Started out my first day of semi-lockdown by making a 2do list. Gotta have a plan to get through the day.
And task number one was: Try not to be an assholebitch. That isn’t going to be easy but I think it should be my prime objective everyday for the duration.
I did escape the friendly confines of The Asylum this morning for a walk. I declared it “absolutely necessary”. Upon my return I turned myself into the nurse and she said I was free to come back inside. I only encountered one person on the sidewalk. And we quickly scuttled past each other. But, I did see an ambulance en route to The Asylum. We are very attuned to the comings and goings of ambulances. Now more than ever.
Yesterday I reported seeing the cases of Dinty Moore Stew and canned corned beef hash coming into the geedunk. Today, the offerings were on display.
(Sorry, those of you who were not in the military, especially the Navy, so read about geedunk.) Most of these items would have been right at home in the well stocked bomb shelter of the 1950s. (If we had microwaves.)
That is it from The Asylum. Stay tuned. And stay sane.

Peggy – I had to laugh seeing the contents of the fallout shelter. The last day my library was open, one of my staff members took the Life and Chutes and Ladders games home to help survive the 2020 virus lockdown. We keep the games (and many other puzzles etc.) as stress reducing/comfort games for students in the McConnell Lounge where the vending machines are. Sometimes we get kids in the library, so the games can keep them occupied while their parents do their research.
And I am sure that the block of Velveeta cheese is still good!
