I agree with the getting more exercise thing. I need to do that as well. I think June might be a little better because the kids are supposed to be able to go back to karate then. I had one of my kids in swimming lessons. I don't know if those will resume in June.

Anyhow, another layer of this is my disappointment in my oldest child not receiving the standard high school graduation due to the way the government has reacted. That is something that parents look forward to and they just made it all suck. The older folks complain so much about the kids, but they are very disconnected from them. They don't realize that kids like my son don't get to have any of the fun things being in high school used to be about. I went to so many parties in the 90's. Back then, when you got your license you could drive your other high school friends places (parties). With my son, the law is he can't drive anyone under 21 with the exception of family. That sucks. They did that to reduce driving accidents among the new drivers, but the cost is not having all those great times in high school. Now he doesn't even get a graduation. Whatever I guess.

The governor is allowing groups of up to 10 people, so really people could be socializing now, but they made people so scared. It is hard to find people who are willing to actually meet up. If the government overreacts, the people overreact. Really, if you aren't coughing and sneezing all over someone and getting up in their personal space, you aren't going to give them anything. I'm sick of everyone treating each other like we're all just a bunch of disease spreaders instead of people. This is incredibly dysfunctional.

The government had the hospitals in my area only handling emergencies. Same for the dentists. As if they were expecting massive amounts of people to need hospitalization for corona virus. Well, the hospitals have nothing going on in my area to the point that they are laying people off. They still aren't letting the dentists do their regular procedures, but they let the hair salons open. The whole thing makes no sense. And yeah, people are suffering from other health problems and they haven't been able to get treatment for it because of this. The only thing that seems to matter any more is corona virus.

I'm also a little pissed this morning reading that Fauci suggested that the schools might not be able to reopen in the fall. F*** off dude. My elementary school aged child needs to go to school. This whole "homeschooling" while I am trying to "work" thing is not working and I know my kid is not learning like he should be. He is just doing self directed activities on a computer. We CANNOT do this again next school year or ever again. Shutting down the schools for this long was bad. If this continues we are really screwing over Gen Z. All the information out there has consistently said that children are at the lowest risk for severe symptoms.

These people that run the show ought to be able to figure out a way to protect the old people without punishing the young people. We shouldn't all isolate. Things are starting to fall apart. Products are becoming hard to find in stores. People need to get back to living normally or we're going to have way more problems than we do now.
