Tests and soft lockdowns in A Day in the Life of Me

So.. I’ve had to cancel my trip.
65 cases today…ffs
A house party of 22 uni students busted up Saturday morning. All of them bragging on social media about getting the tickets.
Fuckers.
Rumor has it most of this community spread that had started the spikes is due to a couple who moved here from Ontario, DID NOT isolate, and hosted a BBQ…
Major spikes have caused the city to go into a soft lockdown. So, gathering limits of 5 ppl, and no travel in or out of the city.
Gyms/salons/personal service businesses are closed for up to 4 weeks and restaurants are take out only.

We left the house late this morning, walked downtown to a popup testing site, because apparently there was 3 straight days in the past week where there was exposure at the mall we live by, and D walks through everyday.
Fucking unpleasant.
But we are both negative.
While we were in line, we got texts from friends informing us of a conference being called for 330 today, we fully expected to be in total lock down, but found out they were basically just reiterating the restrictions already in place, putting a gathering limit to areas outside of the city, and raised the fine from $1000 to $2000.
To bad the Uni students are getting hit with those ones…

Put up the following last night on FB ~~

All day, I’ve been trying to write a post. One was to whiney, another to bitchy and another to pity- party.
The gist is, right now, this household is not in a good place. WE’RE good. Things are just not good for us. We’re mad AF and upset AF even if we don’t show it when we’re around others.
One needs to go shoot things and another needs a horse. Don’t even care what or if there is a saddle involved.
So if we seem “off” or responses are delayed…
We’re dealing with personal shit.

Ment to follow up on here, but then I saw the announcement of the exposure sites and D and I were plotting what to do about testing and got sidetracked.
It all stands true today.
Just so damn done.
All I wanted was to go see my Mother, instead, I had to go get a stick shoved up my nose....
I thought I would sneak down with the father of my friend son who has an appointment on the 5th, but he’s pretty freaked out by the rising numbers, so he’s not even sure if he’s bringing his kid up for said appointment.
Guess we’ll wait and see.
Might just rebook the shuttle in a week or so, if things die off /relax a bit numbers wise.

Urgh people are just so bloody selfish! They just keep having parties and not caring about other people. It’s the same over here, massive gatherings of thousands of teenagers organising their own festivals, illegally. This is the reason this pandemic is sticking around for so long!

yep. We are officially in a province-wide lockdown in effect at 8am tomorrow.
D's work is going into curbside only tomorrow, though i don't know if will stay that way.
