Nevada March BS Thread

Good morning and welcome to March. Happy birthday to those with a birthday this month.
I started two new jobs close to home and have been making good impressions with the bosses apparently because both employers are asking if I want to work more hours. Other than that, there's nothing new to report other than my Mazda is on the road now although it still needs a few minor adjustments. I hope everyone has a great month and stays healthy considering the new virus that recently hit the US.

Good morning FTE. TGIF!
I guess with it being tax season everyone's busy trying to get their taxes done. I hope the IRS treats everyone with a great amount of prosperity.
Have a great weekend

Afternoon everyone.

Pat, I can't wait to see some work get done on the truck this season. You didn't seem to get much time for it last season.

Good morning everyone

I hope this finds everyone safe and free of the Coronavirus. With all of the new recommendations & regulations from the governor, Etc. I hope that we all can get through this in one piece and hopefully it'll be sooner than later!
QOTD...
How has the Coronavirus affected your life?
I got laid off from one part-time job, Jimmy may lose his job or be laid off, and since we did not panic and freak out buying things at the store, we are currently regretting not buying the necessities in bulk when it was available.
Karl & Kaedon are/were supposed to be coming down from Wyoming the 24th - 29th to pick up and move the rest of her things. However, I do not see that happening at this time until all this BS is over with. Karl is in the Air Force National Guard in Cheyenne Wyoming and his Base Commander put a 30 miles from within the state line travel restriction for everyone enlisted almost two weeks ago. (Unless the Commander gives permission otherwise)
As of last night's report from Nevada's governor, I don't foresee my son and daughter coming here until our government better understands the Coronavirus and has found a vaccine and/or cure for it.
We all know the personal safety precautions that we should be taking, however when we cannot find Lysol disinfectant as one of the recommended necessary precautions... being a EMT, I personally use & recommend a 1/2 water 1/2 bleach solution (OR Peroxide ** DO NOT MIX BLEACH WITH PEROXIDE**) to clean, disinfect and sanitize. Also, use rubbing alcohol with soap during hand washing.
although we may not be worried about ourselves, think of your personal safety this way... Think of the saying- it's not about your driving that I'm worried about, it's all the other idiots on the road.
Until next time, stay healthy and safe.

Hello Nevada Peeps!
I thought I had the virus but it turned out to be pneumonia! I don't know which is worse.
Still cold, 26 degrees at ten AM today. A lot of snow in March, up on the mountain.
I have not been driving my truck much at all... needs tires and I am not ready to put out the cash.
My life has not been much affected by the "stay home" requirement.
Hope you all are well and happy!

Donna, good to hear about your kids.
