I'm going to have to go outside the property lines, at some point.
I already have enough shit to deal with.

@KKGator There's always a good person in the line of fire. Be well. I'm guessing another two months.

And it won't be the rich people that die.

I know. That's where I am. It's been almost two months since I've left the property.
As much as I'm climbing the walls, I'm not going anywhere. Especially now.

By this time next month, there will be fewer to count in the census.

Seems to be true here as well. The co-op store only takes orders and people are supposed to pick them up in designated times. There is a large, slanted platform outside and all the clerks have masks. The local market now have shields between the clerks and customers and some have masks and some don't. The other day I wanted to check out an isle but saw the butcher talking to a customer (both sans masks and standing within the 6 foot zone) so I had to go down another aisle. The store has painted lines on the floor with messages to stand behind the lines when another is at the counter.

Thing is, we still only have the one case and she was from the outside who came here to hibernate but brought it with her. The other 2 islands, especially Orcas, have several more.

I actually have started wearing a mask and cap. It is pollen season and I do get affected. Don't want any pollen or virus in my hair (which is getting longer due to the closing of the barber shop).

@JackPedigo I hear on the pollen allergy season starting up. The yellow pine pollen will be bursting forth in the upper county, when I lived there (CleElum) everything would be covered in a thick coating of pollen. Down here in Ellensburg I don't get stuffy until the first hay cutting. I purchsed an electronic air cleaner, it has a sleep mode so it's pretty quiet for sleeping. What a HUGE difference when I wake in the morning. It's a VREMI.

@silverotter11 Good to hear. VREM I should look it up. I don't seem to have a problem inside. Also, Nettle pills are a natural anti-histamine and work well. Al I need to do is look at the windows on my truck to see the presence of pollen.
One funny issue I have with this is I have to shut off the rain pipes from the roof to the tanks. Pollen in the water tanks can cause problems.

While that's a lovely concept, I'd really rather not have some stupid moron's deliberate ignorance cause the illness and/or death of anyone I care about.
Especially mine.
