Mod bug is biting hard this weekend. I've probably filled a car-part shopping cart 3 times this weekend before backing out.

I observed social distancing rules while on the golf course. In fact, at the end of the round, we didn't even shake hands.

Not shaking hands at the end of a round is absolutely bizzare.

I had someone at the house giving us an estimate on some work last week. It was comical as we both keep doing the shake/retract thing as we met, then as we parted ways.

It is really weird. People who've met me know that I'm a real hugger. Some are probably relieved to know that I've been following the rules.

You don't require certified persons working on gas installations?
