I am moving quite slowly this morning. I stayed in bed about 45 minutes longer than usual, because I was feeling lazy. I'm in a much better mood this weekend than I was most of last week, and Im very very happy7 to report it.

What a crazy damned weekend.

Last trip to the mail room today!

It's been a good run - for me, at least. I say it that way because out of everyone in the mail room, I'm the one who really loves the material, and my first opportunity to learn and play Mr. Loesser's notes has been most gratifying.

Happy Sunday!  There's a new Broadway Radio Show for your listening pleasure.  I had a wonderful conversation with singer Spencer Day about his new album of all show tunes.  It was a fun and interesting chat and his new album, Broadway By Day, is terrific!  Give it a listen:

My phone rang at 8:30 a.m., and I grimaced as I got out of bed -- only to find out that I could get out without much pain at all.

I am not healed, but it is easier today than it has been.

A guy recommended to me by family members stopped by shortly after 10 a.m. to survey my house exterior to see what needs to be done to scrape, sand, and repaint all the wood trim.  It's a big job, but he seems reliable.  Gave me a written estimate.  He works alone, so it will take some time.  I just need to get this started.

It's almost too much to think about.

Some of the photos show carriers, and perhaps in some cases the pet owner never thought he or she would need one or maybe could not afford one.

REPORTED YESTERDAY:

After 728 days, or two days shy of exactly two years, Indiana no longer is operating under a governor-declared statewide public health emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gov. Eric Holcomb on Thursday signed into law House Enrolled Act 1001, which includes the components the Republican said needed to be written into statute for him to immediately terminate his executive order identifying the coronavirus as an ongoing threat to the health of Hoosiers, and bring to a close an unprecedented period in the state's history.

Among other provisions, the new law enables Indiana to still receive enhanced health care and food assistance funding from the federal government, and authorizes voluntary administration of the pediatric COVID-19 vaccine to children ages 5 to 11.

Lawmakers also are advancing a separate proposal allowing out-of-state medical personnel to continue working at Indiana health facilities.

She was killed yesterday, just outside Kiev, as she delivered supplies of animal food to a dog shelter that was without food for 3 days
The car she was in was shot by Russians.

Yalanskaya stayed behind in Kiev to volunteer as everyone fled around her .  She was 26.

I hope other states follow Indiana's lead. As I've repeatedly said, we never hear about the positive news from the media, but let there be a spike of ten cases, then fear and panic all over again. Cases are down to the lowest they've ever been from what I understand. There is no need to carry this on as we're about to enter year three of it. Everyone can do what they feel comfortable doing in terms of masking and whatever else makes them comfortable.

This afternoon, I saw an original children's musical written by an acquaintance of mine: The Dragon that Liked to Spit Fire.

Sounds like fun. Was it?

I have a slight fever. Just wondering if it's the aftermath of the Hep 2 vaccine.

Apparently it is based on a children's book about the importance of leaning in to your uniqueness.

I had to read that twice. Instead of uniqueness, I scanned underpants. I don't lean into mine. And I don't know where my eyes were.

For Audra fans. She sings a little of I Am What I Am in the beginning. Halfway through, she does a nice version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

I had a nice day, all things said.

Great lunch of BBQ chicken and pleasant company.  Didn't stay too long.  Got home by 1:37 p.m. and joined a Zoom session that lasted until 3 or so.

The guy who is going to paint my house called and told me he found a guy who would completely re-screen my back porch.  That sealed the deal that today was a very good day!

I will be getting up in the morning and going to my chiropractor.  Despite my morning optimism about feeling a bit spryer, the tweak acted up in church and has stayed prominent all day.  I can still walk upright, but I feel every step.

An adjustment of some sort is needed.  Perhaps it's mental.  But I am taking no chances.

I watched a three-part mini-series on Amazon Prime this evening.

Agatha Christie's "Ordeal of Innocence".  Nicely done.

Okay, 12 episodes into season 5 of Riverdale. No high school musical yet, but there was a drug-fueled version of Walking in Space from Hair. Quite a lot of fun.

I think the whole play is almost a Carol Burnett sketch.

I made it to church and back safely this morning, but there were SO many spinouts and cars in ditches all around us.

Yikes! :o Glad you were safe, Singdaw!
