I'm happy to report that dd and sil are resting and recuperating. They are taking OTC pain killers for bumps and bruises but are OK otherwise. Sil took a week off work. Now it R who is on iv antibiotics for an infected cut. It got really out of hand so that his whole forearm swelled up. It would have been better if he had gone for treatment sooner but he was away trail riding. He arrived at the ER with a fever so right away they put him in isolation for covid. Panic! Panic! They haven't had many cases in that town. They didn't recognize what the problem was so finally he told them firmly he needed antibiotics and they acquiesced. He's getting better he says. I told him he has to rest to give help him heal. Fat chance of that on the farm.

Thanks llama and others for support. They are home safely now and I am much relieved.

This was the second roll over accident in the family. About 25 years ago my middle son who was with a friend rolled his Dodge Camero on black ice. Neither were harmed at all. Second son D got the car roof replaced and it kept going for a while. I hope there isn't a third, My oldest son doesn't drive.

I guess all's well that ends well.

golden: Oh, my! I am so glad that your dd and her hubby are okay. Wow ~ rollover. That was scary. My auto has struck while I was waiting for food at Panera Bread. I wasn't injured, but woman didn't know she'd struck my auto. Then hubs got a new-to-him truck and someone did a hit and run ~ he was uninjured. Thankful that your loved ones are okay 💞

Very much on my mind - my dd and her hub were in an auto accident -1 1/2 roll over yesterday on their way home from a holiday. Thankfully they both are ok, just a little sore, The car was totaled. They are waiting for a rental which should be available tomorrow. She will drive home as his glasses were lost, She seems OK with that and so am I. It's a 6 + hr drive with stops. I will breathe normally once they are safely home. Thankfully the nearest town and the surrounding area has 0 cases of active Covid and has had very few cases altogether. They were thoroughly checked at the hospital and no injuries found. For that I am very thankful.

Just read a post on Facebook, a mom to a group and mostly to her son, telling him that grandma is dying, visiting is up to him. Geez! I cannot believe the things that people will post on FB. Talk about manipulative, and hoping to guilt son from coming from out of state.

It's a Canadian thing Send, I suppose I should have capitalized Premier. Or maybe just said Doug Ford, but then nobody would have known who that was either. After listening to him talk every day nobody can ever accuse him of being an elitist snob...

🤔 Took me this long to get it. A premier in Hollywood is the first opening of a movie. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Then, the earth almost slipped off it's cracker this morning with a 4.2 EQ in Pacoima at 4:39 a.m., with 17 EQ's to follow in the same area. 🙃

Tweety was scared. Cage is on my bed now. 🐦

Today will be 103 degrees. 🥵️

Good Morning everyone! ❤️️

A comment from our premier after fielding questions about big parties last weekend - "you'd think the cheese slipped off the cracker with these people" 🤣

What's with all the people who post here thinking AgingCare is some kind of service provider? How can you be savvy enough to find your way here, sign up and post yet still not have a clue?

Any even more mind boggling are all the people who seem tho think they are able to apply for work through the site, and I don't mean independent workers trying to reach forum members but people who think they are communicating with a facility/agency. It sure doesn't recommend them for any position that requires brain power.

My RN friend is really worried about getting the virus from those who don't wear a mask as she bikes to work.

Polarbear, have you seen the filthy rags that are cleaning the grocery cart handle?

I would rather take my chances with the cart.

In my community they have signs posted that you must remove your gloves to avoid cross contamination and they are doing the very thing you describe.

It has to be individuals that don't believe that there really is a virus. Otherwise it means that they don't give a crap about others at all and that thought is inconceivable for the people handling my food source for me to contemplate.

I've seen grocery clerks, checkers, stockers wearing the same dirty disposable gloves to handle food items on the shelves and on the conveyor belts. Same dirty gloves to handle things for one customer after another and another...

Either dirty gloves or bare hands. No other options. Risk is always present.

If EVERYONE would wash their hands and wear a mask, it would SAVE LIVES!!!

Not a given. I have seen people in public places use the toilet, not wash their hands and get all pizzy because someone had the nerve to pass them in the isle. While everyone is wearing a mask. That one action alone would save so many lives.

Then!! It is horrifying that businesses are complaining about the cost of cleaning, they should have been doing it all along. Especially restaurants. What has this world come to?

I'm not sure what you are referring to Send, it just seems like more of the same to me?

I would hope that hand washing is just a given Isthisrealyreal, but then they did have to post lessons on how to do it properly so... maybe not 🤔?

There are so many heart-rending and bizzarre new questions lately.
I ask myself, is it true?

The masks are intended for the situations that we can not socially distance.

It amazes me that everyone is worried about masks and social distancing and washing hands is never mentioned.

Those places that opened too rapidly from the Novel Coronavirus shutdown suffer now.

Our local authorities are promoting the idea of social "bubbles" of 10 people, unfortunately some people don't quite get the concept and seem to have a different bubble for every social occasion instead of sticking to an exclusive group🤔. There also seems to be an attitude that it's OK to get in my space as long as one or both of us are wearing a mask - uhm no, back off buddy!

I am with you on this Glad. I live in NJ and they opened all the shore points. And FLorida, allowing Disneyworld and Universal to open. Now you have everyone going to Florida from all over the Country, bringing the virus back to other states. I have a friend who is now in Ocean city with family and plans on going again in August. I think our problem here in the South we have low numbers. So people don't see why they can't go on their vacations. Can't give up one Summer to help lower the spread of the Virus. This is not going to be over soon. Not looking forward to the aftermath. I have chosen to go with being on the safe side. We are staying close to home and shopping when needed. Masks in stores.

My daughter is a Nurse and is socializing with friends on a regular basis. She does woundcare so its one on one but still.

What got me thinking about this? She has felt sick twice in the last week and thinks it is dehydration and not eating properly.

These 30 and 40 somethings out doing life like they usually do. Dd1 is one of those, invincible, out with friends, no social distancing. And she works in the schools. Maybe teachers and other school staff should be required to self quarantine before school starts.

This daughter took her kids on a trip a couple weeks ago. When they returned her ex took kids to universal studios, Florida. Of course both trips, flying.

Just so disappointed in the lack of responsibility.

No words can describe the loss and pain to lose our beloved legend, Charlie Daniels. He was the best of us, a true American Patriot. Any who saw him were beyond fortunate to be in his presence. He was a great man, an exceptional, amazing artist, a true American patriot, and deeply beloved.

I vote to send this virus back where it came from with a note: 'Thanks a lot, but no thanks; it's yours, you keep it.'
