There were only 5 of us in training today, all from different small towns. The training leader asked us to introduce ourselves, say where we are from, and (weirdly) where we may be planning a vacation this year. She said she was going to PA. I was next and said I was going nowhere since I have too many animals to just leave. Surprisingly, everyone else said they were not going anywhere and the last person mentioned the virus. The leader then said her PA trip was postponed from April to later in the year.
I was supposed to go back to KY the last weekend of March, but I canceled last night. My friends then offered to come here. I have a hard time saying no, but it was the easiest no ever last night. I explained that my mom is my #1 priority and the reason I am limiting my movements is to protect her. The fewer people I see, the fewer people my mom “sees” by extension. My friends are just not taking it seriously. I also intended to get a specific kind of rescue puppy from KY this spring but I’m going to have to postpone that as well.
