By 10AM today I've done four oil changes, a tire rotation and a recall, to the tune of $400 (including what Toyota pays me for the recall), on five cars.
On top of that, my rental manager spent the weekend with someone whose husband is presumptive positive. I just sent her home to go get tested and sit out the 14 days.
Needless to say, people are freaking the fuck out here.

I got some groceries.
Our trip to Iceland next Sunday is seemingly out.
Mulling over cancelling my Utah trip Sunday. I'd like to go somewhere besides here for a few days but it's likely a bad idea, could end up trapped there.
They scheduled a town hall tomorrow over Skype, I'm thinking they will announce company-wide WFH.
Fuck all this doom and gloom, I think I will go take an extended lunch and ride my bike in the woods a bit.

We cancelled Tennessee next week and instead are going to hit some national parks in Ca, like Joshua Tree and Sequoia.. Also going to go back and likely lay a deposit down and setup an appointment to change the plans on a custom house in Utah that we want to have built. We went out to the area about a month ago and love it.D Griff wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 1:24 pm I got some groceries.

You can tell us about it, if you want to talk about it. If not, no worries.
