So, it's like day 4,732,356 of the Quarantimes, isn't it? I don't know, I have lost count. I'm lucky if I can remember what day of the week it is. Who am I kidding? Most days, I have to look at the day/date on the computer to know. Are they running together for you, too? … Continue reading Monday Musings: Rain, Rain, Go Away
After snow two days last week, a bit of warmer weather has returned. The dogwood in front of our townhouse is blooming nicely, and the daffodils are blooming. Let's hope it stays around this time! We are still under the stay at home restrictions due the COVID-19 pandemic. I realize people are getting antsy and … Continue reading Monday Musings: It’s Spring Again!
I'm 65. Funny, it doesn't feel much different than 64. And even under the coronavirus (or coybote virus, as Lambeau sees it) restrictions, it won't be different than any other birthday. The BaldMan made my birthday dinner on Sunday. (Scampi, if you are interested.) Since his birthday is at the end of the week, and … Continue reading And Just Like That-
Another week, and we are still on lockdown. Most of the medical experts are saying that, here in the US, we should hit the surge for the COVID-19 infections in the next two weeks. We are being strongly urged to stay even more isolated than before. Which means the recommendation right now is that, for … Continue reading Monday Musings: Checkin’ In
So, it seems we are to be under restrictions until at least the end of April. Don't misunderstand, I am fully in favor of this. I also understand (and to some extent, am pretty sure) that's not even long enough. Our governor here in MA said today that predictions are that the confirmed cases of … Continue reading Monday Musings: Goin’ Nowhere
Lots of people are talking about the pandemic, what we are doing, what we aren't doing, and how we can get through this and come out on the other side- well, maybe a little bit better in some ways. I'm going to put links to two things I read in the last few days that … Continue reading A Couple Things I Found
Like pretty much everyone, we are under the shadow of the COVID-19 virus. We are fine here, but we are following the recommendations to stay at home as much as is possible, limit contact with other people, washing hands, and practicing social distancing. I know it's what has to be done, but it all feels … Continue reading Monday Musings: Behind Closed Doors
I have been a bit MIA here lately. I know. I am sorry. It was "stuff" and we all know how that goes. A week ago last Thursday, I had to take the BaldMan to the emergency room for another bout of cellulitis in his leg. This time, the right one. The others have been … Continue reading Monday Musings: Life, the Universe, and, Oh, Boy, Everything
February is the worst month, as far as I am concerned. It seems to go on forever. It's often cold, but you know the warm weather is not far off and that just makes it seem colder. Many February days are gloomy, cloudy, and gray. Makes me want to just nap through the whole month, … Continue reading Whatever Wednesday: Random Stuff Around Here
(Those of you not in the USA or who are not football fans can skip the first paragraph.) This was kind of a weird weekend. We didn't watch any football on Sunday. It was the Pro Bowl, and honestly, we gave up watching that one a few years ago. It's just a big media foofra … Continue reading Monday Musings: Games, Poke, a Groundhog, Writing, and a Book for You
