My daughters birthday today. We paid a company to come out and put signs in the yard, it’s a thing I wish I thought of, because kids aren’t having birthday parties. We bought her a new bedroom set. What she told mom she wanted. Tonight she asked me what did I get her. I said what do you mean. She said well that’s from mom. I had to explain to her what joint checking accounts meant. After 3 minutes she said “you can stop. Thanks dad.” ****ing kids.

My wife found out today the mayor isn't going to let them reopen unless there's a vaccine or "a miracle". His term is over in March. My guess is she will be jobless before then.

I’m sorry to hear that. Politicians responses to this has been a huge over reaction. Their decisions are destroying people’s careers and livelihood. It’s criminal, IMO, and the antithesis of everything this country used to stand for.

Article says her and son were swimming off pontoon boat. Her without jacket. Kid got back on the boat but she didnt.

Only 2 ways I can think is a bad hamstring cramp...which almost killed me at 17yo while I was a lifeguard...like pulls your heel all the way up to your butt and you cannot straighten your leg out....OR she dove in and hit her head on something.

Hard for a physically fit person to drown in still water. Shes dumb for no jacket. But I have done it thousands of times.

Hamstring cramps can kill you swimming. Hydrate boys...and salt tabs if needed.

If I am swimming around no way I wear a jacket. Doing any type of boating or paddling around and I wear one.

Of course this stems back to me being so small the dang jackets would flip me over so I would be face down.
