Town just put in a Shelter in Place until May 4th. 

Gov. Wolf officially cancelled school for the rest of the year. My sister had her last day of grade school and didn't even know it at the time.

Man, where are you at? We've been doing this the last month already.

The US Dept. of Education made it official last Friday. School Districts across the country can cancel the remainder of the the 2019/2020 school year without penalty from federal funding sources. 

Education is a State and Local responsibility and Washington State Governor Jay Inslee has already canceled the remainder of this current school year. 

I am deeply concerned that many of my neighbors are unable to work from home. My job in King County School Finance is completely online and I have access to all my databases from my home office. But my neighbors are on uncertain terms and will have to make arrangements with the Tressa property management group.

This situation was first presented by Gov. Jay Inslee as a 90-day event. Now my community is faced with survival through the end of the year! While I have the protection of the Washington Education Association (WEA), the teacher's union, most of my neighbors have no fall-back for zero employment for the rest of 2020.

In my 63 years I never anticipated an event like this - this is a new reality for all of us.

Texas, took the county judge to do it.

I mentioned this to a friend, we have a new normal. The old one, gone for a while.

when you can't go anywhere because of the quarantine so you set up your own store at home

Well, we're starting to run low on hand soap. That's the one thing stores around here can't keep in stock, even worse than the toilet paper shortage.

Looks like I'm going to have to start washing my hands with some body soap.
