My gut feeling

Tweet

My gut feeling is that the school will be closed down after this week is over. The superintendents throughout the state are meeting and reviewing information. This week while our schools have Spring Break our custodial staff is doing deep cleaning of all the buildings. I have said before that we own a fogger machine of some kind for sanitizing the buses. Dina, my bus driver, uses it regularly. She is responsible for cleaning the school vehicles. We have an e mail from our principal and he says they will let us know more Wednesday afternoon. I have plenty of things to keep me busy here at home, even after my company leaves. Yes, my daughter and her kiddos are still coming. They had to be out of their house for a few days, and this is easier than some of her other choices would have been. They never eat at restaurants when they travel. They stop at outdoor parks, etc. for breaks. They are home schooled. I do not believe they would be carrying the virus. My son-in-law's primary job should not be affected by shut downs. He is a parts counter person for a large automotive chain. His second job however is Youth Pastor. I do not know if their churches in the Minneapolis area are shutting down, ours here are. My daughter-in-law here in Kansas is a manager for a hotel chain, and she said they might close for a while. She does some of her work from home, though. My son works in the manufacture and shipping of farm equipment. Farms are not closing down, so his job should be fine. So my gut feeling is that there will be many places that are shut down. Many families will spend more time together. Some parts of our economy will suffer. If they cancel or go online only for school I do not know if we will then make up the days this summer, or not. At least now I know when we MIGHT have some answers. Feel free to share any light you have on this or any gut feelings as well.
