I woke up, watched church and went back to bed. I'm now up again.

I'm headed out shortly for a training session to be an usher in this pandemic times.

I will have my temperature taken before allowed admittance. I know we're going to do that for the audience.

What other thrills lie in store I have no idea.

But I am set to usher for two events next weekend. One is a free showing of the movie, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. The other is also free and features a local chamber music group.

I think the word free is a way to get people out.

Back from my weekly (or so) trip to Shop Rite, where I went to pick up 6 or 7 things and returned with 21 or 22.

Gas at BJs and Costco is up from the $1.69 of the past couple of weeks to $1.71.

I'm up, I'm up - eight hours of sleep.

I watched PBS and dozed a bit. I finallty decided to go ahead and try a bath. It seemed to go okay, thank God, and I'm grateful to have come through it so well. I'm now waiting to hear from Suad about this week's unemployment.

Ours is up largely to anywhere from $1.49 to $1.61.

Back from the training session. I don't think the theater is ready. They lacked answers to some very basic questions.

John G. · « **Reply #44 on:** June 07, 2020, 12:47:57 PM »

But it's still opening Friday, so we'll see.

Chas, did the danish arrive?

DR Iris · « **Reply #46 on:** June 07, 2020, 12:52:30 PM »

‘Cause I sent Viggo Mortensen over.

DR Iris · « **Reply #47 on:** June 07, 2020, 01:06:26 PM »

Bruce, “Three Acts” is beautiful.
I wouldn’t be able to get through it without sobbing.

So, it’s a good thing that YOU sang it!

Started Enchanted April. The day just felt right for that. I love this movie.

Picked up a package and envelope from yesterday. Tried to order from Hugo's but suddenly DoorDash is trying to add a delivery charge and full fees. I'm being told that they're not part of DashPass' free delivery. I told them I've ordered from there five times, including four days ago, and it's always been half fees and free delivery. I told them to cancel my DashPass instantly. It's paid through 6/24 and by then I'll be able to eat in restaurants. I ordered from Stanley's instead.

Dreadful customer service.

I went outside while I was still standing straight and finished up some yard work for the compost folks to pick up in the morning. Slowly, some work is getting done. So much left, but it's 95 or so outside right now.

Stanley's was excellent - my favorite pasta dish.

Latest Facebook idiocy:

FREE HORSES!!!! 52 thoroughbred horses need homes. Will go to Sugarcreek this Sat. for slaughter. Gentleman died due to COVID-19 and his son wants nothing to do with them. Most broodmares are broke and some are in foal weanling, yearlings, 2 yrs. and 3 yrs. old most are gelded. FREE and papered. Friend of the deceased is trying to find homes.(732) 618 8243 Fairhill, Md.
Please copy and paste this on your status
I would hate to see all these horses put down. PLEASE someone help they are FREE and papered!!!!!!!!
A friend of mine posted this.

The "copy and paste on your status" should be the clue, but isn't, since everyone is doing just that. Five seconds on Google will tell you this story is from 2011 and that the Covid-19 is some jerk trying to make it seem current to get people to share it. Facebook is astonishing and not in a good way.

I just checked my mail. Nothing from Kritzerland (sob!)

Somehow I ended up with a Japanese children's movie called Jellyfish Eyes. So, I put it on, and it's quite wonderful. Very strange and beautiful. It should be over before the show later.

Back from my friends' house. This is the second Sunday in a row. I think we social-distanced well. Luckily, the weather was beautiful--not humid. Nice breeze. Unusual for June.

KevinH · « **Reply #59 on:** June 07, 2020, 04:06:54 PM »

Looking forward to the Krizterland show tonight!
