In this order: 1) Online Class 2) List ebay items 3) Ship ebay items 4) Use ebay money to buy more coins 5) Read So far I've been reading and catching up to a few series is enjoy. About halfway done as of now. So far I've knocked out ~35k pages I think. I have around 300 in the book I'm reading right now left, and then 2 more book series. 1 series is ~10k pages the other ~65k pages. So I've got plenty to do! Edited by GrapeCollects

I've rebuilt the little white picket fence in front of my house. It's been there since I bought the house in 2006, and American visitors always says it has a New England appearance! Sadly it was virtually destroyed in the gales we had back in February. I dismantled what was left, repaired and repainted the panels and re-erected the last bit yesterday!  |

No beer in sight for me !  Pubs are all closed, and will be for at least the next 6 months.  The whole population of Australia is in semi lockdown, except for essential shopping or medical reasons. If any of us are positive, and we leave our house, expect a very heavy fine. That applies to all Aussies. So far, 27 deaths, all old people over 60, with other morbid complications such as cancer, most of these from cruise ships. I spend about a total of 3 hours a day, here in the CCF. |

heh... touched on this in an email with another ccf member yesterday. this is nothing new for me. I tend to be more anti-social than social, so dodging people is a large part of my daily schtick. subsequently I tend to be a homebody, kind of hermity— trying to be retired, lying around with the cat, usually just reading if not playing with him or some coins— so staying home, staying in is how I've been living for at least a few years. I'm not a total shut-in, I pedal everywhere everyday & night. to the store for a backpack full of stuff, running errands, I try to be as quick & efficient as possible, snag any treasure along the way. we're not totally locked down/locked in (yet), we are just supposed to limit our outdoor activities & continue to observe the social distancing requirements. all of this has actually made it much easier for me to get around, lol..

I'm kicking a head of lettuce around the living room. That was funny I'm home most of the time anyway. Was introduced to Zoom recently where I meet some friends. Working on the back deck 24' x 10' replacing rotten wood with composite fake wood boards and a new railing. Little bit at a time. The grass will soon need regular mowing. Baking a cake tomorrow. LOL Everything is gonna be OK. For some I feel sad. My hat is off to the medical people and cops. We'll all bounce back soon. I don't think life as we all knew it a couple months ago will be all that much different than it was in a year from now. People don't want to live like this. |

One of the (otherwise healthy) guys I work with died yesterday morning from COVID-19. I'm thinking that by the time this whole thing calms down, most of us will have been touched in some way. With that said, I earnestly hope that you are correct and I'm wrong. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

I work at an O'Reilly Auto Parts & am a closing manager. Even though we cut hours, I'm still putting out 40hrs/week as of now. Essential pay + stimulus + tax return = $$$$

I bought a Brother label maker and I'm working on my albums in the evenings. I can work from home during the day. I used to drive a lot for business and stay away from home many nights so I'm not complaining now. Stay safe everyone and keep occupied.

Going stir crazy as we are on lock down by me . All I do all day is watch the news , read my e-mails and go on CCF . No more coin shows so I've been feeding my thirst on E-bay buying and biding on a few coins .
I tell you watching the News is getting very depressing each day . Wife and daughter not handling it very well . Prayers go out for all.
Did someone say e-mails?!?!?!?  Edited by USSID18

I tell you watching the News is getting very depressing each day I stopped "the news" altogether 3 years ago. Now limiting to 10 minutes in the morning and even that has been trimmed to every other day. Simply put, the news, is more detrimental to your health than the virus. Quote:
No beer in sight for me! 2 words... YOU BREW. I've got 12 gallons of beer and 18 gallons of "high octane" bubbling away as we speak. Paddle your way to Canada and I'll serve you a glass or two My latest Raspberry Ale (8.8% and goes down like cool-aid)  |
