Post something good that happened today, Parts Two

[rock hound]

The picture that I posted of me with the kitten mask that Carla made for me is getting a lot of likes and positive comments from my friends there.  It's a lot more comfortable than the hardware store masks I was using at work or the ones that walmart tried to give me.

A friend of mine made more masks for HB for work. Grateful.

My brother stopped by to pick up some stuff for a job and we got to talk at a distance for awhile

The government has relaxed the people gathering rule from 2 people to 10 people.

Lack of Sleeping in = Sleeping earlier than my usual?

I always go to bed roughly between 9pm - 9:30pm. It's part of my routine.

How about you?

I get to sleep around 12:30am to about 1am at the latest (especially since I have to go to work in the morning)

I couldn't function the next day if I went to bed that late! But I'm old and you're a young 'un who can handle it.

We have a 50-people limit. We're all going to die.

Saw a graph prepared by USA's federal Center For Disease Control comparing the rate of infection per capita in states that have "closed down" as opposed to those states with no social distancing guidelines.
Approximately a two percent difference.
So, yeah, we're all going to die.

I would have to get all dark and twisty to refer to this as good.

All of our restrictions are still in place. The province released the approach they will use when it comes to opening the province back up and what that could look like but said we're still not close to be able to do it yet. Although I've noticed that a week ago our rate of daily new cases (just in Ontario) was 8.7% and now it's down to 2.9%. But on the flip side, the daily deaths that were at 3.2% are now up to 6% increases a day but that was to be expected.

We've got twice the mortality rate of our neighbouring countries and yet the government seems to think their strategy is OK.

And I just realised this doesn't fit the topic of this thread.

Although on a serious note, I looked at a graph the other idea on the amount of deaths your country was having compared to your neighbours who put restrictions in place. You had a massive spike in comparison.

The theory is that everyone else will have those deaths later, plus that they failed to properly take care of the elderly.

Also known as "we fucked up."

We had a slight easing in restrictions here. Apparently people are now allowed TWO visitors at home instead of one. Wowee!
And I heard about some shops opening back up.

I ran into that same dilemmma with my last post.

I2 in a nutshell.

[rock hound]

Took a nice walk and listened to nature, as well as the occasional sounds of gunfire coming from a shooting range nearby.  But, probably somebody going a bit stir crazy as well and getting outside while they can.  Since another big storm system is heading our way.....AGAIN.
