This. It's rather pleasant. I'm actually getting stuff done.

Oddities:
You can't buy pork-n-beans. Any brand, any size. OK, I can see hand sanitizer, Clorox wipes. But pork-n-beans?
You can't buy tires at walmart in town. Rural areas, fine. No city tires.
Bank by drive-up only. They have 5 drive-up lanes, but only ONE person in the building. Turn up the radio and get mellow; it's gonna take an hour to get to the window.
Don't kiss your cat; coronavirus can infect cats and they can pass it on — dogs, not so much (WHEW!).

I'm allowed to have folks bring me horses again. Got a letter in the mail sayin' so, but I can only have one employee (I only had one to start with), part time (she was), MUST wear a mask (to train a horse!?! ALONE!?!) & I have to stagger my customers to no more than one at a time. I also have to put up plexiglass shields between my employees and customers (on a FARM?! Really?!) & provide sanitizing stations (Do they know what business I'm in?)
I choose NOT to open. I can afford to stay down still, and I'm still paying the kid that works for me through this. It's the right thing to do, and she has my mares colt to support.

Indeed. So she's not like that because she's about to have pups, that's her normal (presumed estrous) self.
Not mine btw.

That's what happens when science is legislated. The one-size-fits-all, one-size-fits-none solution. (Reminded of the old bit that a camel is a horse designed by a committee.) You see that kind of stuff all the time in codes and boilerplate. Like the warnings that wet power tools can electrocute, attached to a pneumatic drill.

Yeah I miss not going to casinos, buffets, state/county fairs, and cancellation of pro sports.
