I've just taken a painkiller. The cortisone wore off last month and the way things are, I don't know when I'll be able to get another injection.
Oh happy day. I was getting used to not being in pain.....

Spirit is crying.
I asked her "Virus?"
She nodded and said "Everything."
She misses her life and her routine.
I don't blame her. I miss it too.

SunLord finally removed himself from my foot so I can now get close enough to the computer to type reasonably well. I've made no headway with getting the pattern. The site won't let me set up a new account, believes I already have one, won't send me a "new" password so I can reset it.
Skywise just called.
He's on his way.
He's working tomorrow.
I'm heading out.

Everyone sleep well, be safe and stay healthy.  Smiley  Smiley

Afternoon.
Back from a lunch run. We can't do most of our usual Saturday routine but at least we can have a "normal" lunch even if it isn't in the usual place.
Skywise made a quick trip into Walmart and found out that the maximum capacity during this time is 1,000. There were only 107 customers in the store at that time so we know about when/what days to come in.
Now to get caught up.

Morning.
Slept in.
I wish the weather would make up its mind. This flip-flopping between warm and cold is for the birds.
Now to get caught up.

Went into town for lunch.
Picked up a few things at Rural King and came home.
We'll get milk and a few other things tomorrow when the store won't be so crowded.

Dr. Fauci stated the obvious today -- that Covid-19 will likely be "seasonal" like the flu. Skywise and I -- having paid attention in science class -- already knew this. It has/will come as a shock to those who didn't pay attention. I told Skywise to brace himself for work tomorrow. His co-workers are already on the verge of meltdown.

The Surgeon General, Jerome Adams, says this will be the "hardest and saddest week of most Americans' lives."
I believe him, especially for those too young to remember 9/11.

Afternoon.
Picked up a few things in town and ate.
Trying to keep things as "normal" as possible for Spirit's sake. The current chaos is really getting to her.
Me too but I'm keeping it together.
I've been getting caught up before I start keeping busy.

The painkillers finally kicked in and I got some things done at the Old House so it will be free for Skywise to use tomorrow. I need to see if I have what I need to continue work on what I was working on today. If not, I'll shift gears and continue another project.

Today both the property tax bills and the propane bills came. Not as bad as we feared but still... on the same day?

Afternoon.
It was nearly 4 am when Skywise got home last night. We went into town to pick up a prescription for one part of my testing supplies, some odds and ends of supplies and had lunch.
Now to get caught up.

Unless Walmart calls and says I have another prescription ready -- test strips -- we shouldn't have to go back for a while. I've been filling in the "nooks and crannies" in my pantry to cut down on trips for something I overlooked when I made out my shopping lists. Now all I have to do is stay on top of my supply lists so I don't run short.

Not gonna watch any government briefings today. Until there's important news -- which will be reported all over -- the briefings are mainly "pep-talks" with Q & A -- which are annoying -- afterward. A new novel arrived today so I'll be reading it and a couple of pandemic preparedness books instead.

This evening's television watching plans shot to hell.
Guess I'll wash dishes instead.

Afternoon.
Found out what happened with the shows I wanted to watch last night.
Someone at the station screwed up and broadcast the CW shows on the wrong channel.  Smiley Smiley

Quiet day so far.
They did some, what I assume is, "preplanting" work on the field across the road.
Other than that, it's been very quiet.
You can mow the grass only so many times and everyone around here, except us 'cause Skywise is working, already has.

Tornado Warning expired.
Severe Thunderstorm Warning still in effect.
Heard a lot of trees breaking out in the woods. We'll check on the damage in the morning.

According to early reports, Mooresville got hammered.
Still waiting to hear about Martinsville, Morgantown and other nearby towns.
