    I lost my sense  of smell and taste earlier this week.
    Well that sucks.  Have you been tested? Waiting for results?
    No. I don't have fever so I'm just staying home.
    Hope you’re okay. I know how it is to be worried.  I don’t think I shared this, but on Tuesday I was trying to be good and stay home, was working on some projects I cut my hand pretty bad on a hole saw drill bit. So I spent 2-3 hours in urgent care getting 5 stitches and a tetanus shot.
    I began to freak out the next day when I began to develop a mild fever. After calling the doctor they said that’s normal after a tetanus shot. But I was still freaked out for about 24 hours until my temperature was normal. Mostly for my wife because she’s immunocompromised.
    And my arm still hurts from that stupid tetanus shot!

    Any Australians flying home from overseas are now moved to mandatory isolation in hotels in whichever city you fly to for 14 days and guarded by police and defence force. If you live in another state after those 14 days you are required to self isolate for another 14 days in your home state. If you leave the house you receive an on the spot $1000 fine for individuals or $5000 for businesses. This came in midnight last night. Anyone not self isolating before midnight last night will be tracked and receive fines which has already been happening as people think it's ok to go mingle after coming home from overseas. Too little too late after already letting thousands upon thousands in for months now

    Ordered out for the first time in weeks. Feels kind of normal.

    Had a video conference with the extended family today. We are spread out all over the country and had been planning a family reunion for early summer. Those plans are definitely on hold now. 

    My brother in laws business is ruined but no one has gotten sick, so we're all grateful for that.

    Looks great. I have been wanting to order pizza. What did you do with the box. Did you throw it out right away?

    OMG, STOP IT, McG!!!  :lol:  

    Just kidding, of course.  I'm just jealous because, despite the fact that I love food and there are very few things I don't like, unfortunately I do not digest cow's milk products of any kind and I have to avoid anything containing yeast... which means I am restricted from the foods I love the most... like the ones pictured above!

    Nevertheless, I say with all sincerity, Bon Appétit!

    Yeah we threw it out right away.  
    Curbside pick up.  You give them your model/make of car and they come out and put your order on a table.  
    Pizza was great. Coal fired.  About to sip some vino.

    To get back to the topic at hand

    We are now at just over 2,000 deaths due to the Novel Coronavirus.
    But it's no worse then the flu
    It doesn't really exist
    It's just a hoax
    It's all part of a leftist liberal Democrat plan to crash the booming economy and get rid of the wonderful president

    McCormick Place in Chicago, which is the largest convention center in the US, is being turned into a makeshift hospital. This is so surreal.

    It was really good!  No Lou’s tonight. 

    I can’t believe how so much of the country (and planet) is being engulfed by this virus so rapidly. Local hospitals are starting to make statements about protocol when they inevitably have to choose who gets the ventilators based on chance of survival.  This thing is relentless.

    It really seems more like we are just woefully unprepared.
