Sigh. This is never going to get better because of stupid selfish people who keep doing unnecessary things.

I see they have added an H to the counties that have high incidence. Uh, what's happening in western Ohio?

Damn. My county is red now. We were yellow up until last week when we went orange. Now red. Part of me wonders if people aren't being careful about distancing at pumpkin patches? Cause those are literally the only attractions here.

I think I gave up hope a while ago about our numbers getting better. I mean, I know at some point they have to, with a vaccine and all that, but really, hope gone.

What do the stripes mean on that map? Does that mean the county is trending to the next level?

And the people who never altered their behavior, like my mom. And she wonders why I won’t come near her (I’m immunocompromised, it’s not rocket science).

I've seen posts of super crowded apple orchards & places that do all the fun fall stuff. Masks pulled down, no social distancing. I just don't know anymore.

We signed DS back up for bowling. I was feeling good about it because there's only 3 kids to a lane but of course one of the kids in his area is an anti-masker. I heard his mom say something about he's under 10 but yet his older brother didn't have one either & he's at least 16. Her mask was always at her chin.
We always seem to find them.

Sigh. All of this occurring when my SIL is throwing a big birthday party for her husband. We are not going so she’s pissed and won’t speak to H. I mean... we are in a pandemic. Last I heard she was planning an open bar, catering, etc. In normal times that would be fun but now? No thanks.

I actually laughed when I checked the numbers today. Not a happy or amused laugh. A "holy shit, WTFBBQ" laugh.

We also have a lot of universities in this area but he won’t say that I am shocked though that Franklin is not red. Given the fact that it also has several. Ohio State must be doing something right. I think almost every other county w/ a public institution is red, right?

I am frustrated with the numbers today. It's our wedding anniversary & we had made the decision to do a patio as soon as the place opens. We haven't been actually out somewhere to eat since last year. I'm second guessing it now. 😩

I went Wednesday. So glad I went when I did. They had 2 people checking people in and there was one person at each of the things, the second guy just getting there right before me. I was called up within 5 minutes of getting there and stood outside the entire time. After I was checked in, went back the hall to actually vote and there was no wait there. Quick in and out.

I mean, so what now? He said before he wouldn't shut down anything again. Clearly people aren't following the rules. So what happens now? We just reach 5,000 cases a day and hope for the best? Like wtf.
