In the morning I went to the local grocery store. The workers must have been working hard. The store had most shelves restocked. Paper products were exceptional. Same as last visit, the shelves were all empty. The good thing is all the workers and customers I passed by were all nice and polite. I saw customers saying thank-you to the workers for working hard to restock items. I am glad people are still civilized in this area.
After the grocery store, I went to the local bank. I had two documents to be notarized. The bank teller was not nice. She pointed out the documents that I created are not exactly of what they have in their manual books so that she cannot notarize them. I used the same document twice before; at the attorney office and at this bank. I think I was just unlucky to have this bank teller. This bank teller didn’t give me any specific information. She told me to look it up by myself. She was not helpful at all. I needed to go back home and did some research on my own and revised the documents as she pointed out. One thing I want to point out about this bank teller. When she asked me to sign the document, I started using my pen, but my pen was out of ink. I asked her to let me borrow her pen. She reluctantly passed me her pen. After I returned the pen to her, she quickly wiped it off thoroughly with Clorox wipes.

I went back to the bank. This time a different bank teller dealt with me. She didn’t have any issues with my revised documents and notarized them.
I went back home and created a Japanese translation of those documents.
My last stop was a post office. I sent out the documents to my dad.

I returned home. While I was revising the document, I pondered about the bank teller. The bank teller probably stressed out from the coronavirus. She might not be originally mean. This stressful environment might have changed her into rude and mean. I hope not many people will react like her.

The state governor decided to extend the school closure until April 10th. My daughter’s school has four weeks school closure including the spring break. The school had a Facebook Live to explain the situation. From upcoming Monday the school bus will deliver a package of breakfast and lunch along with study packet at the bus stop. It will continue throughout school closure. The teacher sent out an email notice of the online study material so that students can study online.
I appreciate everybody who stays calm and nice in this hectic environment. I hope we all will stay being safe and healthy and overcome this new worldwide challenge together.
