And now, I'm off to bed and will get to sleep in!
Have a good day, all!

Hello
Hi, DR cillaliz!!!
I got a nice email from former DR Ben. He and Anthony are in quiet seclusion in Chelsea. I do wish he would return.

Safe from COVID-19 vibes for Cillaliz’s mom, my mom and all of us.
Another inside day - which is okay.
My brother Kent called and ask me if I had any face masks - I did have a few, so he is coming by to get them today.....

Channel Four Noon News:
CBS4NEWS would like to make a correction. Last night we reported that a worker in the local Ford plant died from the CoronaVirus. It was not a worker at the Ford Plant, it was a worker at the local Chrysler Plant who died. We are sorry.

Today is International Waffle Day, so that’s what we’re having for dinner.
:o Is this the woman who was going to watch the cats for you?
I follow two authors on Facebook. Helen Simonson who wrote "Major Pettigrew's Last Stand" & "The Summer Before the War" posted this today.
My father died Sunday of Covid-19. He had underlying health issues but showed none of the classic virus symptoms in advance. He had NO contact with any confirmed cases. My parents live in a rural French town, not a big city. The virus was spread by asymptomatic folks and untested sick people. The grocery store, the pharmacy, a local cafe or park bench? We will never know how he got it. My mother, who is alone now in a complete lockdown, was happy to see her grandsons warning on social media to take this seriously and isolate wherever you are. I'm passing on this message too, from my mother. Time later to celebrate the life of my wonderful father - time now to make your families safe.
For what it's worth, I don't remember ever hearing about that.
It’s 88 degrees outside. Tomorrow will be 91. Time to get that AC ready.
My cousin just emailed me and she asked me if I remembered anything about a smallpox quarantine when our mothers were young. My grandfather had had smallpox, so he moved to his sister's house and ran errands and delivered groceries to my grandmother, who was stuck inside the house with the seven children.
I don't remember ever hearing about that.
Yes DR JANE I have some masks for myself in a secret drawer in the kitchen.
For what it's worth, I don't remember ever hearing about that.
I think it may have been a family thing, not a national one.

Cillaliz, I just went back and read that youR father died just a few days ago. I’m so sorry. I hope you’re at peace with it. were you able to get together with you family? Or had self-quarantining measures going into effect then? How is your mom handling it?
I had several unpleasant emails this morning. It hurts to know a friend is in serious trouble and refusing to do a thing about it.
Our building effectively has two wings...the entrance is in the center, if you turn right there is one department , if you turn left there’s my department.

Is it the same company or two different ones?
Will you be going in again?
Today's shopping adventure was at Whole Foods. Not crowded, which helped. But a joke! The hot foods counters were closed, the salad bar was closed, no prepared foods at all. The bakery had 1/3 to 1/2 of its usual stock. The sandwich counter was open, but they had only two loaves of bread, both challah. No lettuce. No avocado. The produce aisles were fairly bare, as well, and NO carrots! (I especially wanted carrots.) Many of the shelves of staples were low. I had brought my reusable shopping bags, but was told that I'd have to pack them myself -- the cashier wouldn't touch them, even with gloves on. I don't mind packing them (it was only one), but it seems to be that some of these measures make no sense.
Have any of the officials who are making lockdown decisions actually tried going shopping recently? I support social distancing, but need to find ways to do it sensibly. And we all still need to eat.
Will you be going in again?
As long as I’m healthy and we’re allowed to remain open
Annabelle's tired of my wiping her nose and she's avoiding me. She did eat some dry food out of my hand and that cheered me up.

I am glad she ate. Having a cat with a chronic health issue is exhausting at times. Our Bogie was the sick cat, yet he outlived his sister and the other cat close to his age.

Dad also had dementia. When he started to go, it was quickly, within five days. Mom was with him, holding his hand as he went. The last month he was in a nursing home, which was for the best. Mom, at 92, is too frail for the physical needs of keeping someone else.
She's hale and hearty, for the moment still living in their home by herself. But the loneliness is beginning to get to her, though she understands that being in assisted living is not the answer right now during this scare.

My dad never wanted to go to a nursing home, so we went the in home route. They have a care giver who is there probably 4-5 hours a day and sometimes more. Dad had a VA nurse and then was in hospice the last week. Mom will still have Krista every day and Cory deep cleans twice a month. Mom refuses to leave her house. When the doctor asked what she'd do if she couldn't climb the stairs, she said "Crawl". She still plays bridge and her friends say she doesn't remember much but is still a hell of a bridge player.

Hello
No way I can catch people up on the past few years. Suffice it to say, Callie died two years ago, my sister died unexpectedly the day after Thanksgiving last year at age 65 (Nephew Jon's mom) and my dad died this past Friday the 13th after battling Alzheimer's for the past 10 years. Now we're hoping my 93 year old mother doesn't get the virus.
I gave up immigration law completely about 2 years ago and went back to just doing criminal defense - immigration lawyers quit focusing on helping individuals- which I love to do- and it became totally about political activism even if it wasn't in the client's best interest. I don't believe in that so I quit the field and went back to defending those accused of crimes.
I applied for a judgeship and was one of the finalists and was interviewed by the governor. I didn't get it and that was a godsend. I did plan B and moved to a different office space without another attorney sharing space and without a secretary. It's been fabulous. It's been 2 years totally solo and I love it
UPS has held up the Amazon delivery I expected last night. I hope it arrives today.
Safe from COVID-19 vibes for Cillaliz’s mom, my mom and all of us.
Work vibes for DR George. If needed, can you go online and redirect those packages to your home address?
Work vibes to everyone who needs them.
Today is International Waffle Day, so that’s what we’re having for dinner.
So he wants the virus over by Easter?

Wow. I wonder if there are any movie crews out filming post-apocalyptic movies...now would be the time for that.

That's great! Congrats on your successes!
UPS has held up the Amazon delivery I expected last night. I hope it arrives today.
I normally have packages sent to my work. I don't know if someone is going to be there everyday during the stay-at-home order. Will my packages be sent back to Amazon?? :-\
Work vibes for DR George. If needed, can you go online and redirect those packages to your home address?
I don't know. I'll have to look into that.
I draw up the legal documents for loan closings. In New York mortgage lenders are represented by attorneys, not title companies, and buyers and sellers are likewise represented by attorneys, not real estate agents.

oops, should have read Jane's comment before posting
The CVS at my home office received the prescription refill I needed and were more than happy to send it to the CVS around the corner from me. Trouble is, the nearby CVS didn't want to fill the prescription. Excuse me? They did, finally, and I had to pick it up after 7 p.m. but before they closed at 8.

Why don’t you shift them to a third party address, like a Rite Aid or a Safeway?

I probably could, but can it be done after the fact? That's what I need to find out.

Go into Your Orders at Amazon (NOW) and see whether you can still switch the addresses. I have done it before. If it is too late, they will tell you.
