These Trying Times

We hope you are all doing well considering the circumstances. Who would have guessed last Thanksgiving and Christmas that we would be in this mess mere months later? We finally ventured out last Tuesday after 14 days of self-isolation. We had to, we were out of a number of things, not the least of which was ice cream! (I know, I know, first world problems...) While P and I are retired and have no real reason to venture out, step-son S is still working. if only four days a week. Luckily he's left pretty much alone working swing shift on a machine not near other workers. He can keep his distance without too much trouble. It's a good thing. It reduces the likelihood that he will bring home "strange bugs". As both P and I are in the High Risk group with our age and my diabetes, we are taking all reasonable precautions. How long our sanity will hold out remains to be seen. Lots of streaming, lots of surfing. I think it's time to do some deep cleaning. We bought the house brand new and still haven't finished unpacking everything. So what if it's been 3.5 years, these things take time!
