That's great news Sue @sueinmn. I'm praying for all our nurses, doctors, healthcare, and personnel who serve the communities. Also hoping 3M and other companies can gear up quickly to make more masks and ventilators. Thank you for sharing your repeated pleas to friends, family and acquaintances. My group is smaller but I try to do the same. I do worry about my wife working at different local post offices at age 75. She is in excellent health but sometimes thinks she's invincible. Our daughter works at Mayo in Rochester and I do worry a little about her since she has a pacemaker implant. We haven't had any COVID-19 cases here in Dodge County yet but I'm sure we will sooner or later.

P.S. - We had a trace of snow here last night but it's 22 degrees and the sun is out now. I was surprised to see the sanding truck drive by the house this morning. Must be a little slippery.

Yes, we can all pray for our healthcare professionals and those many other personnel who serve our communities to keep basic services like utilities, garbage pickups and others well and able to do their jobs.

Just curious, yesterday my e-mail was absolutely flooded with posts from our covid-19 group. Today, not one message in my e-mail box. Has something changed with posts and response deliveries or is it maybe my Yahoo e-mail that has made this difference?

@johnbishop Thanks, John. I would like everyone to know my sister works at 3M in Maplewood, and she says they have indeed ramped up to maximum production and shipping of protective equipment in all of their plants - even as they have sent everyone else to work from home.
I would say we need to be equally grateful to our postal workers, factory workers, truckers and supermarket/big box store workers who have stayed on the job despite all the fears about close contact. Please wish your wife well for me and tell her to stay safe.
Sue
