then we met a friend of Mom's, someone who's been very good to her and was with her and Dad when he died. We had a socially distanced lunch at her house.

While the meatloaf was cooking and the beets were boiling away, I peels and diced a potato and chopped up a parsnip that had been left over. They would be mashed later.

All the while I was trying to avoid news stories on TV, but that seemed to be the only thing worth watching on TV.

After dinner, Mom and I watched some of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, which wasn't all that winning. Zachary Quinto is an idiot.

And we watched 60 Minutes, though not in that order. I liked the interview with Angus King, the independent senator from Maine.

Had the cube steak and baked potato for dinner - too much food today, but that's what happens when I'm in the writing mode. I'll try to be better tomorrow.

A friend told me yesterday that even though I got an extension on my U.S. post office mail hold, the mail man delivered the mail anyway. All piled up by the mail box, except for what could be stuffed in there. Such irresponsibility.

How rude! >:(

Was your friend able to collect your mail?

Yes. He put everything in the house.

Very good :)
