I have heard that there is an army contingent in a nearby suburb(not verified). I for one am breathing a sigh of relief. It means that I don't have to refuse to go to lunch with friends because I am a spoilsport and a wuss and a little bit odd.I would love to get out and go to lunch,but I also worry about where this is leading. We have a vast population of poor people living in shanty towns and we need to prevent the virus getting established there. We also have many people compromised with HIV and TB. So I am glad we will all have to comply now. I am selfishly glad you have chickens so I can vicariously enjoy them. I need to go and get some seedlings tomorrow so I will have an outdoor activity in the next few weeks.

We are also having virtual lunches during work, so a group of us eat "together" and can see each other on our screens. Those things are incredibly uplifting to my spirits. I'm so so so happy you guys got baby chicks. My daily visits here are as important as ever. And it is really heartening for me to read how your family is doing this distancing thing - because sometimes I feel like so many people aren't and that's too depressing.

Think I am in the float/flitter category which, considering the world at the moment, it isn't a bad place to be. Suddenly, being an introvert--in what was an extrovert world--stands me in good stead.

And he is a retired teacher.<br /><br />I argue with my dad over the phone every morning because he thinks I am wasting money calling him but we are both relieved that he is living alone at home with friends and neighbours dropping meals by his door and a daily call from a health service. This morning he said, he was very content. That's big coming from him.<br /><br />Be well, Mary Moon, look after our feathered friends for us.<br /><br />Sabinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09015827501648296977noreply@blogger.com
