Good luck Roy. My husband had to let his team go. It was really tough. Thanks everyone. I know things are difficult all over. Hugs to you all in your individual struggles. mom3 wrote:

How are things?
It has been interesting to observe from a distance, the varying degrees of leadership in our Country. I’m not going to get into politics. There are good & bad at all levels of our government. City, county, state & federal government. You can get into the military leadership too.
They can be ranked from exceptional to total incompetence. I’m sorry to say.
As I’ve said in another post: Don’t forget to vote. (We will be hearing that a lot in the coming days, weeks & months.)
I am fortunate to have a job that is considered essential, due to my employer and client base, with very little chance of reduced hours. Virtual hugs for everyone.

Covid Clear as of yesterday afternoon.It’s been ages since I felt that much relief, joy, elation. She was tested Sunday evening. Told she would have the results by Tuesday. Tuesday came and went with nothing. She still was having headaches, cough, can’t taste or smell. We were silently preparing for the worst. When the news came in – it was a full on party.
It will still take time for complete recovery, but she can begin to “be more normal” –
The wildest part is how exhausted I am now. 2.5 weeks of pulling for this takes a silent toll. We are all in need of recuparation.
Nibbler, thanks for remembering and asking.
That is great news mom3. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. What will she do next? Will she come home? Or stay there? That’s a big relief. Quote:

Both areas are in lock down until Mid May roughly. Once those bans are lifted we will make our next decisions. – We are all craving hugging her and being near her. We have used Zoom, skype, whatsapp 24/7. Sometimes just to even watch her sleep, so she could sleep and not be worried that her breathing would become compromised while she slept. We are ever so grateful she was not hospitalized. We likely would have lost contact with her. I don’t even want to imagine how that would work out.

Yes it is. I can’t describe the feelings, it was beyond emotions, something vast and expansive, like all the elements of life swarmed around when we heard. I may have said this here before, forgive me if I repeat.We were close as a family before this. We are fused in a way I never imagined. Today a game of Age of Empires took place. My joy was listening to all of them call out to each other and have fun. I could sit still and listen to that forever. I have my heaven right here, right now.
Glad she’s getting better Mom. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be being separated halfway around the world in a crisis like that. I think that’s why the church brought so many missionaries home. I’m enjoying zero-hour church. SilentDawning wrote:

I am not afraid to admit the same.
I know what you mean. I heard this morning that our ward to trying to set up a “virtual” sunday school broadcast. I’m sorry to say, that is my least favorite hour on Sunday

Our ward did a virtual (Zoom) SS today for the first time. I chose not to participate. I don’t participate in live at church SS, why would I do so virtually? The emphasis in our stake has been home worship and home study, I can do that just fine without having the ward do a virtual meeting. I do hear people say they do it because they miss church socialization. Socialization is not why I attend church.
