My crew and I are essential also.  One of my crew's Mother is being monitored and waiting on her test results so our whole Operations center (data center) could very well be under quarantined in a few days.  Want to watch a state data center go into chaos???  Have the essential, least paid employees not be able to come to work.  My stress level quadrupled last night after that call.

Our state had a confirmed case finally this week, with a second one the next day.  The wife of the 1st case told how it took them many days to even get a test done and she is also having symptoms.   I'd say our state is contaminated but no kits because we are a low population, of mostly elderly, and not important enough.  

DSO brought SS20 to our house right at the time things really got out of control so I'm stuck as my 88yo Mother is in cancer remission so I can't go stay with her, or anyone right now.   Of course Asshole has a great excuse to not look for a job but Daddddeeee still carts him to peoples house and the Asshole is around who knows who and where.  I laid down the law this morning.   I said that this scare from work is enough for me.  Either ASshole stays at our house or stays wherever he is spending a night or I'll live at work if need be.   Being quarantined at work has honestly come up so we can keep the states network going and help all the online instructors and students.

Stay safe and bunker down.

I'm on paid leave for my day job while kids are out. We're on day 5 of Homeschool technically because I kept both SS8 and BS4 home from school knowing they would call it by mid day. And they did. Within the hour BM wanted to switch to the Summer schedule and DH had to shut that down. We go back to court in May and family court seems to be still rolling although most other official offices are closed until mid April. I find homeschooling to be a lot like our Summers where we do educational stuff for a few hours then outside entertainment for the majority of the day--essential for ADHD kids. We started our own garden but the boys chose mostly fruits and flowers they liked. I got two veggies in the small plot. Our area doesn't have enough kits for everyone and are denied them unless you are part of the groups most likely to die (old or autoimmune). SS has a cough. He's had it for since BMs weekend before last. He coughed all week and by Friday it wasn't any better so we did an EVisit. The nurse just said cough medicine and rest. Of course he went to BM's who took him out for ice cream, to Walmart, to find GS cookies so he returned Sunday with a cough just as bad. I think it's finally shaking lose but he'll be leaving again tomorrow so ya know- 1 step forward, 2 steps back kind of progress I guess. Overall not too bad. Not yet but I figure it's coming.
