As of last midnight the Netherlands is in semi lockdown again. Only necessary shops like supermarkets, pharmacies etc. are open, the rest will be closed until January 19. Schools are closed too. I think it's the best solution,...

Sissy15 @Marisawriter At least you have people that can sort of get along we just don't have that here. I wish we did. Most Americans are tired of all of their crap it's one of the few things we can agree on. We all seem to hate each other but we hate the government...

I was watching the news today, and media reports a new strain of the corona virus. It was said it is 70 times worst than what we have seen. How in the world could it have happened. I just began to pray. I can't even imagine...

Titia Geertman @Marisawriter We have a King, a Cabinet and a Commissary for each of the 12 Provinces. The Cabinet has the overall power on all things concerning the whole country. The Commissionaries have a certain power over their Province, but they can never ignore a...

msdivkar @Marisawriter There may not be a need to vaccinate everybody. If we can do that with good majority that will suffice to control this pandemic.

I read that we will soon be getting the vaccines here and that even with them will have restrictions. So, will they be better than nothing or what? I do not know what the restrictions will be but am wondering since so many here do...

Hanni Harel @Marisawriter I will talk to my doctor and decide at the time whether or not for me if I want to get it or not.

ShannyBananny @Marisawriter I have a bad immune system though and don’t want to die from Corona so I think getting the vaccine will be a good idea. I’ll just have to see what the doctor says.

ShannyBananny @Marisawriter my mother carriers an epipen. I should carry one for when I get stung by wasps or bees but I don’t have one. My daughter and I have severe allergies to certain antibiotics.

My "pop psychology" thought for the day. I've come to the conclusion that every human being NEEDS to feel part of a tribe. It's a fundamental part of our nature. I know that for many people, their "tribe" is their nation. But...

Sissy15 @Marisawriter Honestly, it's rude here too but people don't care. You'd be amazed or maybe not at how incredibly forward people can be here. They don't even care if they're being rude. It's not even just political parties either they'll ask how much you earn...

While washing my hair today I got a sudden backflash to how my mother used to do it for me when I was little. I used to hate it. We didn't have a shower or even a bathroom, and no hot water on tap. She would heat the water in a...

Sissy15 @Marisawriter Probably the majority. I'm one of a smaller handful that doesn't like them. I am also one of a handful who doesn't affiliate with either major political party. I vote and then I leave it at that but everyone wants to know who you voted for and I...

I live in Australia and we've had some long, hard lockdowns due to Covid. As a result, my life this year has been incredibly different from any other year - and I think some things will never change back. For instance: 1. I...

Sissy15 @Marisawriter I am an introvert so I've always enjoyed the quiet but I still kept busy between my son and my husband. We live in a fairly big house in a small town about three miles from town but we are on a highway so it's definitely not quiet. I always liked...

Judy Evans @Marisawriter Yes, Melbourne seems to be right now. We have a son in Melbourne and another in Ireland, where things aren't quite so good. Since our borders open we now have to sign in anywhere we go. There is a phone app but that doesn't work for everyone.

Sissy15 @Marisawriter I honestly never think about how I eat my food. I precut all of my food before hand simply because it's easier for me because I have carpal tunnel issues so I like to get it out of the way instead of struggling throughout the meal but my husband...

Sissy15 @Marisawriter I usually eat about half of what comes on my plate at a restaurant. At home, I will literally go all day without eating and then eat dinner so I genuinely don't eat a lot. I might eat more at one sitting but I still eat less than the recommended...

Hanni Harel @Marisawriter Thank you for the information you gave me. Normally I would do it but since I am very afraid to be around people not sure what I will do. Very wise to see how it affects those that get it.

I am sure some of you will agree that we have additional expenses brought by this coronavirus. As of today, I went out to buy two boxes of disposable face masks and three pieces of face shields. The face shields are just a reserve...

Shavkat @Marisawriter I agree. Now, I prefer to buy disposable ones.
