What are you doing during quarantine?

Very well said piper 6909.

Since I was "retired" by my company almost 4 yrs ago, my daily routine hasn't been upset too much. I work in my garage or learn stuff on the computer - mostly 928 info lately. I do miss the social interaction with our Porsche club. I've become my mom's grocery getter, as she's a healthy 87 and we want to keep her that way. Trying to figure out what exact product she lists and shopping in a different grocery store has been my biggest challenge, so I'm rather fortunate.

RPM, our local race track (and made famous by the video "Nemesis!!!") has been hanging on by a thread because of all the flooding last yr. We were certain it would flood again this yr because of mismanagement of the Missouri River flood control, but luckily RPM has remained dry. They were getting ready to implement a huge paving project where they would repave the paddock (it was a total mess from the floods) and putting a NASCAR sealer on the track. That came to a halt as the paving company can't work during the quarantine. We had to postpone our May 2-3 DE to late June. Poor RPM was flooded twice last yr and now that it's dry, still can't catch a break. Would be a shame to lose them.

In my off time, mostly staying at home other than some short grocery trips and a trip to Lowes for some stuff to do around the house and yard. Still only a few cases of COVID19 in my area, so many people seem unconcerned and most businesses are open with some minor adjustments and cautions. A local park was full of kids yesterday, sharing their family's germs on the playground equipment with everyone else in the community.

I tried to put a new-to-me bra on the '04 SE this morning, but the fit seems too tight across the bottom. I think it's made for the 1997 - 2002 bumpers.


My job is transporting sick and injured people. Still pretty normal other than wearing at least a surgical mask around all patients. We have always worn N95 masks around infectious patients.
I avoid going into hospitals except as needed. No going to the cafeteria for lunch, or hitting the nurse's station for a cup of coffee.

My son closes on a house today. All of that seems to be going normally except I think that the sellers are going to do their part from another location. His wife is due to have my 7th grandchild in about 2 weeks. The hospital says only one visitor (my son) and once he leaves the hospital, he can't come back. He's planning to stay overnight.

Business as usual here. Selling parts & maintaining my car

I have been working from home(WFH) 2 days a week for years so now, my company has us all WFH. I love it since my move in Jan makes my commute 2 hrs each way. I work more now because I'm not driving 12 hrs/week for the 3 days I was in the office.
About ready to put a big order into Home improvement store so I can work on some home projects

Interesting that the Adventure Motorcycle forum I'm on, many riders are self quarantining them selves from deep wild woods riding so as not to possibly create and use up unnecessary medical attention and possibly any recovery resources that might be needed.

Thanks very much man. All of the above. It looks better in a picture than in real life. Believe it or not....it was once track driven. I realized after seeing people crashing at every track day, all around me that I had an attachment. Track days were very hard on it and decided that I wanted to keep it long term.
