Well, you're read the notes, the notes were right twice a day, and now it is time for you to post until the right twice a day cows come home.

So...this happened!  I went downstairs to close my back door, and I found this little creature in my downstairs bathroom!  I ran upstairs and got my phone to take a picture but it moved to a pile of keychains out in the hall:

I was able to safely catch the thing in a glass and put it outside in the grass:

That's the first time that that's ever happened...well, as far as I know. ::)

Geerge, that's some story to start the day. 

Or end your yesterday?

I did not sleep poorly, just not very well.  The stupidest thing I did last year was cancel that sinus surgery because of my leg issues.  I am a bit worried about how much, if any, aggravation this respiratory issue will affect the surgery, which is two weeks from today.

My dad has been asking me to try to get to Florida to heliport with some stuff while he's still mobile and can't places with their helper, but as far as I can tell, they still have some staying-in-place rules for New York visitors.  I feel pretty sure he understands the Covid situation nationally and why NY was harder hit... -

But Im getting the feeling no one I know who lives in Florida actually "feels" the extent of the NYC issue of people putting off any matters unrelated to Covid

This morning I have several physician issues to deal with: I need to call Dr Aronoff and see if my HMO has cleared the surgery; I need to email my podiatrist with an inquiry; and I need to call my HMO with a copay issue.

- Dad's daytime helper from the Holocaust-survivor-help group mentioned that  that while Miami-Dade has/had the various rules and masks and distance, they never really had the degree of shortage of hospital beds that ended up making senior citizens with other health issues not be able to seek treatment.

The medical center my folks use, which  happens to mainly be used by people who have  medicare,  was keeping itself very "virus-free" and clean , and unlike NY was only discouraging patients from going in for other things for a very short time.

I'm surveying the risks involved.  One of the hotels I've stayed at before seem to have nice comments about it shandkling the virus time so far.

And I have an Amazon issue this morning as well: a $19.55 charge on my debit card and  gave no idea what the hell it's for.

I’ve been recalled to work and start tomorrow. We open to the public on Friday with a 50% off sale. It will be crazy but I hope safe

No sleep last night, but I did get to spend a great deal of time studying the ceiling in the dark!

Is that a frog?  Or is that a keychain?

Except, when I click on the camera, it tells me I don't have a camera.

Why would it list a camera, if I don't have one?
