Neverending Covid-19 Coronavirus

the weather's been pretty mild here in NY for this time of year so yesterday we went to the beach by us since we could go out, get some fresh air, let the kids play and keep social distance. this afternoon we decided to go again and there was a barricade of police officers turning everyone away.
 
With the news of Ohio and Illinois closing all bars and restaurants, thinking Michigan will do the same any hour now.

It's already happened here in Quebec and we're easily a week to two weeks behind the US with spreading.

Schools closed.
Daycares closed.
Bars closed.
Theaters closed.
Pools, gyms, libraries, arenas closed.
All those above 70 are asked to stay home.
Work from home recommended where possible.
Restaurants must work at 50% capacity (not that there's anyone going).
Most stores have drastically cut back hours (looks like they're empty now though).
Everyone told not to travel abroad and all those abroad were asked to return home.
Everyone returning from any other country must stay home two weeks.
Everyone in health care or working with government with symptoms home by law.
 
Just got a "business as usual" email from work (I'm a civilian teacher on a military base in California). Personally, I think it's because they weren't prepared and only gave us the software for remote teaching last week, with training on Thursday and a test of the software on Friday. We're supposed to do a bunch of training and fill out telework forms tomorrow while still teaching, so I'm sure tomorrow will be interesting, to say the least. The email said we'll probably test the software again on Tuesday.
 
i am already in a depressed state because im going to be locked in my house for 8 weeks and have nothing to do for my entire school year


Nothing to do. We have plenty of things to do. I mean we have the internet. Hundreds to maybe thousands of records. Probably neglected instruments we should be playing. I mean get some paper and some markers and just draw. It doesn’t have to be amazing just do it. People have lists of movies that they want to watch.

Not that I’ve done any of this. I took a long nap and played a kids video game most of the day, Tag w/ Ryan.

Edit: oh yea there was the 15 minutes of Tai chi I did this morning.
