How to survive the pandemic

May 16, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

Cook a lot and eat a lot   Walk a lot, and wear a mask when you go in places   Think very hard about other creative projects and do them sometimes. Once in awhile get rid of old junk. These ladders belonged to John & Al’s dad, Jeff. I kind of inherited them when … [Read more…]

The Days All Run Together

May 9, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

So many dinners, and meals, and cleaning up – that I’m not taking pictures of – so many walks – that I’m not taking pictures of – so many online meetings – that I do have a few pictures of. Collections of (mostly) old people on zoom. I left off last Saturday when I baked … [Read more…]

Feeling a little more optimistic

May 2, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

This week I’ve been feeling a little more optimistic that we’re going to come out of this thing OK. Different, but OK. I’ve actually seen a new, not exactly meme, but thought that more than one person is expressing, that we don’t want to get back to normal, we want to get back to better. … [Read more…]

There’s nice light in quarantine

Deep in quarantine

April 23, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

Mark has a pretty regular schedule for being retired in pandemic. He gets up, does chores – makes the bed, opens the curtains, scoops the cat litter, while brushing his teeth.

I think there’s a story here

April 18, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

Let’s go day by day. On Wednesday my next door neighbors got a new furnace and air conditioner installed. The air conditioner unit is in between our houses, where it’s still a muddy trench from the garage construction – the landscapers aren’t able to schedule our reconstruction work as yet due to the pandemic. Only … [Read more…]

On and on

April 14, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

So lets see, where did we leave off? looks like last Wednesday. I, like everyone else, have been cooking a lot, but un-like myself, have not been taking many pictures of the food.

Trifle for breakfast

April 8, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

Monday, 3rd, no I guess 4th, week of safer at home. It didn’t feel much like a Monday. I was late getting out for my walk – I didn’t leave the house till after 8:00 a.m. – but I was still able to walk right down the middle of N. Allen St. at 8:30 am., … [Read more…]

Waiting for the worst to come

April 2, 2020 by ds83473@gmail.com

So, food and pictures – what else can we do? Thursday I roasted a chicken and we ate chicken and mashed potatoes and peas with mushrooms & caramelized onions for dinner. Still using those onions from the pandemic risotto. I guess I left off in my last post right when I was putting the chicken … [Read more…]
