Gov. Wolf to announce more counties moving to yellow phase on Friday, some possibly to green phase
https://www.wtae.com/article/gov-wolf-t ... e/32631607#

It's pretty surprising that green announcements may come tomorrow. You would think they'd want to stay in yellow at least long enough to monitor cases.

Don't know about others but Yellow did not change anything for me.

A lot of stores re-opened in this area when going to yellow. Additionally: daycare.

[nocera]

Nothing changed for me in yellow and I doubt much will change in green.

My gym is open now with all the typical measures and restrictions and I thought no way I'm going. But then again I think a ton of other people are probably thinking that too and I'd at least get a workout in and I need to lift something heavier than a sandwich. So I think tmw I'll mask up and be clangin & bangin

I'm very happy that I bought adjustable dumbells (up to 40 lb) a couple years ago. Because good luck buying any home gym stuff now

[Shyster]

Yes, exercise equipment of all sorts is pretty much impossible to find (at least online), and expensive when available. If you want a basic set of Amazonbasics dumbbells, for example, I think Amazon is saying they might ship in July.

We just moved into a house with a rotting swing and slide set (didn’t realize it was in that bad of shape). A ton of people must have bought them to replace parks because they’re all out of stock right now.

Ohio just announced that weddings up to 300 people will be allowed starting June 1. No dancing is allowed and apparently everybody has to stay at their table. That’s next to impossible to enforce. Definitely going to hear about an infected person attending a wedding and causing a large outbreak.

[willeyeam]

Lol good luck with that

We made the decision to postpone our late June wedding. Even if PA allows it, I’ll still be completely at peace with our choice. I can’t imagine forcing an at-risk family member to choose between their safety or attending our wedding. And imagine if somebody did get sick and die because they attended my wedding? That guilt would be unbelievable.

Sounds like my kind of wedding

Getting married may 30. Originally had 40-50 people in Asheville area. Now, about 15 people at a friends place in Boone area. No family can really travel, so just some close friends. Second marriage for both of us, so don’t need anything big anyway.

Is this from The Onion...?

If not, anyone that wrote this up should be immediately terminated...

[King Colby]

I feel like they know full well thats not going to happen, but they say it anyway to soften the blow and get themselves off the hook if **** goes south

My sister was planning on getting married in Asheville on May 10. They moved their wedding to November

My parents were married in Asheville (1958).

I've been keeping up with the daily riding of my exercise bike. Exercise helps with anxiety and gives me something to do. My weight is now under 230 lbs from a high of probably close to 270 lbs. The 48-waist dress pants that I most recently wore to work are now way too big. I pulled out some older 44-waist pants that I used to wear, and they fit again with room to spare.

That's awesome man!!! Keep at it. You will be under 200 before you know it.

Congrats man!

[MWB]

Thanks. Bummed my parents can’t be there, but we’ll try to have a big party next year.

[Freddy Rumsen]

You can invite me

pros: I drink a lot and can be a lot of fun

cons: you have to invite me

[MWB]

Ok, you’re invited. Everyone here is invited!

Actually to be as laid back as it gets. Get there Friday. Go to a new alpine coaster they have. Go to brewery and then to grill out. Golf Saturday morning. Do a little hiking. Have the ceremony at an overlook. Go back to the house to eat, drink, and have fun. Still need to find a caterer though, so there’s that.
