Yeah, Everywhere. We're locked down officially from Johnson County, Kansas, the State of Kansas, and even the president has issued a lockdown through April 30th. Everything we do, every thought, action and moment has COVID-19 behind it. Making coffee this morning; be sure to use bleach spray to wipe the counters just in case there's viral residue on there from the groceries yesterday. Every step, every thought focused on the pandemic. Do I have my will in place? Are my investments and insurance set up with beneficiaries? Are my kids and wife's life insurance set up with the right beneficiaries? Do I have enough cash to get the columbarium for my mom at the little church she wants to be interred at? (I know I don't have enough cash to get the columbarium for my big church for me).
Annd a Goood Morning to You! Sun's not out yet. The mind is bouncing around like a pinball. So, this is Day 8, the 8th day of lockdown.
Ah hah - Sun!

I got a gallon of Simple Green Industrial Cleaner and degreaser in yesterday. Used an old 409 bottle and mixed up a 1:30 solution. Not specifically designed as an anti-viral, but as COVID is simply RNA with a lipid coating, a degreaser should be quite useful in breaking down the external lipid (fat (grease)) coating. And it's a good general-purpose cleaner, leaving the 409 and Tilex bleach spray for specific disinfectant cleaning.

Meanwhile, I found a local small business making hand soap and hand sanitizer, Fire Lake Soapery, in Paola, KS. They use these gorgeous spun steel bottles for their products; I had to order some just to see how it works.
In closing, no particular drama for the day. The oldest son is working at the sandwich shop. Tomorrow I work remotely as we hit 'Day 0' of the Sprint - T-Mobile Merger. May be a non-event. May be a busy day. So, to that end, I sign off.
