How many times a week do you go out in public?

I'm so sorry for anyone forced to work right now. I'm not happy being old but at this time its good to be retired.  Doesn't make me feel any better for others.

Problem for retirees, too much time to watch cable news programs driving us over the edge. I can only watch so many old televison series too. And I have only hunkered down for just under two weeks now. Before that I did help others in the community but I think I pushed the health envelope to the maxx and decided time to get in my "mental bunker".......
I do recommend binge watching 
Homeland
Ozark
Billions

We are starting "Deep State" on Epixx this week but it is only 16 episodes
Pat, I think Billions would be up your alley. Wall Street ripping off people, and corruption in state and federal Government........wife and I are counting down to the new season in May right now. 

The only time I have cable news on is while I am sewing facemasks to donate to the community.  That's 2-3 hours a day.  The rest of the time, I'm in the yard - since the weather got nice, the weeds are roaring, or walking the dog, or puttering around the RV.  I've learned to make pasta and have now started sourdough starter.
I'm spending more time cooking from scratch, which I kind of enjoy.  Spending more time with DH just sitting on the deck with a gin & tonic.  Fridays at 5 we have a "Zoom cocktail hour" with friends.  Spending more time on the phone with family.  My sons are calling just to chat - which is really unusual.
If I weren't so worried about the effects on family, friends and others, I'd be having a pretty good time.

It is cold out there, freeze warning last night.


We are getting ready to leave to go pick up groceries.  Later all


I would love a Subway and wondering if we should chance it.


Our local one is VERY clean, a couple own and run it, always in there, so probably safe as anywhere.

I try to get a walk in every day. Just around my neighborhood. As for shopping I try to limit to once a week. Unfortunately it usually means more than one store as I cannot always find everything at one.
