Texas is totally open.. Many places still require you to wear a mask..
Does not mean even after a year of this that I will get used to wearing a mask even for short times.. Can't stand anything on my face...
Therefore I only wear one at times.. Certain places I go to that require it I do comply... But sure if I walk in and nothing is said I don't wear one even tho I have one in my purse just in case..
We have never been locked down here all the way.. They did shut down bars, gyms and limited how many could be in one place at a time, nursing homes visitation was cut off, and only like one could go in the hospital to see patients at a time..
Now all of those places are opened all the way.. And it is up to each business if they want to require a mask or not..
As far as family gatherings my family never stopped having them.. Sorry, I'm going to see my grandkids & my family when I can..
Sounds like heaven, normalcy!!
Me and my kids also see each other as normal. My mother was a bit careful at first as she is in the high risk group.
My stepmother follows the rules so we had to cancel visit (me and my 2 kids). But she did allow her brother and wife to come, which also wasn't allowed...
You know what's daft... having to go to the supermarket for 1 small thing and still having to take a trolley.
I have walked in without twice, hihi.
