Getting Outside

We walked up to the cathedral today to check out the garden and see the pretty things growing. We were sure to wear masks…and once again my husband has his on backwards. I’m sure he’ll learn soon. Very few other people had masks on. I think more people are going to need to wear masks to help others from getting the virus.

The new cases of the virus are going down a little. Only 29,000 new cases today.

Getting Worse

The virus is getting worse. There were more than 30,000 new cases today! That’s crazy. We are taking more and more precautions when we go out. We are trying not to go out too much. When we go to restaurants we eat outside. We are wearing masks every time we go out. We are wearing rubber gloves and masks when we go to the grocery store. My husband has his on backwards in the photo but he’s learning. I’m thinking of making my own masks. I can learn how to do it. Until then, we’ll use the medical masks we were able to get.

Pandemic

Today the World Health Organization declared COVID19 a pandemic. There were 372 new cases today. This is beginning to get scary. I hope it gets better before it gets worse.

D.C. declared a state of emergency today.

The National Cathedral and lots of other churches are closing for two weeks.

We aren’t supposed to shake hands anymore.

I’m worried.
