    Operation Isolation Day 11

    Reality hits as our very first case was confirmed in our little county,

    We decided that the extra Turkey I bought after the holidays was to be made into a "Traditional" 2nd Thanksgiving Dinner tonight

    The snow will soon be gone as the hard wet rains of spring arrived today, and we begin "Mud Season"
    It is truly the only ugly season up here, as the snow recedes all the trash that it covered can be seen.

    We are nice n cozy with a fire going in the woodstove, the cabin should be smelling of a Spatchcocked turkey, with all the fixins Mmmmmmm

    Damn it I forgot rolls

    Take care and stay well

    Same boat Richard I just don’t watch them especially if it’s too realistic, 50; years forgetting don’t need a reminder

    I agree! There isn't much uglier than a dirty snow bank as it is melting.

    Doctors are reporting they now understand the behavior of the COVID 19 virus due to autopsies that they have carried out. This virus is characterized by obstructing respiratory pathways with thick mucus that solidifies and blocks the airways and lungs. So they have discovered that in order to apply a medicine you have to open and unblock these airways so that the treatment can be used to take effect however all of this takes a number of days. Their recommendations for what you can do to safeguard yourself are ...

    1) Drink lots of hot liquids - coffees, soups, teas, warm water. In addition take a sip of warm water every 20 minutes bc this keeps your mouth moist and washes any of the virus that’s entered your mouth into your stomach where your gastric juices will neutralize it before it can get to the lungs.
    2) Gargle with an antiseptic and warm water like vinegar or salt or lemon every day if possible
    3) The virus attaches itself to hair and clothes. And detergent or soap kills it but you must take bath or shower when you get in from the street. Avoid sitting down in your home and go straight to the shower. If you cannot wash your clothes daily, hang them in sunlight which also helps to neutralize the virus
    4) Wash metallic surfaces very carefully bc the virus can stay viable on these for up to 9 days. Take note and be vigilant about touching hand rails, door knobs, etc. and keep these clean in home home
    5) Don’t smoke
    6) Wash your hands every 20 minutes with any soap that foams and do this for 20 seconds
    7) Eat fruits and vegetables. Try to elevate your zinc levelS
    8)Animals do not spread the virus to people. Its a person to person transmission.
    9)Try to avoid getting the common flu as this already weakens your system and try to avoid eating and drinking any cold things.
    10) If you feel any discomfort in your throat or a sore throat coming on, attack it immediately using the above methods. The virus enters the system through the throat but will sit in the throat for 3-4 days before it passes into your lungs.

    In addition ...

    Experts suggest doing this simple verification every morning: Breathe in deeply and hold your breath for 10 seconds. If this can be done without coughing, without difficulty, this shows that there is no fibrosis in the lungs, indicating the absence of infection. It is recommended to do this control every morning to help detect infection.

    I have decided that this virus is going to be good for the health of dogs.

    I have never seen so many people out walking their dogs!
