Did others do the same, or at least wear some kind of mask?

[Laura]

One person made a comment about our wearing masks.

She said she was a PA and noted that it's difficult to wear an N95 for so many hours straight. She appreciated our seriousness about the situation. She was also wearing one.

Very few people wore masks at all.

We did notice that most Asian people wore masks. They seem to understand the concept of protecting the health of the public.

We were lucky that Omicron peaked when it did. Otherwise we would have rescheduled again.

I cut short my participation in visitation.  I had already had lunch with the family at the church, so the visitation is for others to pay their condolences to the family. 

Frankly, I do not require any condolences, but it was very good to see the turnout at the stroke of 3 p.m. My back has been giving me fits and starts all morning.  I have done all the medicating I dare do, and I just needed to sequester myself in a comfy chair where I could sit for as long as I like.

So, I said my goodbyes and headed home.   Now that I am here, I want nothing more than to lie down and nap.

Ah, me.

Other members of the family expressed their thoughts that our last two big get-togethers were for deaths of my aunt and this one for my uncle.  We don't foresee many, if any, opportunities to gather us all together again.

It might happen, but no one is currently stepping up to the plate to make it happen.  This may come, in time, and I'll be happy to help.

I suspected as much.  Supposedly they lifted the mask requirement for vaccinated visitors.  I am sure all those people were vaccinated 

I now feel guilty for not wearing a mask in Asia when I had a cold.

Very lucky.

Duck musings...

Next week is the church spring picnic.

[George]

So, this morning we had a paper tech for The Bold, the Young, and the Murdered.

[George]

Then at noon, we started the first full run with lights and sound...which I just finished (mostly) this morning.

[George]

This is where I sit in the tech deck:

Back to rehearsal!

  a cinnamon roll

Speaking of same, a work colleague just told me the other day that when she was growing up, a traditional school lunch pairing in South Dakota was a cinnamon roll and a bowl of chili.

[singdaw]

Is this the equivalent of using your treadmill as a clothes hanger?

[George]

It's in a good place.

Good.

Just finished act two.  It was a little rougher, but it'll get there.

The NYC Ukrainian chorus, Dumica, opened SNL last night; moving and very beautiful.

I saw that.  It was.

[George]

And now, we're running the show again.

I read that as Fun-Through. So fun-through and run-through vibes for DR George and Company.

[John G.]

I'm almost through with episode three of Peaky Blinders. Don't think I'll put in the second disc. Though it is well acted, the series is cold to the point that I don't care about any of the characters. I don't even feel like putting on the last episode to see how things work out.

Just made a huge crock o' chili. Trying a new (to me) Instant Pot recipe.

[John G.]

I haven't bought an Instant Pot or an air fryer. Or a microwave. Or a mini-waffle maker in the shape of Texas. Or really much of anything kitchen appliance wise since I replaced the electric kettle.

[John G.]

Onward!
