Re: Same here. I

Changing with the situation is pretty much all we can do. And yes, "life goes on" - except for the one person who now dies from COVID-19 every 30 seconds in this country... (I heard that yesterday and again today.) We're approaching the equivalent of a 9/11 death toll every day. And that doesn't yet reflect new infections that might have happened over Thanksgiving with all the travel and various types of gatherings. So it may get much worse through the rest of the winter.

I'm being very careful about who I work for and what assignments I take. I'm not working as much, but I make sure that what I do is worth it. We've been fortunate that the weather this week has been beautiful here, in the 70's, making outdoor signings still doable. However, our governor announced today that further restrictions may be coming (I don't have details yet), so I'm toying with cutting back even more, or taking another hiatus through the early part of next year, 'cause this weather won't last. Taking it day by day for now.

In my county (especially the southern part, where I live), the numbers have been pretty low compared to population, but I'm beginning to realize that instead of being an indicator of safety, it could just mean that the virus hasn't spiked here yet, like what we've seen in many central parts of the country. [Makes me wonder again why we haven't heard anything from CST in IA for quite a while...] Whether or not that ever happens here depends on how those who live here interpret that data and how they choose to behave. If people get Covid-19 fatigue and slack off, the risk could still skyrocket suddenly - at least until vaccines are widely distributed, which will likely be at least well into next year.

At least we now know that there IS a light at the end of the tunnel, so we just have to make sure we do whatever is necessary, like Marilynn said, "using all precautions", to get through the next several months.
