I am up, fully rested, somewhat restored, and looking forward to a Zoom chat today.

Now...if I could only get dressed.

I would love to give you all an account of what I did yesterday, but...I forget.

Is anyone else playing Wordle? A daily browser word game. You can only play one game per day, so it's not addicting.
https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/

I went there and tried to play.  I don't get how it is supposed to work.  I got one letter on the first row but it was in the wrong place.  What do you do from there?  I tried combos of all remaining letters in the second row and NONE were in the wordle.

So happy to hear Muse Margaret's reactions to the new tome.

Congrats to MR BK.  As Joan Crawford said to William Faulkner when she met him at a Hollywood party and he mentioned that MGM had assigned him to one of her movies:

"Write hard, Mr. Faulkner.  Write hard!"

My sister locked her keys in the unattached garage this morning.  I went over to help her retrieve them....it was not easy.

Finally I used a screwdriver the jimmy the door open.....I have a new profession.

The Men's Long Program for the U.S. Ice Skating Championships are on NBC today at 2 p.m.

I think I will watch them although I don't like a lot of the commentary which is always the same old praise praise praise for some mediocre and inflated ego gentlemen.....

And I have a 4 p.m. ZOOM meeting wherein we will discuss the COVID policy for the upcoming season.  I think it's a bit early - but who am I?  We can plan but I don't think we need to PUBLISH it quite yet.

I am surprised someone in your family didn't have a spare key.

DR Ginny mentioned she got extra bananas in her order.   When I went to Giant supermarket the other day not one banana was to be found.

Reading Klara and the Sun, which I know you didn't overly care for, Jane. My big problem is that it's just not as good as Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me. For being a story told by a machine, it's also overly manipulative.

But since I'm halfway through, I will probably finish it.

I think my tooth is going to be a problem this afternoon. It's starting to plan its attack.

I'm up, I'm up - I can't do much more of this not enough sleep - I know me and I'll get sick and no it won't be Covid and we have the Kritzerland show coming up. I was in bed by three and could not fall asleep. Up at four-thirty, back in bed by five and asleep at some point for maybe five hours. And tomorrow is worse because the handyman is coming early.

I’ve enjoyed a lot of the nationals the past few days.

Bananas were probably pretty scarce at our Kroger after they packed our order Friday afternoon.

I did finish it.  I will be curious to know if you like it less or better after reading to the end.  I haven't read McEwan's book.  I did not like Atonement and never read anything else by him.
