Following the lead of @MrBook (thanks for the tag), who was inspired by Kevin Bacon‘s #istayhomefor:

-my family, especially my two wonderful grandkids, my husband, and @Alisnazzy , who still has to go to work every day
-my community, because we are all connected and all dependent on each other
-I have to be honest and say myself, because I am n the high risk group and my anxiety is through the roof
-for this beloved online community

ValerieAndBooks Wasn‘t it just yesterday that your granddaughter was born?! Yes it is good to remember why we should stay home, even if it‘s so hard to do so. 4y

I stay home for:

1. Our health care workers (fighting the good fight).
2. My nephew with diabetes.

I love this idea from Kevin Bacon, posted by @MrBook & @KristenDuck

#istayhomefor this little dude.I‘m not the only immune compromised person in the family,my grandson Tavis was born with most of his corpus callosum missing which has caused a lot of health issues including poor temperature regulation & a host of other issues.On top of that he has severe asthma! But he‘s bright, intelligent & cheeky,the plasticity of children‘s brains is amazing.

Butterfinger He is precious!! 4y
LeahBergen He‘s darling! ❤️ 4y
Centique What a sweetheart 😍 love and best wishes to ya 💕 4y
Cathythoughts Gorgeous ❤️ 4y
Lynnsoprano Love to both of you 😘 4y

I would like to remind women as primary care givers to care for themselves in the time of Coronavirus and be sure to take care of yourself.

I stay home for:
1. My husband
2. My daughters
3. My grandchildren
4. Myself who has no immune system
5. Others that I may infect
6. My books who need to be read and organized

I‘m hoping others will stay home too!

@MrBook Thanks for the tag!
@KristenDuck Thanks for starting #IStayHomeFor

gradcat @EadieB Very good advice, Eadie. I had to go get water at the store, as we were running low & I didn‘t want my 82-year-old mother to go. I figured I would be in and out, so I was shocked to see a grocery store full of people only yesterday! And we‘re the 3rd-most hit state with Coronavirus cases per capita in the US! I really expected to find very few people out shopping. We hadn‘t been out in days until I went to get the water. I can‘t believe it 4y
EadieB @gradcat I know people are not following the guidelines and they are putting others in jeopardy. Do your food stores have delivery? I found that so much easier. Have an order in now for pick-up for this Sunday as all the delivery times were taken. (edited) 4y
gradcat @EadieB We do have delivery, but they can‘t get to us until tomorrow at 9 pm. That‘s why I went out yesterday for water. I just couldn‘t bear for my mom to go, even though I‘m at risk owing to immunodeficiency and other factors. I literally thought I would be able to just run in & grab water, but it took much longer than I thought. I‘ll not do that again anytime soon! (We actually put our order in last Saturday—can you believe it takes that long?) 4y
EadieB @gradcat Many are doing home delivery but it should get better. You have to start your next order as soon as they deliver your present order in order to get a good delivery date. We had to do pick-up for Sunday as the delivery open date was 2 weeks from now. So my husband will pick-up the order on Sunday and the pet store is next door for the dog food and they will come out to your car. Strange times we are living in. 4y
gradcat @EadieB Strange times, indeed...it‘s like a science-fiction novel from the 1980s! 4y
EadieB @gradcat Reminds me of Stephen King's 4y
gradcat @EadieB Reminds me of several books by Robin Cook & Michael Crichton! 📚 4y
EadieB @gradcat Yes! Those books are relevant too! 4y

Stay home, stay strong, stay healthy!”

I stay home for:

1. My family
2. My friends

4. My book club peeps
5. Those who still work on-site

#istayhomefor in reply to @KristenDuck

I haven‘t gone anywhere for the past week, and I‘m quite liking it. Unfortunately, my husband works for Uline and they did not shut down even when the governor said to. They deemed themselves “essential,” and billionaires get what they want. Two people from his work had to be quarantined, so if they had it, employees were exposed. The company is still having them go in. 🙄

Lcsmcat 🤞🏻 for your husband. My kids were all exposed at work. It‘s tough waiting for the results. 4y
TheQuietQuill Hopefully all is well with your kids ❤️ The really bad thing is how long the results take to come back. I‘m hoping the two people at his work that are being quarantined did not have it, but it‘s scary how fast it‘s spreading. Sending good vibes your way and to your children as well! @Lcsmcat 4y
