    Got an email from work last night. Going to be business as usual (or not since most everyone is working from home) until the city/county/state demands that non-essential businesses close. Once that happens we'll have 2 weeks of pay then nothing. No pay, no health insurance past the 2 week mark. We'll all be classified as laid off until this whole mess blows over. Hoping that our scattered population here helps to end this thing and we dont get to that point but if we do its going to be interesting. Financially I'll be fine, I have a decent amount of money stashed away. I was hoping to spend it on a camper but if I have to use it for living expenses I guess that'll do. Having no insurance worries me the most.

    Waiting to see how routine medical is going to go. I've got about 2 1/2 months worth of "maintenance meds" and will be due for labs. Waiting to see if they're going to reissue without the labs...not that mine change all that much but there may be people more critical.

    thats an option. but i know its expensive as hell. might ask if we have an option to keep our current policy if we pay the premium including what would have been paid for by my employer.

    exactly

    Hey Chief Mike. We keep getting little snows (light one now) but our temps are stable upper 20s at night into 30s during the day. Driveway is 33% clear thanks to daily melt off, thankful for that southern exposure. Backyard will likely be a swamp for a few weeks at some point during break up.

    other than my allergy shots I don't have any medical expense to speak of. and my shots will be wrapping up in May so....
    I'm just worried that if I do get sick or get in an accident I'm totally screwed.

    We stopped seeing anything that is not life threatening last week. And no visitors. Got a call Thursday that my blood tests next week have been cancelled.

    Some have said that it is a good idea to have a 90 day supply of all your meds on hand right now. Not saying that is official, but enough people have told me that I have placed orders for them yesterday. Having lost a lot of weight and changing my diet over the last couple of months would prefer that I have the lab work done first but not going to push it.

    Hey Baby Sister. Really hope you find an option to keep coverage. That's a stress you don't need.

    Whites will be ok because stored cold and not that old. Reds will just get smoother

    When I lived in SD they'd mail meds, over here they don't. Thinking that may change. We do get 90 days supplies but you can't re-up till the last week or so. We'll see. I'm sure this is all being taken into account.

    Kenny Rogers has dealt his last hand he passed away last night.



    I like maple syrup on scrapple. Sometimes.

    [​IMG]

    Get mine from a place where I grouse hunt. Grade B dark, has more flavor IMO.

    I also use it for the glaze on my pork belly burnt ends.

    [​IMG]

    And pure Maple Sugar for injections in place of regular sugar where it fits in like with pork

    [​IMG]

    The maple sugar is expensive as hell, but worth it to me.
