Listening to the last of the Shostakovich string quartets. Fifteen of 'em in all.

It has been a long evening.

Jaston Williams was fun, his show was a nice mix of both touching stories and some big belly laughs.

I will try to report more tomorrow when I'm a little less tired.

I came home to make a couple of my tarts, the only ones I'm making this Christmas. I couldn't find the tart pans. I'm sure I have looked at them often in recent weeks, but tonight they were nowhere to be seen.

So, I had to use other pans. Not ideal.

During that, I listened to tonight's version of A Christmas Carol, a 1939 radio version with Lionel Barrymore as Scrooge. It was fun.

I've started on an unabridged audio version of the book, but that's 3 hours long, so I won't finish it tonight.

John G. · « **Reply #98 on:** December 04, 2020, 09:47:01 PM »

And that's about all I've got.

Gratuitous post No. 99!

Listening again to Irrelohe by Schreker - it's very wonderful.

Your delicious tarts, yum. What flavor did you make?

I bought a new dehumidifier from Amazon

vixmom · « **Reply #104 on:** December 04, 2020, 10:20:17 PM »

It was delivered today

vixmom · « **Reply #105 on:** December 04, 2020, 10:20:58 PM »

It is extremely heavy I had a difficult time getting it into the house from the front steps

vixmom · « **Reply #106 on:** December 04, 2020, 10:21:18 PM »

And the postman left it right outside the door to make it easy

Vixdad’s arms are still so painful that he cannot lift anything

I have no idea how we’ll get it to the basement

vixmom · « **Reply #109 on:** December 04, 2020, 10:23:41 PM »

The old one was overheating

vixmom · « **Reply #110 on:** December 04, 2020, 10:24:02 PM »

Once it melted the extension cord I knew it had to go

DR Jennifer it will be interesting to see how Canada distributes the vaccine.

I think it is going in terms of priority. I'm not sure if every province is different. But I think here it will be seniors homes, people 80+ and health care workers first.

Also Christmas visits that were announced a few weeks ago are now cancelled. So no visiting other homes

Canadians seems to be taking better precautions and you have far fewer cases than we do. I suspect you will be able to cover your health care workers in the first round.

I think part of the credit goes to the Canadian leadership, compared to our lack of leadership.

I checked two stores for hydrogen peroxide. None to be found. The drug store told me they can't get it. There was an article a week or so ago about mouthwash killing the Covid virus. I suspect that's what prompted the sell-out. Whoda thunk it?

Jean Harlow would be extremely upset!

RIP Pamela Tiffin, 78

I am sorry to hear of her passing, but I always found her acting skills to be lacking.

Oh, by the way John, I stopped by this evening, but you were out. I didn’t think you would mind if I borrowed your tart pans.
