expected it. And I had agreed already in advance, when I quit, to help them fix problems if needed. I didn't finish, so I'll go back tomorrow. I gotta say, I kinda livened up a bit in my office . They had left it exactly as it was. No one has moved in. No one has moved "my" stuff. I thrived, but I'm sure it was just the relief from "cabin fever". (...I hope. What if I can't be happy not working? )

I worked again. And it was sorta fun again. But this time I was also relieved to discover that I'd rather do something different with my day. So I'm fine with having quit. It's not like I'm totally quitting. I'll be back again, in a month or two, when they get some things ready and begin testing. There's only so much you can do in theory, trying to imagine things. It's a lot of ambivalent feelings. But I think I can have them now, embrace it, without feeling some weird kind of loss & depression, like yesterday. Now I know I'd really rather do something different at home. But you have feelings of belonging. You have feelings of ownership. "This is mine". God help me, but I love "my" desk. "My" office. "My" lawn, my crows, my harriers (the sun was shining and they were there again , I was relieved and happy to see them well). It feels good. I'm finally completely satisfied with having quit my job. ...And I think I can go back there and work a day or two, every or every other month. Maybe I can keep that up for years. Now, if only that Covid-19 would go away...
