I know it’s not that easy to joke or laugh about the Wuhan Coronavirus that China unleashed on the world, but sometimes I think a little levity helps us deal with the challenges all of us are facing. The other day a friend sent me the following list of thoughts, so I thought I would pass them on. I hope they lighten the load a bit.

• Now would probably be a good time to re-pave the roads.
• COVID-19 has grocery shelves looking like the Cincinnati Bengals trophy cases.
• Just read that tonight’s Powerball is up to 275 rolls of Angel Soft toilet paper!
• Many parents are about to discover the teacher was not the problem.
• 3 hours into homeschooling and 1 is suspended for skipping class and the other one has already been expelled.
• Homeschool day 1: wondering how I can get this kid transferred out of my class.
• This is the day dogs have been waiting for. They realize their owners can’t leave the house and they get them 24/7. Dogs are rejoicing everywhere. Cats are contemplating suicide.
• I wonder if God got so mad about all of our fighting down here that He sent us to our rooms?
• Don’t know why my fishing buddy is worried about the coronavirus, he never catches anything!
• The truth is, it’s not so boring at home. But it’s interesting that one bag of rice has 7,456 grains and another has 7,489.
• We are about 1 week away from knowing everyone’s true hair color!!!
• I’ve eaten 22 times and taken 13 naps and it’s still today!
