You do very well in keeping distances. Here too, there are still people at the supermarkets who don’t have the patience to wait for you to finish to take things from a stand. I have been all the time taking care of distancing myself enough from each person.

My president today enlarged the confinement until the end of April. So, wow! I can’t even guess how we are gonna cope with this situation for so long.

The behaviours by my female doggie I attributed to a change because of the confinement ends up with taking her to emergency and she has just had a surgery made. According to the doctor she will be fine soon.

When going to emergency, all streets were empty. It was impressive.
The beautiful Spring sunshine over empty streets.

Yes but you can't control the people around you.

Scared again today. I've been having a sore throat on and off for over 2,5 weeks now. Occasional cough as well. Could be just allergies. No fever or anything. Usually breathing just find. I do get out of breath faster but then I've been mostly sitting at home for three weeks so I'm terribly out of shape.
I just wish I could get some kind of certainty.

I thought she'd already recovered from it.

I'm having the same issue. Juniper allergies are terrible here right now, and I have a cough and sore throat that won't stop. The medication I'm taking is doing nothing to help. But it's been this way for weeks and I have no fever, so logically I know that it's allergies. It's just hard when you hear that these are also symptoms of the virus.

Just take care of yourself and remember that it's peak allergy season.

Thank you for your words. Very kind of you and yes, they are doing the right thing. At least the percentage of contagions is decreasing.

I understand how hard time people with allergies may have thinking about if their symptoms are due to allergies or corona virus.
Even when you know that if the symptoms are not constant, it’s allergy. Thanks god, the confinement prevent you from feeling allergy symptoms so badly as other years.

My cat's vaccines are due this month. But I just got an email from my vet and they are postponing annual vaccines. Don't know for how long. I guess I can call and see and make sure my cat will be safe. She's an indoor cat. So I'm sure that helps. Also, the news has made me very anxious today. The CDC lady was saying stay in... don't even grocery shop or go to the pharmacy. Things are supposed to get much worse over the next few days. I'm glad I have everything I need for now. Stay safe, everyone!

How is everyone doing?

I had a few okay days but my anxiety seems to be going up again Sore throat also back after being gone for two days.

The sunshine helps. I went for a short walk yesterday morning and life almost felt normal again. Although there's also a worry nagging at the back of my mind that the sunshine makes people more careless. And yesterday afternoon I was very bored and grumpy being stuck at home. Really wished I had a balcony. But that happens every spring/summer

The sun definitely helps. We're so fortunate to have a governor that did his job and took action right away. So at this point we're holding our own in California. Hopefully that will maintain. I want sun and warm weather because I believe it will help to kick this things as$.

We are beginning to glimpse some good news. At least we reached that zone where the curve is stabilised. Now, the next challenge is to bend it down.
After so many days, it helps to see some positivity and gives some kind of hope to see that the sacrifice is being worthy.

I’m tired of course, we can’t get out even for a walk. But, at home everyone is healthy since my doggie is recovering from the surgery, so this is a motive itself to be grateful.

It’s been talked about the hot weather...how the virus could have less strength. Hope, it happens this way. I want it to burn in the same hell!

Want to go to the mall, visit my mom, buy what I want at the grocery store, take a walk in the park, go on a date, travel by plane, train or car to wherever I want, but I’m not due to want to help reduce spreading the virus to others.

Feel bad that businesses are struggling so want to help them and get back to the mall, driving to see family, shop more at the grocery store, travel by plane, car, train, and not necessarily cruise ship unless a smaller ship as not enthusiastic about a large cruise ship with too many people even when there isn’t a virus going around.

Guess the confinement now, after a long hard winter it’s being there very stressing.
At least, you took measures just in time, we ingenuously waited until things got really messed.

I have a doctor's appointment today. I asked about the protocol. When I get there, I'll check in over the phone. Then wait in my car until my room is ready. I'm glad. I won't have to wait around others.

So, we are already two, today, not doing a good job of distracting. This long confinement will be longer than I thought and I’m pretty bothered by the picture the government, mass media are doing of it all. I mean, there are lots of phrases of encouragement, how wonderful people can spend their time at home, how wonderful we are all doing everything...meanwhile there are more than seven hundred people dying each day. So, I’m beginning to feel pretty upset with so much non-senses and not wanting to see the reality.

Yesterday, I saw a Chinese guy on TV who went to Wuhan (the city where the epidemic began, I don’t know how to say it in English or in Chinese. It’s called like that in Spanish). Well, the guy went to visit his parents to Wuhan to celebrate Chinese New Year. He has spend seventish days there without being able to travel back home.
I’m counting and still a month or more for me.
