COVID-19

Covid-19, also known as the corona virus is in full swing here in Utah and the USA.  We have been asked to stay home as much as possible.  School has been dismissed for two weeks to help kids stay home to avoid the spread.
We were suppose to leave for California on Friday but they announced on Thursday that they would close Disneyland on Saturday. So we canceled our hotels and stayed home.  Which is good because I was feeling really uneasy about going with the virus spreading like it was.
You can no longer eat in restaurants (take out, drive thru, or curb side pickup only).  No movie, gyms, sports, dance, recreation places...they are all closed.  We've been asked to work from home if possible.  The economy is struggling and many people are loosing their jobs.
But grocery stores and open.  Hospitals and clinics are open.  Their is plenty of food at the stores.  Many people have been hoarding toilet paper and bottles of water.  But the water is good and clean.  Since I like to be super organized we were already pretty well stocked on supplies.
Even though for now things are temporarily closed we don't really know how long it is going to last.  My guess is much longer then two weeks.  The government is trying to slow the spread of the virus so that hospitals are not overwhelmed with sick people.
But out of all this crazy is good.  Max brought the kids some Mickey ice creams and popcycles for Tyler's birthday.  Our friend and neighbor (and fellow Disney lover) Kim brought the kids Mickey suckers, markers, and an art activity.  And my sweet 2nd councilor came and chalked our sidewalk with a sweet message.  Their is always good with the bad.  We are thankful for our blessings and will try to stay positive.
