The floor is vacuumed, and now I must weed out cat toys and tchochkes.  A lot of them need to be tossed.

The attorneys have submitted paperwork requesting we be considered an essential business as our clients are all considered essential businesses and they cannot effectively conduct their business without our work but we don’t know when the paperwork will be reviewed and processed or whether we’ll receive approval

Since this happened so quickly and we don’t know how long it will last the bosses don’t even know what they’re going to be able to do for us

They’re hopeful we’ll be allowed to return within the week or that they’ll be able to set up remote access to our computer systems

That would be wonderful. They have blocked all entrance to the main office. Even if you left something important there, you can't get back on campus right now.

We are in an under-10 group size lockdown. What do you all think of that? Is 10 too many? Is 2 or 3 too many?

Ladies and Germs, I just ate the first experimental batch of my homemade corned beef hash and eggs. OMG it’s good. And it will only get better.

So yesterday my "quick" visit to the doctor's office took almost two hours due to really long waits in between each thing. But one nice new thing was accomplished -- I finally got a pneumonia shot.

I'd made a start on that a few years ago when it consisted of two shots, but somehow or other either the doctor's office or the pharmacy or maybe even I, DR ChasSmith, dropped the ball on getting the second of the two. So they said to take the single one now and I can forget about it. It's a one time only thing. The two-shot version might still be for a younger age group, I'm not really certain how that works. But I'm happy to be covered now.

I'm sure this made interesting reading. You're all quite welcome. I mainly thought of posting it because I can feel it in my upper arm this morning. Like a flu shot, it's just a little tender.

There was the original shot and later they came out with the second one.  I am curious what you had.  Were you given something that says the official name?

They didn't give me any paperwork, and I wish I could remember what they called it! I'll post it when I find out.

Thanks.  Your first shot was likely the 1st one I had.

First we had Pneumovax 23 and a year later Prevnar 13.  I found an earlier pneumococcal vaccine called PCV7 (or Prevnar)

I hope you are considered essential.  You certainly have a good argument for it.

I think they gave me halcyon before my dental surgery a few years ago.

Do you think some would help with self-quarantining?

I wouldn't care.

I got a pneumonia shot last week. Just in case I get this virus, it should help keep me from getting pneumonia afterwards.

I finally climbed the Little Ladder and put away the things that needed to be put away.  My neighbor Judy stopped by and we talked about taking care of the cats.  I still have books to shelve before I close the place on Monday morning.

I am not sure that is correct in this situation, but I don't know the rules in New York.  I would go to the website (if you can get on) and check the rules that have been changed for this crisis.  I know in Washington, if your business has been closed temporarily, due to corona virus, employees are eligible to apply for benefits.  It is worth checking!

I never thought I would see the day when people would be watching reruns of old sporting events like golf and basketball.

My, how things have changed in the past week!

A few weeks ago, it was only toilet paper and hand sanitizer that were unavailable. Then paper towels and some staples. I tried to do some online shopping this morning and very, very little was available. I'm not talking about Amazon, either.

And the word of the day is: HALCYON!

I think that is the opposite of what most of us are experiencing.
