Hello all. Thanks for the good wishes for my mom. She's continuing to improve. We had several offers on their lake home and accepted one a couple days ago. She had been using the equity in the lake home to pay expenses, now the loans will be paid off and she'll have enough to carry her expenses for care for at least a couple years. It's a huge relief for all of us. It will close mid July, but we don't foresee any problems. This is very good news as it is amazingly expensive to have 24 hour in home care, but that's where she wants to be - so that's where she'll be!

Congrats on accepting an offer and vibes all goes well.

Thanks. it's really a big deal for the family, both saying goodbye to the lake and knowing mom will have the funds for her care

We are allowed to have all businesses open here. Restaurants are allowed to have 100% capacity. A lot of places are still limiting it. I haven't gone out to eat in so I don't know if they are asking people to wear masks. I've been going to stores, the jail (we talk to our clients through the glass for now as there are covid cases there) and lots of other places. I don't generally wear a mask as I find it's not that hard to socially distance. The numbers here are still going down, of course we had massive testing going on when other places didn't have any

100% capacity, wow. I am also impressed you were able to have massive testing.

Yes, bittersweet. I can appreciate the relief you are feeling.

Oh I was going to add one thing to my Covid stuff. While businesses and restaurants are allowed to be open here.Not all of them are and the only sports going on are high school baseball and softball. Pretty much all events are cancelled for the year, from concerts, to pro baseball to what have you. So there is still caution going on, and some businesses opened and then closed when employees tested positive, so it's been a learning curve

Our two local hospitals set up their own testing very early on. I think that's part of the reason we were leading the country in numbers per capita for so long. Our numbers and hospitalizations are down, so something must be working

One thing that hasn't been cancelled is road construction....don't even get me started. And now they are replacing the elevators in the building I work in. Since I'm on the 6th floor and don't want to chance the one working elevator, I'll be working at home until that's done.

Yes, but the values there have skyrocketed, the taxes alone have gone crazy and the place needs work, I wouldn't use it much and my brother and his wife have decided they would rather travel than spending all the money for taxes and upkeep. Mom and Dad bought it as an investment for their future care, that future is here.

By testing more people it just made your numbers more accurate and hopefully people more careful.

And now, I'm off. My mom called, asking if I could get some sodas to bring in addition to the mini cheesecakes. She said that Fred Meyer is having a sale, so if there's anything in stock at FM, I'll get some, then head to my parents' house. If the Tumwater FM doesn't have any (or enough), I can stop at the Lacey store, which is also on the way.

Be back later.

Well, I got the diet Pepsis at Fred Meyer on sale, and then I hied myself to my parents' house.

Hi, Tom.

We had lasagna and salad for dinner, then my mini cheesecakes for dessert.

Nobody mentions not touching your face anymore.

George · « **Reply #147 on:** June 19, 2020, 11:34:42 PM »

Before dinner, I went to the local WinCo (just up the street from where my parents live) to get some paper plates, and strawberries for the cheesecakes.

TCB · « **Reply #148 on:** June 19, 2020, 11:36:01 PM »

That was the number one “no-no” for a long time.
