Covid 19 || The Pandemic

I guess you don't know what writing about living during a Pandemic will
feel like until you are in the midst of it.
Today, it feel remarkably like everyday life at our home.
We have been safe thus far. 
We are taking every single precaution recommended by the CDC and our government.
We are staying home, going to store only when necessary and combining trips out.
We have gotten take out to continue to support our local restaurants and only shopped in town
to support local stores AND limit our exposure. 
This doesn't mean we won't be exposed, or may have already been exposed.
It's not something that is entirely in our control.
For now, we are thankful for our health and provisions and remain positive!

The memes about COVID 19, the Coronavirus are endless.
This one, makes me chuckle.  Especially after that last post I made.

We have been intentional about our (small) dinners.
We are wanting to protect Grandma and Grandpa who are healthy but are considered
in the at risk population.

And the reality that our trip to Guatemala for Spring Break- that had been planned 
for months - had set in.
There was nothing left to do except figure out all the cancellation plans
and recoup of fees to the best of our abilities.
