Where I am, it hasn’t been bad yet. I’m hoping it stays that way. We’re ready for it to get worse though.

Good luck lunar.
Also, there are some no-sew masks tutorials with a bandana/handkerchief and some hairbands out there. If you really need one and don't feel like sewing you might want to look for it.

And thank you everyone for the knitting recommendations. In the end though the store I wanted to go to was closed -___- I expected it would but I checked the site and they didn't say it was closed so I'm a bit annoyed. Thankfully, my main target was the supermarket in the same building but still annoying.

Oh? Where are you lunar, that it hadn’t been that bad, as you say?

I can relate to not getting enough butterflies due to still working, Lunar.

My country isn't on full lockdown/quarantine and I suppose that's lucky, I'd hate if I can't even take a walk outside by myself to play some Pokémon GO while I do have to face people outside every day at work.

Good luck and stay safe everyone! And thank you to those who are still working during his frightening time.

My country is in full quarantine state, but you can still walk outside: you just can't walk with more than 3 people and have to keep 1,5 meters distance from everyone. Thankfully, otherwise this quarantine would be impossible to sustain!

@Kuuki: That's annoying. At least it wasn't a wasted trip since you went to other places. I had to order some knitting needles online for this project since I didn't have any the right size in my mismatched collection. I think I paid more for shipping than the needles.

My state has a shelter in place order, but you can still work if you need too, go to the grocery store, or walk around outside. Which means throwing a party (like my neighbor across the street did over the weekend) and chitchatting when people meet up while walking. I also live near a park that has trails, baseball fields, football, track, etc, and a playground and I've seen a lot of cars there. I'm hoping they are walking the trails, but I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't playing in one of the fields in the back of the park.

I live in upstate New York. New York city and the area surrounding it are really bad and are the epicenter of the outbreak in the US, but upstate where I am hasn't had many cases. Its probably because we have such a low population density. We're still on quarantine like the rest of the state but the cases here are minuscule.

You play pokemon go too! That's one of the few things we've been still able to do. We just drive around now and park at pokestops.

YEah I still work too, but I prefer it that way. Staying inside is cool but I like that my job is secure even in tough times, and I can still be useful to society.
It has been very different and weird though. I work in mental health and we can't see people face to face, we have to do everything with phones now. It's not satisfying at all but it's better than nothing.

But I don't have much time for butterflies. Also, just refreshing the page for an hour to get butterflies is nothing for me. I prefer to do 30 secs here and there. I usually buy the fc item to finish quests but I'm out of fc right now..

How are the face to face meetings going? I had to have one with my therapist, and I felt like we didn't get much accomplished.
