Yes, we have had some relatives in Washington with scares & yes I get pissed when people around me don't take this seriously.
But this week, we learned that my son is going to lose his house because he can no longer afford the mortgage. He will be looking to rent instead. So, yes that pisses me off a lot. Also he is in a high risk profession and he got a rather nasty letter from the husband of a good friend (he is a trumpster) stating that he did not need to fill out the required patient-info-form, because freedom.
We have been taking care of our grandchildren once a week so that my daughter-in-law can work in my son's office because they are down to a skeleton crew. He is getting tested every week because he qualified for a "high risk study" program. So far he is ok. I have been trying to get tested for a week & get the same recording every time that the site is being updated - So sorry they say.
Ok, so all that set me off. I am furious already but what really has me in tears, is my 8 year old granddaughter. She is washing her hands so often that she has developed a rash. If we go for a "social distancing" walk and she or any of us touch anything - SHE FREAKS OUT. Most of the time, I just cry - but now I am more angry than sad.
Excuse me for writing all of this down here. Usually, I try to stick to political stuff, but if I couldn't write it down somewhere - I would probably be calling my friend & telling her that her trumpster husband is a prick & worse. So you guys are helping me to vent.
thank you,
