I don't call it fear. I call it caution...because that's what it is. We are cautious, with our own rules that we are comfortable with, so we are pretty much doing as you are, except we aren't going into restaurants at all yet. Hubs goes and swims laps at pools that aren't near being crowded. I play pickleball with a small closed group of like minded ladies..it is really easy to social distance, bring your own chair , sanitize balls (and hands) after each game, and no high 5 ing, etc. Other than that, I play bridge with the duplicate bridge club, which has done an amazing job of setting up practice sessions and tournaments. If you don't have a regular partner, you can hop in with another table of comparable level or play with robots ...all online. We considered starting to have one of our couple friends over that we knew were doing the same guidelines, but they ended up leaving and going back north when Fl took the big spike and hospitals were getting full. So we are hapy with what we are doing for now. I choose to read almost every time I think I need to clean the house!!

Hubs is an AWESOME cook, so COVID has given me an extra 20 (I call it COVID20), so now I've started working out a home as well.

And who knows if someone who has had it and has antibodies is a carrier?

No bras to burn, I work my chest muscles and all is in place. My dude has a wife because he listens when he needs to. Friends are single (for good reason - don’t listen) and ride alone a lot, they get lonely, so try to hang out. Therefore I have to limit our times with them. Good friends though, helpful, fun etc many decades.

The lady in question with 97 friends is an OR nurse, and the 'friends' are the people she works alongside. She spends up to 16 hours a day masked and fully booted along with all the others fighting this virus.
They are all tested regularly.
Relax!

Good for you but sometimes someone could get it without realizing it. Found out today my youngest sister has antibodies. Who would have thought?
