I just want to know who coined the term, "Social Distancing?" I've hated that since the first time I heard it! Wouldn't it just be so much easier and to the point to say, "STAY HOME!"
Re. the trip do we go in the same car (??), or a plane (no!) or a train (no!) or maybe a bus (no!)? My bags are packed and at the front door waiting for a decision on the transport. ![]()

But stay home is very different than social distancing, @AnikaBrodie. I really can't think of a better way to tell people to stay far apart when out.

@Imaoldhippie That goes without saying, but don't you think we'll need several?

"this too shall pass" was one of my fathers favorite sayings. when he passed in 2003 I got it tattooed on the inside of my left ankle. it is a far truer statement than "we're in this together". I dont feel "together" with anyone right now. therefore I'm all in for beach, umbrella drinks & cabana boys!!! how 'bout a little salsa dancing?!
@spursfan2 I'll need to have my first drink and then I'll meet you on the dance floor.

Social Distancing has a negative connotation that I fear may stay with us long after this is over. You can social distance yourself from groups of people, ex-friends/family, church/synagogue, significant others, etc. Stay Home may be more straightforward.
