That it. Had a pretty good thunderstorm this morning and everything is soaking wet in my gym. Still light rain and much cooler than the last few days.
I am becoming increasingly concerned about the current situation/ apocalypse. None of my ederly people are taking this seriously. They all say it’s bullshit. I can’t get them to stay home! They are still eating take out and going to the stores. I live in a tiny town and no ine has tested positive but I wish they would limit their outings.
It ain’t pretty but it gets the job done! If you were close I could hook you up with some equipment!
I’m having a hard time understanding the panic, but I’m trying to convince myself that it’s because I’ve never experienced anything like this. The predictions for deaths are pretty awful.
I have read so much shit I don’t even know what to think at this point. One part of me says these old dudes have seen it all and are not worried. The other says they ain’t seen anything like this. Basically I just want to stay home until it’s over
I am prone to anxiety on a good day.
Iceland has been aggressively testing people. HALF of the people testing positive have zero symptoms. They will probably be fine. However, how many people that won’t be fine get infected by people that don’t realize they’re carriers? Italy has around 500 deaths a day right now. A month ago it was no big deal and no one took it seriously.
I know it’s coming. I think I just can’t wrap my head around it because nothing like this has ever happened in the US during my life.
Old people can be so VERY stubborn! You can only do your best by staying healthy yourself and if you have to interact with them to be clean and for sure do not risk your health or your family’s if a wild old lady decides to be brazen and ignore public health and safety- not just their own but the PUBLIC’s.
You can’t control everyone, only yourself! Which I know you know of courses. For me its powerful to control what you can smartly and without
panic and push the stuff you have zero control over to the last line on your list of things you worry about and focus on what you can do instead.
You are a stead fast lady, I have no doubts you can survive hard times by being harder. …You also have a HOME GYM!
For real. Last I looked the death toll was about 5. I looked earlier today and it’s over 10,000 dead already.
It’s the real deal, I think last time the world looked at something similar was more the 100 years ago (EDIT 1918), at least in europe it was called the Spanish disease, very similar to Covid19.
Claiming 50 million dead 14000 in Denmark alone, at that time the population in Denmark was about 3,5 million (a guess).
In Italy they where too slow and regions sees the death toll rising by the minute.
Sorry for the rant CL, take care, try to teach the elderly that it’s not about them in person, it’s about the country’s interest.
The two of us have a home gym so we are home free, when this is over, we’ll be the strongest people on TN.

Meh… not feeling the love today. Went out on weeded my asparagus, strawberries, and onions, what the deer didn’t eat. Now I am going to plant some more. Somebody should them we are in a crisis and I love deer meat!
About to go foraging for a little more food. Called the mom and pop store and already got pissed off. It’s gonna take some really happy music to get me through this today. Utterly disgusted with the way this is being handled. It’s easier to price gouge if there’s no a public price. Just saying.
Day 22 phase 2
Wu… I was plenty warm when I got back from town.
DL
5x1/165
Some ring push ups
Some chin ups
Too late in the evening for me. Didn’t want to jack myself so I wouldn’t sleep.
Thoroughly disgusted with my trip to town. NOBODY here must know how far away six feet is. Bread that was 99 cents last week was $2.59 today.
And the exact ground beef I bought 7days ago for $25 miraculously was $40 today. Hmmm… he said his supplier went up on him. I can see the supplier going some but 40% ? I highly doubt it! Too bad, I really liked shopping there, but…
Got told by some old lady in the Dollar Store if we die drom this it’s just God’s will. The new cashier was seemingly unconcerned about the virus because he introduced himself and proceeded to shake hands, I passed. That in turn made me question every product I bought there, because… does he even wash his hands if he is not taking this seriously?
The entire ordeal was anxiety inducing.
I spent over four hours at a small supermarket and it was business as usual. No one seems to care about the grocery store.
On the bright side, it appears that the crimes on which I do follow up dropped over the weekend.
