Amen! We are lucky people. :)

Greetings All

Insanity has definitely gripped the world. TP is going bye bye as are wipes and sanitizer. But we have a good supply and alcohol. For once I am glad for DH hoarding behavior.

Today I took bananas to the gathering of the homeless people at the little church. They did not have it in the main fellowship area but had it around the back of the church. I think they did not want people coming in the entrance and in the back is where kitchen and bathrooms are. It had poured rain earlier and I felt so bad for these poor people who have to live out in it. They were grateful for bananas and save them for later. What do you do if you have no shelter and its sleeting? Breaks my heart.

But at least we got our new roof on yesterday and it seems good. Two hours after they finished and it was pouring rain. So I guess its a good job. I was most worried about color but its good.

Today I was especially anxious and wanted to eat all day. Mostly did popcorn. Our internet was down for several hours and that makes me as edgy as anything. I meant to go to pool for ritual submersion but didn't make it. Tomorrow I hope.

Ann that dinner sounds fabulous. What fine friends you have. My fancy cooking days are over but there are restaurants!

Not much else. Wishing everyone adequate toilet paper supply. One pundit says just go to CVS and buy a pack of gum and they will print out a 20 foot long receipt with coupons that will work as TP. LOL

LOL! The CVS receipt joke is funny. And it is almost the truth. ;)

We went to see Emma tonight. As promised the theater had plenty of room for spacing, there were 6 of us. We had free passes, but we will use them another day. It's a local chain, with 6 locations, and we thought they might need the ticket revenue. We wiped our seats and arm rests with clorax wipes, and then purelled our hands. We washed again before we left, and when we got home. In the car, I recounted for my husband about seeing pictures from Italy, hearses pulling into church parking lots, and Priests coming out to bless the coffin in the back. That's it, no mass. And I started to weep as I told him. I was surprised. Where did this come from? I expect there will be these moments of some kind of grief, empathy for others, and also for the loss (temporary?), of life as we know it....
