description: This pandemic has caused a great deal of hardship on my part. I don't understand how golf courses can be open, but you cannot go camping. Yet bear and turkey hunting is open, and most hunters camp out. I fall into a gray area being a small business and having no employees. The government wants to bail out big companies, and they want to pay unemployment to workers that are not able to work, and they say that they're going to help bail out small businesses but they aren't . The Payroll Protection Plan (as well as the EIDL) is for mainly payroll, I am a one-woman show. So no payroll, no payroll loans. How do I apply for these grants and loans? This is something even the Vice President of my bank could not answer. Covid 19 also deeply affected my teenage daughter who attends Sentinel high school. There was no back-up plan for this pandemic, and the teachers are not on the same page as to how to teach classes and deliver homework assignments. One teacher will do it one way, and another teacher will do it another. which makes it very confusing for students. Another troubling issue is that my neighbors do not think the six foot rule is necessary and they don't respect the stay-at-home request from the governor. So the children in the neighborhood all play together and are around my property and touching my things and my vehicles and my porch which cross contaminates my items. I asked the Missoula law enforcement to intervene and they said they could not do anything unless martial law is declared, in the meantime I should have my landlord intervene. And guess what? My landlord did not intervene. My daughter and I are both high risk, so it has been very scary for us. With a constant regime of wiping down surfaces and outside items before touching. So although we may learn from this and put forth some effort into better systems right now living in the midst of it really sucks.This is very informational for future people because once they look back they can see the mistakes that they made and learn from them.
