Time has it’s own new feel these days, being fast and slow at the same time, with the days sort of blurring together.
Erin - we are big fans of the Vegan8 lentil loaf, too. I’ve been making two at a time and freezing one for later, it is just as good as fresh. I’m glad you commented on the governmental changes happening in your area, my husband is not too happy with how things have been managed here and likes to wax poetic about how wonderful Canada is. Every place has it’s problems, but that universal healthcare is looking mighty nice at a time like this. How has the weather been? Is the snow gone?
Marsha - The gravity of what is going on hits me in waves. The world has certainly changed, and rather quickly. Did you find an online yoga class to watch? You are dead on about the fast strike military operation. No such thing as just popping in the store anymore.
Mark - So nice that you took the time to touch base. You have a lot going on, with school-at-home on top of all the other things going on. To echo Erin, you do an excellent job keeping up with the MWL thread, and it’s a huge undertaking.
Sue - Such a good idea to order those activity books. My eldest daughter loves color-by-number books. I’m not sure this is available in the UK, but we’ve really enjoyed
Colortronic Animals. What kinds of potatoes and tomatoes are you planting?
Glenn - Nice to hear the virtual get-together went well with your family. We have a lot of zoom calls and facetime here as well. Sounds like you are doing a good job of staying active. Have you had a chance to get out in the garden at all?
I’ve been keeping myself busy with more sewing - as of yesterday I have made 118 masks, including 24 that went to a hospital cafeteria where the staff was not given any PPE, since it was all reserved for the health workers. I’ve been working on distributing them mostly to the general public, hoping that if we can avoid getting sick, that reduces the strain on the healthcare system
and keeps people healthy.
Tonight my neighbor hosted an outdoor family movie night, so we all went on the lawns and watched
Onward from a safe distance. It was so nice to get together, even though it was quite chilly and we were all spread out. I am very grateful that sheltering-in-place for us is more of an inconvenience than a true hardship, but it does wear on one after a while.
Wishing you all a great week!
