Spoiled Americans

Government leaders don’t agree

Some have tried to keep us safe by

asking us to stay at home.  Though

boring at times, it’s not that hard

Just Stay at Home!

 

Within six weeks law suits have

been filed against various leaders

for various reasons

“You took away our freedoms by

Not allowing us to meet in Church

Taking away our business

Releasing or not releasing prisoners

Making us wear masks . . . “

Idiots!  We’re in a pandemic similar to

the one in 1918.

What did we learn?  What did you learn?

 

Nasty words floating around social media

Two groups, one for staying home

staying safe

Another to open up.  Open all now. 

Without social distancing and

without masks and the government

gives in to their demands?

I've heard this compared to 

having a peeing section in a public

swimming pool.  Like those who choose  

to play it safe won't be affected by 

the stupid choices of others?

Just Stay at Home!

 

Americans definitely have a sense

of humor but not all share

in the outcome of political field.

Take our president of the

United States for example. 

Watch the Daily Social

Distancing Show with Trevor Noah

to see the humor and stupidity.

We seem to be a divided.

“The death tolls are wrong. 

There is no Covid.

There never was a Holocaust

or Titanic.  It’s all lies.  Eveything

is a lie”  Well, your references

certainly are

Just Stay at Home!

 

Joh currently has five

family members who have

the disease. 

Some fighting in the hospital. 

Some fighting at home.

They were careful but had

apparently come in contact

with those that were not.   

There are a lot of rebels and

idiots out there.  But I truly do

believe the greater amount

of people are being

cautious and staying at home.

 

The court houses were

closed for almost two months

and all cases were put on hold. 

I don’t imagine there will be

a rush on those lawsuits

brought up currently. 

I think by the time they do go

to trial, a good number of

those filing or hopping on the

band wagon will be deceased

or experience the sickness themselves. 

Just Stay at Home!

It Was Always Personal . . . Now Even More

            I was just thinking about the need for human touch and how many articles have been written on what a wonderful therapy the human touch is for mankind and how some are trying to distance themselves and wear masks while others refuse.  The stay-at-home/lockdown order is slowly being lifted. It’s supposed to take place in phases though I KNOW for a fact there are some people who are NOT following the guidelines.  There are those who have never followed the guidelines to begin with.  There are those that believe they are beneath it.  These people aren’t even looking for human touch.  They are inconvenienced – hey, we all are.  But some of us are wise enough to understand that the reason we wear masks and social distance aren’t because we are sheep being controlled by the government.  Some of us understand that good hygiene protects not only ourselves but those we come in contact with. 

 This morning I saw the following posts on my brothers wall quoting his husband on his own wall.  I asked if I could share it on my facebook page.  I decided I would share it to my blog as well.

 

My brother’s post on day 57 of quarantine:

 

“It’s sadly ironic that just as Nevada is starting to gradually reopen that COVID-19 is touchin us in a very real and scary way.

 

He quotes his husband:

 

 “Just as cities across the nation are reopening, we would like to share some difficult news from my family.  My mother and my brother are currently in the hospital with COVID-19 and my other brother and sister-in-law, who have also tested positive for COVID-19, are quarantined at home with symptoms.  Although [Corey] and I have not been exposed ourselves, we do have other members of the family who have been exposed, but we do not have the results of their tests at this time.  This is our reality and COVID-19 is very real.

 “Because there are many things not know about this virus we can be fearful of the unknown, but we can also choose to be hopeful.  Our hope is that all of my family members recover quickly and feel better soon.  We believe in the power of prayer and good thoughts.  We are asking that all of you who know us please pray for a swift recovery for all of our afflicted family members.  Please join us in this walk of faith because with great faith we move forward and we believe that with each day new miracles are born.  Keep believing in the power of faith, hope, and love.”

 

Corey:  “We do not know how this will turn out.  We are, of course, looking and praying towards a positive outcome.  Many have come out of this well.  But we also recognize that many haven’t.  We are choosing to be cautiously optimistic and ask you to continue to send us your thoughts, prayers, vibes, mojo, and whatever else you’ve got.  I do think it’s worth recognizing, though, that the virus is still her and right now it’s very personal.  Please continue to be safe and smart, everyone.  Please continue to follow health directives to the best of your abilities.  You are not only protecting yourself, but you may also be saving a life that isn’t your own.

 

I know Jenna yearns for human contact from others besides just mom and dad.  I do, too.  Especially when I know we are standing more than six feet apart.  I want to hug without rubber gloves and cellophane.  I want to reach out to others.  If the virus doesn’t kill us perhaps hate, stupidity, and carelessness will.
