I don't think I've even slept an hour - really struggling with either acid reflux or something not agreeing with me - you know how it feels like you're gonna throw up - you don't, but you get that yucky burning stuff in your throat, which is happening right now.

Maybe you're in love?

As it has been written, this virus is like STDs without at least having had the fun part.

Freddie, ask me no questions, and I won’t bore you with a lack of details.

Tuesday morning greetings!  It's been a busy day already.  We picked up this week's Kroger order and put away our purchases.  I'm now at my computer, ready to attend my noon book discussion.

I never even heard of that one! (Have we talked about it here?) But I'll certainly check it out.

Sad news today, for those who liked or loved the works of children's author Tomie dePaola. He died yesterday, apparently from compilations following surgery after a fall.

It's so weird how I learned this, not ten minutes after coming across the files containing my materials for the show we did with him and Mother Dolores Hart at the Abbey a few summers ago. He was so nice to get to know for a few days, and we all had a fine time putting that show (a play with music) together.

I was literally just transferring a bunch of files from one drive to another, saw the folder containing my materials, and hadn't thought about that in a couple of years. A few minutes later, someone told me he died.

Well, the book discussion was great.  There were only 5 of us, but it was so-o-o-o nice to see friends' faces!  We even had someone new.

Now I'm off for some lunch.

He says it is frustrating that once in a while, there are people who do not respect the six-feet-rule (or I guess even the two-feet rule, if there was one) and follow too closely even when it's mentioned.    This happened when he was entering the building at one point Monday.

At your building, that is exceptionally annoying.  I am glad Skip is improving.

Good vibes!

Senior Shopping was not as crowded today. 

I bought some bananas, ground beef [meatloaf is in the oven], cookies, TP for my sister, cookies, ice cream sandwiches, Lysol disinfectant spray.....and a few other things.....

I had wine in my cart....but it could not be purchased until 7:01 a.m. so it was left behind in the checkout stand orphan bin.....

Same here on the crowds.  It is still stressful.

No disinfectant, not that I can tolerate Lysol spray.  We got a 4 pack of TP and a 2 pack of paper towels.  I purchased a small coffee ice cream but they are still out of vanilla bean.

I take it back, they did have clorox toilet cleaner.

On the way home from Safeway, where we did get most of what we wanted, we stopped at Fred Meyer.  It too had fewer people today.  No santitizers of any kind.  I did get my eye drops and now don't have to worry about a delay in my delivery.  They didn't have any cleaning products we wanted.

DR Jeanne, both stores had Method hand soap.  Only Safeway had the foam, however, it they didn't have the coconut scent I like.  We picked up a different scent.  I think I will have Keith use it since he doesn't care.

I am surprised wine could not be purchased at that early hour.

I had seen he died but not what the cause was. :(

Today’s Weill is Johnny Johnson. I never miss a Burgess Meredith musical.
