Vanish, what I wish Covid would do.

So sorry Joe, you're one of the many that it doesn't take much to catch something once one has had Covid unfortunately.
We skipped the grocery store this passed week before T-bird day and went today. Nice an quiet, sparse people wise. Not looking forward to the crowds between now and Xmas.

Someone should have informed the donald how thin his hair would become, especially doing a 2nd term.

These ICE agents, if they even are HS graduates are not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Just thugs the lot of them. No wonder they didn't want to "comment".

That sounds about right. This disposal society is part of the problem, isn't it? Now I'm suppose to feel sad for workers for not consuming when next year we'll be living on less? The 2.8% increase to SS barely covers the increase of gap insurance. My little pension got no increase. COLA my 👁️.

Yeah, that's what I miss. My mom (93.5) died in 2020 due to Covid. My family is Novid, still taking precautions, not something my sister's family does, so miss that we don't get to reminisce. TG use to be so fun. Thankfully we're a family of 4 adults, 2 Sr., 2 disabled, so we're not alone.

Just another reason, especially during winter, to mask around other people.

You sure he's not doing that and thus the cognitive decline? Aren't we lucky? Not. We need some new laws, no felons and no one over 70. I'm 71, so I'm not being agist just being sensible. Love your icons for him.

I wonder how many PG ladies are catching this and will have bad baby outcomes? Assuming this is rubella, though any virus while PG can be bad.

Joe, appreciated what you were doing for dinner. There are many alone & isolated doing their own thing to keep safe, helps to hear about others managing it on their own.
I'm thankful that we're a family of 4 isolators, we all believe in not bring this home or giving it to someone else.

I would so miss my senses. Can you smell the turkey (assuming you're having turkey, we're not, it is chicken)?

Sure seems to be working for Covid as well. At least HIV isn't airborne.

If one is elderly and gets stuck in a home or rehab, basically just count the days. In 2020 hospital kept my mom (93.5) safe for 5 days, rehab gave her Covid within 2-3 weeks. My sister got her out just before symptoms hit & then she tested positive. Now... no chance in heck, death sentence. 😭

I sure never thought I'd long for the days when McCarthy was the Speaker! 2026 can't some soon enough.

Btw, anxiety can be contagious... but usually it is anxious son giving it to anxious mom. 🤣 It ain't airborne.

How did you do, how did go? To my knowledge my family (4 adults living like lock down) hasn't had it.

Just did the doctor's today for son in KN95s. We were the only one's in waiting room. Taken right back and of course were asked if we're sick. No. We were there for son's anxiety, only to have mine kick in (bathroom emergency). Dr. suddenly had mask up as did one of the nurses on the desk. 🤷♀️

I can't wait as well. This whole admin is a nightmare. I just hope I can live long enough to see all these people fall on their flat/fat faces in the future! Hegseth better grow a beard to soften his fall.
