Last night the Hubs and I watched the 1995 Dustin Hoffman classic, Outbreak. Ya know, the one where Patrick Dempsey brings the Motaba-infected monkey to America and unwittingly begins an epidemic. Ah…Nothing like putting the kids to bed early just to eat popcorn and freak ourselves the eff out during Corona-Isolation…Romance at its finest.

Already In Need Of Supplies
We ran out of dog food today. I shopped at Giant Eagle last Friday and bought enough Spaghettios and Twinkies to last a lifetime but I forgot the freaking dog food.

Coronavirus 3-Week-Long Spring Break in Ohio
I know I joke an awful lot when it comes to serious issues. It’s a problem. Or maybe it’s a cure? I have always had a tendency to say the most inappropriate things at the wrong times. But hey, that’s just me. I feel better when I make a joke about something scary. It doesn’t…… Continue reading Coronavirus 3-Week-Long Spring Break in Ohio
