What's the big thing you're looking forward to doing once Covid19 peeters out?

For one, I would like to just go to the mall or out to dinner.

I would really like to complete my preamp mission and buy one. It was put on hold because of the covid.

Emma's birthday party was cancelled and we had several mini trips cancelled too. I'm hoping I can schedule a beach house vacation for the family if I can survive this covid thing realatively unscathed both financially and physically.

    Fingers crossed that the housing market will hold up enough that we still sell the house we in now and get our first house together. Selling my house has been a bit of a roller coaster, so hopefully this 3rd contract will make it to closing.

    Nothing for me really. Work is very steady. Been business as usual. Except limiting grocery trip. I might buy more groceries!

    I'm single, cant find any women I care to date. Cause I live way out in the country. 30 miles from nearest store. So essence....I was "socially distancing" myself before it came to be thing to do! lol

    Well of course right when our newborn got her immunizations this quarantine kicked in. I just want to take her out and about anywhere.

    I'd like to go to the skatepark with my 9 year old daughter, go to Prescott and spend some time in the forest. Make up our 6 year anniversary with a real dinner (although I did buy prime bone in rib eyes for at home). Go hang out with my dad and gold pan or just have a beer an talk.

    Short answer? Lots.

    Seeing my family on the other side of the state. I'll be a first time grandpa come Aug/Sep and it's been video chat with my daughter throughout. For obvious reasons can't visit. Same with my folks. They're in the 70+ category, so visiting's out.

    Visit my son and his new bride at their new townhouse. Saw them only once since the mid-February wedding. Then have a dinner out with friends and hug them all.

    • Audio updates... been thinking about updating the HT setup since the end of last year. Maybe pop into Upscale Audio or somewhere for a listen.
    • Visit to favorite restaurants in Pasadena.
    • Flying lessons for one of the kiddos that were planned for February, but put off.
    • Buy a new truck and horse trailer for the wifey... they were already on the list for spring this year.
    • Sell or donate any unused speakers/components in storage (paid or unpaid) right now.
    • Get rid of that useless Rythmik Audio subwoofer that I've never liked. Useless for HT, and not helpful for music IMO.
    Alea jacta est!

    Do'h.

    Being overworked and stressed to the max can do that to people. ;)
