I don’t think I will ever feel safe on a cruise ship again. So many ways to pick up the virus on a ship? I figure DH and I are freeing up a cabin for someone who wants it. Enjoy!

My guess is that you don't realize that it's a two-way street, @PJinIA. I feel lectured and dismissed when I voice my concerns. Apparently, some of us should just shut up already and take refuge in our basements. Unfortunately, I live in SoCal and don't have one, so I'll be here posting my opinion just as you do.

When they do it, they think it's freedom of speech. When others do it, they think they're being scolding schoolmarms trying to control them.

I don't pay attention to that particular criticism anymore because it is always delivered in the most unpleasant, scolding lecturing tone, with zero sense of irony.

@suzyQ3

What I find amusing is how many times they criticize, but never think to address who they are speaking to. So, no one knows who the heck they are talking to. They are just complaining to .... who knows?

Not to get too specific, but where in So Cal?

No apparently some don't get tired of it. I agree with your comment completely.

I am a 76 year old woman with insulin dependent diabetes. I have had open heart surgery and have other problems. I stayed home the first week or so and after that said that is enough for me. I am not hiding in the convines of my home. I do go out even went to lunch a couple days ago and .have been to the mall.I do wear a mask and have since september in certain places. My car looks like I live in it with lysol spray hand sanitiazer, clorox wipes and. paper towels. I pray I don't get it but it is what it is and hopefully will someday just be a bad nightmare.

Just an FYI: There is for many a comfortable medium. Maybe some do need total isolation, but most of us do not stay inside the confines of our residence 100 percent of the time.

Many of us walk in our neighborhoods, do essential shopping, and meet with family and friends wearing masks and distancing. Some are stilled employed.

But many of us who are high risk do limit exposure to the best of our ability. We avoid unnecessarily putting ourselves in danger.

I'm sorry, I thought when I hit reply to Porcelain it would be obvious who I was addressing. Clearly I don't post on this forum enough to even know how it works!

I think most people are beyond weary of this pandemic and doing the best they can to get through it. I wear a mask every single time I go out in public when required, I social distance when required and in general I'm careful not to get or give this virus to anyone. I simply refuse to worry 24-7 about this virus and choose to live life as close to normal as possible. At some point we have to get on with life, I think there is a lot of harm done to some people due to the isolation that is never talked about. My 87 year oild mother is in an assisted living home and when I went to visit her last week there was a lady sitting next to her and I asked her how she liked it there and she replied..."I hate it here, I'm so lonely I just want to die!" How many of our elderly feel this way? No visitors are allowed inside, only 2 of us can visit my mom by appointment for 1 hour and we have to sit outside. We have to wear gowns, masks, have temp & oxygen levels taken which is fine BUT I live in Iowa and winter is just around the corner. Are we supposed to sit in the parking lot for Thanksgiving & Christmas? No one has any answers as to how long this goes on while the people who live here are so lonely they want to die!

No answers, no solutions....we all just wait for it to end It's just frustrating, that's all!
