I used my old cloth diapers until they also gave out. My youngest is 49, but they lasted a long time.I remember my mom using my dad's old underwear (the cotton tighy whiteys) as rags growing up! We would laugh.

I am so sorry. Anyone said anything about testing the rest of the tenants?Just heard of 2 more deaths, in tenants; at the hospital. That means in less than a week, 6 deaths. I knew 2 of them.

Do you think so? Unless things have changed since yesterday that really surprises me...Involving the police in social distancing has made a difference here in the UK:
Coronavirus: UK measures 'making a difference'
why dont you buy hand towels from walmart? or the yellow absorbant towels that are used for the floor. you can use them for floor clean ups, rinse them out really well and toss in the washer.@artiemom - Lots of hugs to you. This is so difficult to go through, and you have it bad.
I get anxious myself. So many items I can't get in grocery stores or online. I spent most of today figuring out substitutes for things - kleenex for toilet paper, bath soap for hand soap, paper towels for napkins. I don't know what I will do if I run out of paper towels. Mingo threw up today, and I had to use several of my precious paper towels to clean up the mess. I guess I could go to cloth napkins if I have to.
It's taken several days to get in enough cat food for a few weeks. Mingo is allergic to fish and gets crystals if he isn't fed wet food. I found one box of FF at a local grocery and ordered online from Chewy and Amazon. The Chewy order won't come in for weeks, but Amazon is coming sooner than expected. That's at least one relief.
I won't go out again unless it's a matter of life or death, which it is anyway.
Never been through something like this so everyone is just confused. This is my second job, so i dont really know what companies can/cant do. Which is why i like to search up info when things like this happen.Assuming this isn't just some April fools joke that someone who doesn't get how they work let out early.....
No they can't just stop paying you as that would be illegal and would cause them no end of trouble, but they could do layoffs.That's not all bad though, as Keika pointed out you'd be able to collect unemployment and unless you were terrible at your job you'll probably have the option to be re-hired when they open up again.
That's what I was planning to do with dish towels as I have plenty, but a neighbor came to the rescue. She just found a package of 12 tolls of paper towels at Jewel and shared two rolls with me. This is one good thing that's come from the virus. She has lived across the street from me for 16 years, but we've never met. She and two other neighbors have come over and asked me if there was anything they could get for me. With the warmer weather coming, it's nice to go outside and talk to people. No reason not to as long as we stand 6 feet apart.why dont you buy hand towels from walmart? or the yellow absorbant towels that are used for the floor. you can use them for floor clean ups, rinse them out really well and toss in the washer.
thats awesome! my mom always made the effort to get along with neighbors like that. Said her neighbor in cuba saved her and her daughter from a fire. I dont think getting along with neighbors is that common anymore for the younger generation.That's what I was planning to do with dish towels as I have plenty, but a neighbor came to the rescue.

Ive been using cctalk, classin and zoom. All of these have english versions. I like cctalk the most so far- you can record the classes and the video stays on the server. Classin lags too much and is unstable. Zoom is ok for small classes or meetingsKorean school is going online. High schoolers start next week, middle schoolers the week after, and elementary schoolers the week after that. There is no plan however, as to how they are supposed to do it. Each school has to figure it out for themselves. The government just kind of said that's what's going to happen. Despite being a technologically advanced country, a majority of Korean websites still run off of Internet Explorer. Although teaching is mostly lecture style, which makes it easier (I guess), I'm pretty sure Korean classrooms do not utilize any of the digital tools that schools in the states are using. There's not much of a homeschooling culture here either, so not sure how much "do-it-yourself" material is available in Korean. As for P and K kids, they are just staying out of school until they can be back in the classroom--which they are now aiming for the end of April.
We're not sure what that means for us yet. Our boss is adding tasks (writing guidebook materials, making new PPTs) to the teachers to make sure that they are using their time fully, which at least suggests to me that she is nowhere near laying folks off from the foreign staff. She has the Korean teachers alternating their days, while admin and my department, R&D, are in every day at our regular hours. I really wouldn't mind having my hours reduced. I'm relatively comfortable and with student loan payments frozen until September, I'm not worried about running out of cash, at the moment, but because the situation is always changing, I'm not going to be the one to fall on that sword unnecessarily.
Construction, etc., are "essential" activities and they're continuing uninterrupted. Don't think they're upping the pace, but I talked to a road work dude who allowed that is was sure nice not to have to worry about SUVs crashing through the barriers and hitting his jobsites as much.Wow! The city employees should take advantage of the emptiness to get some construction/maintenance projects done.
Someone in the town I work in tested positive. I haven't had contact with him personally but I have seen his mom :/. They're all on quarantine now.
My parents both had a fairly mild "cold" over the last couple of weeks. My dad was in New Orleans the end of February so it would have been within the incubation period when he started showing symptoms. Honestly I hope that was COVID-19 so I don't have to worry about them anymore. I wish they were doing titer testing to see who's had it already.
