The Hallmark and Lifetime thing is just their cover story.
I suspect that is true but I'd rather take the chance that my immune system fares better with the virus that it does with being inundated in soap operas and chick flicks.
As blasphemous as it sounds we've actually had a good time with all this. It's the first time since I turned 16 that I've been home for an extended period of time with family. It's been rough on a lot of people and I don't want to minimize that but it's been kind of a vacation for us. The gym where my wife works has been closed and my daughter's critter sitting business has been wiped out by everyone staying at home with their critters as they should anyway so we're all together when I get home. We never cooked before now and I'm actually going to bed early for the first time in my entire life. There's food in the house for the first time since I left my parents home. For the first time in over 20 years I'm unconcerned with preparing for qs video shooting season as well. My daughter broke up with her boyfriend (He was a good kid) so I don't have to deal with him either. Sad that it has taken such a calamity to enforce some "normal" on life. Speaking for just me, wife, daughter, and dog, it's really been pretty nice. I won't complain when it's over though.
