have you left the house yet? if so, where did you go?

We go for walks, bike rides, tennis in the public courts. It’s so nice out we are outside but not really engaging with people except from afar. I find it all depressing.

Since Saturday we’ve done bike rides, walks/jogs, kicked the soccer ball around, played tennis, grocery store and Target run, picked up a few items from the office. Today was our least active outside.

Grocery store. Moms in Arlington was surprisingly calm and decently stocked — their bulk goods were very well stocked.

Only into the backyard. We have plenty of supplies on hand and even rations if we need them. I filled up gallon jugs with water and popped them into the freezer. We have tanks of propane and bags of charcoal.

I figured something like this might happen. We are prepared to shelter in place until a vaccine is developed. I forgot to pick up more of my face cream but it's just not worth it to go out to the store or risk a delivery. So I'm experimenting with some homemade concoctions that should work for the next year or so until it's safe again.

I am an introvert and I am really enjoying this break from normal extroverted world. I talk walks with my family — or let the kids bike while I run after them. I enjoy saying hi to neighbors and making chit chat from afar. Is it weird that I’d prefer to always do that?!

Doctor told my visiting MIL she should assume she is positive for the virus but we have been eating separate meals and she spends most of her time in her room. None of the rest of the family have symptoms so we figured we'd better get out before they lock stuff down


Is this for real?! You are living with a presumed positive person and you went to the movies, mall, gym, and restaurants(!) the ones spreading it don’t have symptoms


I read the same thing. This had to be a troll; no one can be this stupid or selfish

I'm taking the dog for 2 mile daily walks. I also go down to my basement and do a workout video in the morning, then shower and get dressed- trying to not get into a rut.

Oh same here, but this isn’t natural or healthy for our kids long term

Besides walking the dog, I went out yesterday to fill up my gas tank. Trying to eat through most of our groceries before we go to the store again.

Two walks a day but that’s it.

Walk dog. Go into basement. Work out. Shower. Dress. Sounds like a rut to me, lol.

Maybe switch it up by doing some Tai Chi on your patio on Tues/Thurs and take a bath instead of a shower .

Is it possible to use an invisible fence with kids? I'm getting tired of reminding them of our property lines.

I think one or two zaps would do it.

My daughter and I have been home since Thursday afternoon (besides walks/backyard). My husband got gas and picked up an extra monitor from work and now we are hunkered in place.
