Hello everyone

I am glad that everyone had a good Easter as much as they could with the circumstances.
We were home and I made a turkey dinner, we don't eat Pork anymore. The last few days I have been on the phone rearranging appointments. This is becoming a pain to do. I have several bi yearly preventitives that I do and all have been cancelled till further notice. I do have to go for my post op next week so I will ask a favor from this doctor if she can address some of my things. I think she will it falls under a lot of her practice.
The weather has been rainy now it is cold today. I can't wait for warm reliable weather. Although I can't plan my park adventures I have to come up with something. I listen to the news a lot and have been doing good with it all, taking it in stride. Yesterday when they were talking about possible social distancing of some sort till 2022 or a vaccine it really hit me, just how long and how much this will affect peoples lives. I am feeling a little down for a bit, then I will pick myself back up.
The teens are still working. Liv was asked to do cashiering while she was cleaning and said no. She gave her cashier shifts up and just kept cleaning ones. This seems to be going okay. She will hopefully not have a problem with management. Charlie is still doing his department. Brian is still woking from home. It's an "All in the Family" skit around here some days
Our govenor has a stay at home in place to May 20th but I am sure this will extend into June sometime. I am glad that he is working with the neighboring state governors to help open things up. I wish they would just cancel school the rest of the year instead of playing this update game every 4 weeks. I am sure they will not go back.
Charade I am glad that the insurance nightmare won't be as bad. The worse thing to have to do is go to work stressed knowing what you are in for. Nice on the stimulus check, We will probably use some for donations and maybe the deposit on Portofino for the fall. The rest I will hold onto in case our financial situation changes. Brian and I like the same shows so that works out good. We do have 2 TV's with a satelitte so that is nice. I hope your friend makes the mask soon. I am trying to get used to wearing it but haven't yet. I only go to the store a couple of times a week.
Keisha I love the impromptu pic and visit that was awesome! I also do love your orange kitty greet! I have one and he is one of my fav's. Orange tabby's tend to have a nice personality. Sorry to hear about the dusting and your plants. Brian and I are one of the homeowners funding Home Depot. I remember the counting days with Liv LOL!! I hope your tooth is doing better now! I might have missed a post.
Schumi That is such a great story about Capt Tom, we need more of those these days. The volunteering sounds great what a nice way to help and stay safe. you mentioning windows reminded me we have to do ours soon. Glad Kyle is able to work from home one less thing you have to worry about, and extra family time is a bonus. Your spicy noodle salad with chicken sounds good. Hope your weather stays nice for those walks. I need to start more soon. We started packing our games and I found my 80's trivial pursuit and *0's scene it game. I told Brian we are keeping them, I hope to find a group when we move who would enjoy the era.
Damo Congrats on the good news about the baby. In these times good news like that is awesome! It is such a personal choice to find out the sex. When I was pregnant I didn't want to find out but Brian did. When we went for the ultra sound that day she offered to write it for him so I wouldn't find out. Well it took me all of about 5 seconds to want to know. LOL!! I am glad that I did because I was convinced I was having a boy. I would have had a lot of returning to do.
Sue Nice score with Costco. We use it here and have pretty good luck except for the disinfecting stuff. We have certain products we buy from there so more limited. Brian has been hitting it just right and not waiting to get in. Your zoom party sounds nice, it's good that you can keep up with your friends. I know I was looking at pics of things this time last year and it is so different. I hope Disney and Universal open up in some way this summer. Getting taxes finished is always a good feeling.
Lynne I hear you on getting back into a regular routine will look forward to that very much. It's nice when everyone agrees on the meals, lately that has been diffucult here. The wildlife sounds nice in the back yard, we usually only get squirells and racoons. That was so cool about the fire department doing that. The only thing we saw here was a convoy of cars saluting the teachers of the elementary school behind my house. Ham was always tradition in my family for Easter I like having non traditional ones. Enjoy your tea and hope for warmer weather.
Cam glad that you had a quiet Easter but did a lot of cooking. Nice that you got to share it with your mom and FIL. I love dark chocolate dipped strawberries. Any type of pasta is my favorite. I hope you did okay with the storms, tornadoes can be so scary. We had some heavy rains and wind but nothing too bad. I hear you on the double chin I never had one till now, don't like it. I am not use to having to watch my weight. I need to get going on that. Good luck with yours.
Tink It was nice to see you post. How awesome you had the day off and had a nice family day. Bingo sounds fun, I love bingo! You can't go wrong with grilling. I hope you are feeling good!!
Pumpkin Glad that you had a nice day, your meal sounded good. When Liv was little Brian use to make bunny paw prints from the door into the living room. He used a sponge and chalk. It was great to see her face light up. I miss those days! Glad that your sons enjoyed Easter! There is nothing wrong with doing a little at work, Brian does double things like that all the time. Good luck with your school work.
DLPN That is cool that you are looking there in a few years. We are still hoping to go this year, will depend on the virus and the economy. We want to settle in the Orlando area but Tampa would be a back up, very nice there. More SANS in Florida will be cool!!
Rapstar We may see you on the road in the moving truck!!! We have been looking at houses in Orlando subrubs was so close till the pandemic, still hoping for this year. Congrats on the stimulus check, I used a portion for my September trip in case we don't move by then.
Bethany I know how you feel about planning things, I hope it all works out for your trip in the summer, the worse is telling the kids. That is good that you have not had the outbreaks like we did here. I hope it stays that way. I really think our location to NY played a part in our big numbers, I am hoping things settle down a little bit soon.
Mac It feels nice to do organizing and cleaning the rooms. Moving is forcing us to do it and it feels good. I hope you find what you lost. I hope Mr. Mac was able to get everything. LOL I had to laugh Brian does the same thing with the phone calls. I hope you are having good weather and staying safe!
K star I hope you and the family had a nice Easter and staying safe neighbor!!

I would like to give a special hello to Robo, Monykalyn, McRose Vicki and all the rest of the SANS family. I hope everyone stays healthy and safe.
