Roll Call?

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

I'll admit to being curious about how it's going for everyone, whether or not we're still having visitors, people checking to see what's being posted.  I can look at the stats and see numbers and the 'anonymous' lurkers, but I wonder how many are willing to just tick the heart icon to say you were here.

I'd expect that in these times, the internet activity is increased because of the stay at home orders we've mostly received.  Kentucky isn't on a severe lockdown, but we started early with following the recommendations and have kept our number of cases fairly low, thankfully.  Of course the landlocked states have fared the best in all of this, as opposed to the coastal states that have a steady stream of people due to shipping, tourism and any number of reasons for landing there.

Here on Section VII it would be nice to know how you're doing.  Some post on a regular basis, so we're accounted for.  Marian has moved and is in her new apartment, but she won't have internet for awhile.  I talk to her everyday, and can tell you that she's surrounded by boxes and still finishing up with the cleaning duties at the old apartment.  Kitties are all good, and the process of living in a new place has begun.

How about the rest of you, can you check in and let us know you're doing okay?  If you're willing, just respond in the comments.  Connecting is important, and I hope y'all will do that here.

Hello! Yes, Costa Rica is also in quarantine. There are no restrictions for people to go out shopping but stores are closing fast. Police is doing their best to keep drivers off the streets after 9pm, beaches and national parks are closed. Churches are closed too, Easter week celebrations are cancelled. Most workers are in paid leave but the tourist industry is suffering more than anyone else.
Hospitals are okay, so far are only 6 people in ICU and that's a remarkable positive number for a country of 5M.
I'm doing okay, at home with my sister and 90 year old father. He's very scared but hanging in there, since we're not freaking out. The house is big enough to keep our distance. There is a good backyard for our 9 dogs. We also shelter 28 cats but they're happy in the garden and their own apartment. Life goes on for our furry friends, so I haven't felt any cabin fever yet. As you can see, my sister and I are busy all day long with the normal routines. I go out occasionally to do the shopping, fortunately the main supermarkets are walking distance for me.
I keep myself informed about the situation in the world. As I said somewhere else, it's amazing that the same situation that has sent us away physically is also bringing us closer. Live long and prosper for us all and andrá tutto bene. Virtual hugs and kisses.

It's so good to hear from you, and to know that Costa Rica is faring better than most. I have read that the regions in the Southern Hemisphere have less cases, probably because of the warmer temperatures. I'm glad for you, and hope you're able to keep your lives as close to normal as possible.
Thank you for checking in to let us know your status.
