Covid and Other Things


Knock on wood, I haven't gotten Covid 19 or tested positive.   I haven't even been tested.   



It doesn't hurt that I don't go much of anywhere.  Seriously, I don't even go to the mailbox!  Well, I'm not allowed to go to the mailbox because if I went to the mailbox, I might SEE the mail before the Inspector General sees it.  Not that we get good mail in the mailbox anymore.

I get my packages delivered to the porch.  Packages don't need to be inspected, LOL!  The IG sometimes brings them in and puts them on the table.

But the mail, that's a different story.  He'll scan each envelope or card or advertising piece and then sort them.  Yours, mine, yours, yours. MOST of what we get is junk.

I get the ones that say Occupant along with the ones that say Susan and the ones that say Arthur and Susan, so I don't know why they need inspecting.  He gets like one item per month.  Just sayin'...

He goes to the grocery store with lists I make.  I go about once every six or eight weeks, just to see if I can still find things.

And we go to church.  It's very socially distanced, almost everyone wears masks, it's good.  Sometimes I run the slides so we sit in the AV booth.

People I know have been exposed to Covid and not gotten it, but a few have gotten it.  My cousin (in her 80s) got it and passed away due to the complications she also had.  A friend of mine went to the hospital for completely unrelated things and while she was there her son brought Covid home to her husband who had dementia and her husband died of it.  Imagine the grief.  You can't.  She's in rehab now and hasn't been home since he passed away.

Several people I know have gotten it from their grandchildren.  Kids are exposed the most, I think.  Both sides of my family have had kids sent home to quarantine because someone at school tested positive.

Every disaster movie ever filmed started with the government ignoring some science.  Ah well, soon we'll be able to get a vaccine.  Am I the only person who shudders every time they show needles going into arms on TV??  UGH!!

Decoration is happening today.  The Inspector General brought all the boxes in from the garage, and set up the tree.  He stopped for a break.  I wonder if he thinks he's done??  LOL!

Happy holidays, and only two more weeks to Christmas!

Rock on...
