Day 54 I’ve been quiet for a while. A week actually. There just hasn’t been much to report. There still isn’t much to report, but I worry if I put off writing much longer I won’t come back to it at all or at least not for a long time. So here we are. There […]

Day 43 Another Monday. I took a long weekend from writing the blog. I wrote other places, but didn’t really have anything fit for public consumption to say here. The weekend was OK. I made my weekly trip to the grocery store to pick up my order. I even braved another store, while wearing a […]

Day 30 Does anyone else have a ton of leftover ham from Easter? I ordered a small spiral ham on my last Wal-Mart pick up order, but they were out of the one I requested and gave me a much larger one. Ordinarily that would be ok – we would have more than 3 people […]

Today in our neck of the woods – pun intended – we are under severe weather threats. That seems about right. Nothing says Happy Birthday to You like a world-wide […]

Day 4 Hey, it’s Thursday! My child just said she can’t wait to get back to school for P.E. I don’t even know who we are anymore. P.E.???? What is happening? I guess I need to find a ball and start throwing it at her or something. I’m not even sure I have a ball. […]

Day 3 Good Morning! It’s another beautiful day in the forest under government recommended isolation. Actually it is cold and rainy and dreary and gross. We slept in – even the dog until all of 5:45 a.m.!! I, again, was able to go back to sleep after taking him outside. I set an alarm, but […]
