Precautious?

And I thought I had made up a new word!

Precautious is an adjective that means being careful by actively preparing to avoid something negative. It can refer to a person or an action.

This speaks to me as we venture out that little bit more. On a necessary car trip yesterday I noticed how the car had a car smell. I’d not been out in one since March 14th! Not been out of the valley since then. Not been shopping or to a medical or dental appointment or….well, just not been anywhere except here.
