Today was an easy day of lockdown. Mostly because the sun was out. And, it was warmish.
Always a good sign to see the sun(s) come up.
Early this morning, I escaped from the Asylum and went for my normal walk. Didn’t see anyone on the sidewalk.
Seems like the residents of my floor knocked off another 1.75 liters of gin. Good Job Neighbors!
We still get mail and packages. Lots of packages. Did I mention that I ordered 2 boxes of Altoids from Amazon. Sort of ashamed of myself for that.
And, this afternoon, I found my very first insect of the year.
So, when the weather is OK. And as long as I can go outside. I am OK with this lockdown thing. When the weather isn’t OK, not so much. When we get locked in our rooms. That will be challenging. A bridge to cross when I get to it.
Tenderloin of beef, baby potatoes, broccoli, lemon meringue pie plus free wine on tap for our box-o-dinner tonight. I think that it is prudent to have maybe 2 weeks of food in the room. For “just in case”. I put in some supplies when I got back from Hawai’i. But, that was just sort of lunch stuff. For that last week or so, I have sort of been in squirrel mode. Saving the soup from one meal. A roll from another. If I am locked in my room 1000 calories per day will keep me alive fine. As long as the coffee holds out.
The Asylum stopped taking admissions to our nursing unit several weeks ago and they are now trying to clear out one of four wings to use as an isolation unit.
Nobody thinks that this is anywhere near over. I should be scared. But, I am not. YET.
