September ATC NJ “Knucklehead"

New Jersey has the unwanted distinction of being second only to New York with the highest number of Covid cases and deaths in the USA. We are a tiny-sized state with over 9 million residents and were in very bad shape in March, April, etc.  But Governor Phil Murphy swiftly and completely closed our state down and put us in quarantine with a nightly curfew.. He has been tough and a constant in the fight against this virus - so much so that we are proud to have gone from “worst” to “first” with now having the best numbers and a very low rate of transmission.  When he started carefully and slowly reopening the state, Governor Murphy talked about “knuckleheads” - people who broke the rules, had large parties, etc. In his daily briefings he even had a knucklehead hall of shame.  I got those photos from the internet - the highway sign was real.

What a great layout and wonderful message! One of our states is in such a strict lock-down that they even have a night curfew! The streets of Melbourne are completely devoid of people! It's like an apocalypse! Their covid numbers are rapidly declining but stage 4 will continue for another 3 weeks, making 9 weeks in all. Amazing that around the world, we are all going through various versions of exactly the same thing!

Thank you, Susie.  I forgot that we, too had a curfew for awhile where only essential workers were allowed out after 8pm; it sure was quiet around here.  It IS amazing that world-wide we are all experiencing the same thing. Stay safe.

Marilyn, This is hilarious but a true Covid message!. You really outdid yourself with this one. It should be a commercial for the state. Thank you for this wonderful card to add to this month's ATC Swap.

You have to have a sense of humor right now...I'm glad your governor is strict, but still made us chuckle! Love the stitched border!

I was looking for an "extraction" for a leave some love and happened across this very funny page. Oh, gosh. I hope we never see these days again. I like your blending and the way you layered the signs.

Nice memory of those difficult times. I enjoyed reading about this and like how you designed it.

Wish it would all go away.

Sure do agree with you about that, Barbara.   Wish it would go away.  Thanks for your comments!

I'm still careful, but sometimes it's hard to believe we all actually lived through that.
