A No Covid19 Discount?

21 Replies

So if you don’t have it, you get a discount, but if you do, you pay full price. 🤷🏻‍♀️ That’s an incentive(?)

Walking around Old Town Temecula this afternoon because no one is out and I have been isolated the past 8 days. I needed some fresh air! It’s normally packed in Old Town on a Saturday, but today looked like the Zombie Apocalypse. 🧟‍♀️ (fortunately, because I’m staying away from people 😆).

If you do have it, they should charge you extra! Of course, I don’t know how you would know since they aren’t testing anyone unless you’re half dead or a VIP.

Ha, ha. I agree about the extra charge unless they are masochists?

In California they have been sending out alerts for locations for ‘mass’ testing. You do need to make an appointment ahead, but at the location sites you merely drive up, stay in your car, and they test you. They have had quite a few pop up, so I bet that will happen in your area as well.

Wow. 😳

Capitalism at its most compassionate.

Don't let the zombies eat you're brains.

Perhaps you've been a zombie yourself for some time but people have been too polite to tell you. 😁

I feel this might be me also.

in reply toFreckle1000

Ha, ha, if so, I’d be more like Nick Holt in Warm Bodies. I’d still have a beating heart😊

Is Donald Trump a zombie ?

in reply toFreckle1000

No, please. No picking on my President. I actually think he’s great!

I apologise. 🙃

Our prime minister ( Oz ) is like a slightly bewildered teddy bear.

Thank you Freckle. I appreciate the apology. Let’s High 5 (with social distancing) 🤚

Ha, ha. Just sneeze on them. 🤧 or cough 😷 on them. Maybe that will be enough?

Was that meant to be a joke?!

Was really in poor taste either way!

( not your post, I mean the sign... to be clear! ❤️)

in reply toKellyInTexas

I hope it was a joke. I’m assuming it was a joke 🤷🏻‍♀️

I hope you stay well!

We are near San Antonio. About 70 miles north west- in Kerr county.

So far ok- faring very well- but we’ve had our first positive confirmed Community exposure this past week.

We are a close, small community. ( 25,000) but serve a larger rural area.

We shall see.

I was in NY / NJ Princeton metroplex the week it all broke loose there- and WHO officially declared it a pandemic and Trump closed the nation.

I was in and out of hospital getting INR draws- had a hematology appointment also. ( pre booked for a month. ) was with daughter who supposed to have a lupus appointment...

When I can back I was under quarantine by hospital, as it should have been. I still am until this Saturday. It will be the 14 day mark this Saturday- two days from now.

Oh wow, I had no idea. 🙏I’m glad you are fairing well. I put myself into isolation 2 weeks ago tomorrow simply as a preemptive measure, but now that the rest of my state is under mandatory isolation, I feel somewhat less isolated🤷🏻‍♀️. I will continue to stay in and away, except for walks out, and groceries if necessary. Just to ride this through.

All my best Kelly🙏; to you, your daughter, and your family. May this pass quickly.

I’m doing just fine!

I’m on high intensity Rituximab and high fairly high dose prednisone- so high risk.

Meh- it is what it is- just good hygiene.

Have a son still in high school- so busy being mom.

Life goes on! ❤️

in reply toKellyInTexas

Oh yes, busy teens make for even busier moms. It’s been a long time but seems like yesterday 🤔.

I agree, we aren’t in charge. We can only do our very best.

Not what you're looking for?
