    So far, the Mirage is doing good. Did an oil change in early April before The Battles of TP, so at least it wasn't too bad.

    Currently, in Minnesota, we're still on a Stay-At-Home Order. Which I totally understand. There are some places that are slowly opening. But I just read that our 'social distancing' report card went from a 'A' to 'D' . It is pretty outrageous to see people NOT wearing masks and gloves at the grocery stores. Blows my mind that people aren't wearing, at the least, just masks. Wife and I try not to go out to stores and such but it's hard to when most deliveries are 1-2 weeks out.

    Overall, I guess I've been practicing social distancing all my life lol. I do miss hanging out my car buddies but there are also weekly cruises and weekly birthday drivebys while practicing social distancing. Other than that, I really hope everyone else is doing good and not going super crazy about 5G and fake news stuff lol
    l'd love to work from home, but l work at a factory. That's why l am going into IT and bc l really love helping people...bc of Covid-19 l have classes online and ln the states things are opening back up...Parks in Ohio are packed with people...there will always be people who go against orders can't wait to get done with Covid-19 and College...been going to Lakeland for 5 years bc of working full-time and sooo want to be over with school. Hope everyone is doing well.

    Things are picking back up here pretty fast too. My work slowed down slightly a few months ago and picked right back up in the last 2 weeks busier than before it seems. Traffic is almost back to normal but not as bad since schools are closed here until September at the earliest? Provincial campgrounds are opening back up with 50 percent capacity I believe, the reduced the 75% of the province fireban here to a restriction so that's a bonus. We were never forced to stay home but the majority of people have been for the most part and things are looking better. Still being optimistically cautious I guess. That could change any day...

    As for working from home, I thought it'd be great and was jealous of those who were able to. The wife has been working from home for a few months now. But also having to teach our 3 kids that are in elementary school and submit work online and have google meetings with teachers etc..........She cannot wait to get back to working in her office at work and I don't blame her! She's got bigger balls than I. But most of you already knew that since I have a cvt Mirage.
