Been a long time but I have been busy. We are cleaning out our garage and getting rid of a lot of stuff.
Michele- I was sorry to read Vince has been in the hospital. I hope he is recovering and feeling better.
My theory on this time is to breathe and take it one day at a time. In many ways our routine e hasn’t changed a lot except for the social events.
Stay safe my friends.

@SHARON i am not big on conspiracy theories either, but it stands to reason that as some entrepreneurs, artists, etc; will take advantage of the current(or any) situation, so too will some politicians.
DRONES purchases for INTERNAL SURVEILLANCE is here at 1-2 min in the English language video in English language press for France.

Michele - JR has become afraid of the grass y dirt since he saw cat poop in it from the Ferrell cats. He hates to get dirty he hates being stinky. Daughter was the opposite she lived dirt! She was always jumping into a pond in her Sunday dress 👗, foot ball 🏈 covered in mud in her Sunday Best, in the hen house chasing them,rough housing with the dog 🐕 both muddy (baths were a constant she’d shake off the dog too back into the dirt they went),y she climbed trees so pants got holes regularly. JRs just not into that. I thought he would be but he isn’t. I’m not planting this year too much work getting the community okay for even our flag let alone plants. Their so picky. HOA nuts 🥜.
Ordered a new curtain rod hubby showering so much the rods giving out the thin curtain liner just not scrubbing clean! Darn cheap thing last thing I need is my nice thick beautiful plain brown cloth shower curtain getting stains! I like plain curtains but lately their all hippie prints (Boho the kids call it). I like hippie prints on my shirt or scarf not my bathroom 🚽.
More grocery links (had to make my total $35 for free shipping so got what’s needed for the following week)

Here is a very reliable press video in English : see from 1min to 2 min in video. You see drone use in Paris and police and people responding. I have not seen any thank god, but they are there.

I don't think we have drones here yet, but definitely helicopters. They're doing most of their surveillance in the NW but will fly up and down beach areas on weekends, in particular.

Margaret,
I like your book choices. ❤️I think that good books build skill and good minds.🌺2 -
@Luckee_me
Sorry I must have missed your name, but your doggies are lovely; Cinder & Lucy, such great doggie names!
These are my pups; the two brown Yorkies are still alive. They are Mabel and Molly, full sisters but from different litters, so Mabel (the lightest one with the broader face) is 3 years older than Molly.
Bailey is the white Coton, and Farley is the black Yorkie mix. They are both in doggie heaven.Mabel

Finally caught up so many pages. Loved all pics pets, plants and vistas.Made chicken soup in the soup maker it is ok will need a few tweaks next time
No end to lockdown yet it’s definitely getting to me I flit from one thing to another jigsaw, knitting, crosswords.
It is psychological I know because I don’t go out a lot in ‘normal’ times
Need to get a grip and realise I am lucky I’m not on my own, have a garden, have my health and can go for walks unlike people who either can’t get because of disability or fear of CV
Started watching CH4 news because BBC just giving us government line not always helpful
Stay well and safe

Can I add a link to YouTube video on here.

Kate I do it all the time. When you post the link, the video actually appears, so there isn't a link in your post.1

Those guys might be worried about the bottom line of the urgent care they own…

Very interesting Kate UK. Not a lot of compassion for the vulnerable, (every death is someone's loved one) but I have been saying something similar to them since the beginning. We oldies and vulnerable should have been shut away for months in total isolation and let everyone else get on with it. Actually I am pretty sure I would survive. I wanted to get it early on, but was worried about DH. I'm a great believer in dirt and germs. Most of them are our friends. I think though, that we as a population would not have complied with singling out people for complete isolation at the beginning, it makes a lot of sense now we know more about the virus. The care home figures are very bad.
I do think that we have to proceed very carefully in loosening the restrictions to avoid a surge in deaths among the old and vulnerable.
Let's hope we can manage it well as we proceed towards coming out of lockdown.
I am reading a very good book at the moment on our immune systems. So much we can do to increase our immunity, but, unfortunately, there is not much we can do about extreme old age.
But we all have to die, that is for sure.

Did anybody else read the Nat Geo article about face mites? I can't stop scratching now!

Lisa wish you’d reconsider and repost the work rant. How could I have forgotten Heinlein’s juveniles? Thanks!
Rita that looks almost like a white “evening primrose” Oenothera macrocarpa http://thesprucery.com/flowers/perennials/d-f/evening-primrose/ Don’t recognize the others.
Carol, YES to the Secret Garden.
Julie, Sharon et al: Conspiracy theories, drones in China ordering people to put on their masks and go home, all very Big Brotherish. Was it Benjamin Franklin that cautioned us that sacrificing liberty for security leaves us with neither?
Lanette “home made mask ideas”
The dogs, Joe and I were so antsy yesterday that despite the rain we all piled into the van and went out. First we strolled on the sidewalk along the closed community college. Next we dropped off the gluten free cookies at my friend’s doorstep. She came to the doorway and we chatted. I confessed to breaking my “only into town once a week” rule, and was feeling gleefully guilty. Then we drove to the post office to drop an envelope in the drop box on the way to the port. Found a beach that isn’t closed, but it’s a small beach with limited access and might be hard to maintain social distance if the weather were nice. By the time we got home we were soaked so Joe built a fire in the wood stove and we all snoozed the rest of the day away.
Lighter, lovelies!
