It’s Friday the 13th. Lock yourself inside. Hide. The world is under attack of corona. Not the beer, the virus.
Pause the youth sports activities, indefinitely. Talk about dealing with sad kids. As a coach this is uncharted territory, to see seasons cancelled. This is an emotional change for kids and most coaches are not prepared to guide their athletes.
Resume school via digital learning. Locking the kids up at home. I can juggle but what about parents with kids who can’t. Panic will set in. Sheer panic.
What about the people who rely on food pantries. Will people forgot to make donations? Those kids may not get the free lunch they are used to at school. Digital saves one problem but creates another. Creative solutions in some places bring hope. If kids can’t take the bus to school for lunch, the bus will bring the lunch to them.
Postpone group meetings, team picnic, conference and various other events with multiple people. People still need to work. How will commerce keep moving? How will people meet their contract deliverables if commerce is halted?
Pray for all the college students abroad on spring break that may be stuck for a while outside the US. Think about the emotional state of coming back from spring break to be told to remove your belongings immediately from dorms. This is happening!
Cancel spring break flights stateside. Or maybe not. Some will take advantage of cheap flights to escape the madness. The tourism industry is going to take a hit.
Don’t dip your hands in the chalk bucket at the gym. You might catch something…
Just hit pause on life.
Check in on friends quarantined from cruise. 14 days in a barracks at 80 years old. Wow just wow.
Watch the news or not.
Write a blog about the chaos and hysteria.
Buy toilet paper if there is any left.
Why isn’t there a soap shortage?
Shouldn’t we be washing our hands?
Listen to people thrust their opinions on you of why we are in the state of hysteria relating to coronavirus.
Go wash hands again.
Find new shows to watch on Netflix.
Answer stupid text questions from people who appear to live under a rock.
Continue living in a bubble.
Try to stay positive about the economy.
Shop online and hope FedEx still delivers.
Clean the house.
Wash hands again.
Pray for all my fellow small business owners who will suffer because of this craziness we are living in.
A big thank to the humorists in my life….
