So are you self isolating yet? When will you start? Would you shop late at night when stores are not crowded?

[quote:lookin up:MV80MjkyMTAwXzc4MjA2NTE4X0QzQzIwNURG] I own and live in an adult family home (a private home that houses 6 elderly and vulnerable adult residents). I mass shopped since mid January seeing this thing as a possibility of reaching Washington state where I live because tons of people and Asians fly into Seattle from China daily. Since there were no serious measures to prevent the illness from coming where I live, I have supplies for our home to last us possibly 6 plus months withh b out having to leave the house. As soon as our local Whatcom County health Dept declares there is a confirmed case in my county, (which probably will be in the next day or two because there are 10 plus pending cases) we will not have anyone coming or going. Already all our residents have cancelled their appointments for the month of March. Our activities leaders have been let go until further notice. We have three live in staff counting me who can work round the clock without leaving the premises so I plan to let my one hourly pay caregiver go due to possible exposure to our residents since she will be working at a large skilled nursing facility. I hope this will keep us all safe under my roof. [/quote]

I'm debating what to do and not do. It is in all the states that border mine, and an hour north of me supposedly.
I run into local stores for milk and bananas sort of thing, but my major prepping is finished. I dont need to go to movies or malls. I want to go to church tomorrow, but one guy commutes pretty far to a city that has it, and two ladies work at local hospitals in cardiac units, so far no CV patients. I am thinking of going and sitting in the back foyer which has better social distancing.
Hubby is still planning to go to work part of the time for meetings, but not much else....the boss said people can work from home as much as possible. Nice guy.
I really want to do a final run to Trader Joe's. Not sure if that is too risky.
My d.i.l.s both work around people and I babysit, so maybe any attempt to self isolate is futile, and I need to just take my antiviral supplements and not even bother trying to self isolate.
So what about you? Are you self isolating, or thinking about it?
