    If you are home right now or at all as a result of this, if you have any down time and are not immune deficient at all this might be an opportunity to minister to your neighbors. Maybe you could run some erreands for those who are seasoned citizens or immune deficient for some reason. Maybe some work around the outside of the house. Anything to be a help to them. Just a suggestion.

    If everyone would stay home for 14 days it would be over. People just cant keep their rear ends at home. We have too many grass hoppers and too few ants in this nation.

    No one can just completely stay home for 14 days. Folks need groceries and there are needs that have to be met. Maybe even prescriptions filled and picked up.

    And many jobs don't offer work-from-home options. Many employers that do not cease operations are requiring their workers to report for duty. That means someone in that situation is going to have little choice. It's not like there is an abundance of other jobs available in this economic freeze.

    That being said, we do have a lot of people who are needlessly out and about. If it's not an essential trip, skip it.
