So I just want to kind of give update of what's going on in my world with the Corona virus in what's going on with Candies World with the coronavirus.

I live in Florida, in the Tampa Bay area in Candy Lives in California.

Um, about believe it's about 45 minutes from L.

But, um, you know, we're both being affected in different ways pretty much the same, but, you know, just kind of my record.

What experiences were both going through on different coasts of the country.

Um, as you know, this is a now a pandemic and has been declared a pandemic for about a week and 1/2 now and ever since has been declared that things have been going crazy.

Every day there's new information and new changes, new updates, new countries, you know, shutting down their borders.

It's pretty much so, you know, just last month I went Teoh Guatemala, and that's when you know, we just heard that China had this virus and Wuhan and the whole city was shut down.

And so at that time, I wasn't very concerned.

I wasn't thinking about going to Asia anytime soon, but I was thinking, Wow, it's Guatemala or all the way on the other side of the world.

There's no way it will come to you know, this side.

And I thought the other travelers felt the same way I did.

There's still a lot of people traveling at that time, and this guy next to me, I mean, he always he didn't care because he was coughing and see you think with this, you know, mouth open, not covering at all.

Which, by the way, even without a virus going around, you should always cover your mouth when you're sneezing or coughing.

It's just a general rule of thumb anyway.

I'm glad I went, because now traveling is on lock down pretty much.

And if you are traveling, it's not a great idea because you're at risk your, um, going even if you're young, you will pass the virus to some wells if you're exposed.

So I mean, there's all sorts of wrong with traveling right now.

Unfortunately, so candy was supposed to come visit me in April in a couple more weeks, and we're supposed to go to the grand came in and we're just last week or week and 1/2 ago, we were still gonna move forward with our plan because we didn't think in Florida and the Caribbean.

Things escalated really quickly after we discussed it.

And in the next couple of days, we finally decided, You know what?

Is that this Isn't gonna work is dangerous.

Hopefully we can go again, but not any time soon.

But it is the best thing to do right now.

Yeah, just wantedto give you an update on what it's like in Florida this week.

So my company just told everyone to work from home.

Starting this week on Monday was a lot of restaurants closing in Florida in the Tampa Bay area, they just don't have enough business.

So and plus one of them are mature works, which is pretty popular here in Tampa.

It's like open food hall area, so it's like a communal kind of I've.

So they had to shut it down, because now the CDC says that you have to stay six feet away from everybody.

Other restaurants are only having you order take out.

And today actually went to fresh kitchen, which is really great if you ever come in Tampa, Fresh kitchen is awesome.

They have free, healthy food and it tastes really good.

But they do have signs, too, that say that, you know, post the CDC guidelines rules, saying that Hey, just stay six feet away from each other, which we did.

I think everybody is respecting the rules and trying to be careful.

Um, they were functioning at the beginning of this week, and then they decided to close down all communal areas.

So the pool is closed, the fitness centers close business and are seeing a room, the dog park.

Then the very next day, they sent out an email saying that they're closing their offices, so they were gonna be around for us to go into the office and ask questions.

So if we have any questions or any maintenance work, we are supposed to call them and or email them grocery shop being it was a bit of a challenge because people are going nuts and just buying loads of everything.

Okay, so this morning, I'm checking out some grocery stores.

That's all I want because I think I have plenty of meat for now.

I know you know me is hard if I know too well, it's actually chicken, because when I went to Publix, they still had some bread pasta.

So I just got a couple of those are like one bloke with bread.

A lot of the vegetables were gone to for some reason.

And but there is a lot of pork, a lot of pork and beef.

I don't really pork anymore, But just in case and then, um, no eggs couldn't find the eggs.

So now my walmart to see if I could find eggs, but I don't really have high hopes.

So, success at Wal Mart, I was able to find chicken.

So thank you, Wal Mart, for having all that.

Oh, one thing I noticed was that other things air out to, like vegetable oil.

The flower section, like all the, um, bake goods are kind of gone.

I was kind of surprised with the vegetable oil that was gone.

I've been told that it is best to go in the mornings because they get deliveries in the mornings.

And I have noticed that some stores are opening of the supermarkets early an hour early for the elderly, which is great.

And they have started rationing as well, which they should have done a while ago.

So that that what I've been doing at home eso you know, been working obviously, because I have to work from home and my free time.

I, you know, usually take UMA on a lot of walks.

I take her out more often now, just because I need the exercise too.

And then I also started working out in my apartment.

So just watch some, you know, fitness videos with pops sugar TV muscle teaching Kuma some new tricks cat video where they're reading this bill.

So I thought I would, like, try that new trick with Kuchma, so Well, they eso you.

Oh, and you know, I am skyping more with my family in Japan.

So they you know how this virus for a while now, what longer than we have And so, you know, we can do some of the effects from it from them.

My youngest sister is still going toe work.

She works at a day care and my dad has retired, so he's staying at home.

But they need to be careful because they are elderly and the you to stay away from anybody that's carrying it.

It's just nice to, you know, catch up every week and talk to them.

All right, so that's it from my side of Florida.
