Pandemic Update!

Hi, everybody! Just wanted to drop by and tell you all that I'm fine, Kevin and the teenager and I are sheltering in place and not going out for anything but absolute essentials. Our buddy Shepherd is here too, which is nice because she can do a lot of scratch cooking. (Me, I'm working in the garden a lot.)

Everything's pretty messed up out there, but we're all healthy so far and trying to our part to flatten the curve. Schools are closed and the governor just ordered all bars and restaurants to shut down for anything but takeout. I'm worried for all my local business friends, but it's gotta be done. I'm doing daily check-in Twitter threads for people, so if you're out that way and don't follow me yet, I'm ursulav over there.

World got a lot stranger this year. Take care of yourselves.

Good luck everyone & stay healthy!

In New Zealand here, where we just had our 20th case confirmed. All of them able to be linked to recent arrivals from overseas (or their family members). We're doing our best to keep the numbers down, but people are worried.

We live in interesting times (and not in a good way)
