It's in a town not far from us, but not mine. DD's university is about 30-45 minutes away. There's a lag in the university getting results, which I think is attributed to both the time it takes to process the tests and also if the kids don't pass that info. on to the college right away the college has to rely on getting the information from the health department, which can also take a few days. From Monday to Wednesday they had 50 new cases. They will update again tonight, so we'll see.
I think they should just send the kids home in DD's uni. Wednesday's numbers had 38 isolating in the dorms and 165 in off campus housing. The rest went home to quarantine. They had initially set aside 72 dorm rooms for quarantine, but with 38 students on Wednesday, those 72 rooms don't seem like enough. We'll see how the numbers are later.
DD will be in virtual class at 9am too.
Here we can tell tourists when they try to figure out the round-abouts or squares. We don't have many, but they always go slow trying to figure it out. Sometimes they trip me up too though!
I started to fall asleep in 1 OT, but my dd told me they won later. She was watching with her boyfriend who is a big fan. I'll probably watch tomorrow night.
We only got some light sprinkles. It's a little wet now, and gloomy out. DD is in "class" right now and we're going to Sam's later. Maybe lunch outside at CoreLife, if it's not rainy. I still can't bring myself to eat indoors yet.
Have a good day and weekend everyone!
Roundabouts are easy peasy for us....our whole country is built around them it seems!!! You can`t go any distance at all for them, doubles and triples too......so driving in America is so easy for us. Even doing a roundabout the wrong way is easy........I did drive in Long Island.....beautiful place but my goodness the roads are bad and in need of resurfacing.
I have to admit, we feel perfectly comfortable now eating in restaurants, I was wary initially but once I saw how procedures were being implemented, it was fine. It feels good to have a little normality with eating out. We haven`t yet just gone to the local pub for a drink, although we would as we`ve looked in and seen how they have separated everything out and it looks fine......
hope the numbers don`t keep rising....got to be worrying.....have a lovely weekend.
Elsa......I had quoted you but it`s gone.......no idea why.......yes, a new duvet is wonderful.....very snuggly....i did make some mor emuffins for tomorrow......bacon will be on the go from early hours......have a lovely weekend dong your DIY jobs....yes and extra day is nice!
Charade......you too.....not sure where my multi quotes went........but hope you have a lovely time at the zoo tomorrow.....
Made spicy honey pork tenderloin and added in a cranberry jalapeno compote tonight for dinner......change of plan from what we thought.....but it was delicious. Our butcher has some lovely local produce so we are spoiled for choice. But, it was lovely......made some parmentier potatoes and popped in a few carrots......dinner sorted.
Quiet night in again. Quite cool around 60F up till now.....about the same tomorrow.....sunshine but cooler.
I think we can start up our book group beginning of next month.....looks good for it, most of us have the room that we can sit far enough apart. We`re away the first week so it`ll be after that I think....but now need to choose and order the books for those that will come back, maybe around 12 so far. I look forward to it......
Think we`ll go a drive tomorrow morning......maybe along the coast or into the countryside.....will decide in the morning.......
Time for a glass of chardonnay.........I hear Tom rumbling around choosing one right now.....lush!
wonder why!!!
