Day Seven


Went to park, to rose garden, yesterday. Took this beautiful, lovely, stunning shot. No thought at all of transmission of microbes but there you are.

Spending a lot I time online. Processing pictures too. Sure do miss going for coffee and the gym. Got tub, I should say.

Made appointment with doctor. Relieved. Hope all well.



Out this afternoon. Cloudplay on the mountain. Pretty good. Got tired of processing. No feedback on FB. 😐

Day Six


Missed the deadline completely.
All I have is a laugh, however inappropriate.
I'm OK for toilet paper. All is well. Here.
Elsewhere is horrific. God help us. Please.

Day Five


Missed the deadline! Nevertheless, life goes on despite terrible times in Italy. Much controversy regarding how they became so vulnerable. Absurd, really. They imported Chinese labor to assemble such as handbags so the 'Made in Italy' tag could maintain a luxurious price. Gucci, etc. Several hundred thousand in Lombardy, many of whom went back to Wuhan for New Year's celebration. Most unfortunate consequences.

Got the oleanders trimmed. First bloom presented. Need to fix the gates. Right now, feel like ham and eggs. Have been reading this. Headed that way presently.

They're streaming church services later. Good for us.

Day Four


Up before dawn. Here, just prior to sunburst.
Praised God for the glory. Sublimely beautiful.

On the way home, stopped to light a candle.
Closed. Yet did not curse the darkness. Amen.

Day Three


Libraries are closed. Intended to go and then get picture of sunset. At equinox. Managed the latter. Just.

Home all day otherwise. Going to make medical appointment tomorrow. Have still been procrastinating.

The pope says we should reconnect with our families. I'm going to light a candle. Tomorrow. Hope to get up for sunrise. Equinox. Spring is here. They say viral viability diminishes with hotter temperatures. We can do that.

Day Two


Slept most of the day. Got out to store at midnight.
Just making a perfunctory entry. Very bored.

Some, not much, online activity. Good enough.
Find myself wishing for companionship mostly.

Day One


Quarantine. Corona virus. COVID-19. Upon us.

There's a silly argument going on as to whether it should be termed Wuhan virus. Castigations of racism. Absurd.

Things are very serious and I am staying home; for most part. Went out briefly for bay leaf for my corner breed in the crock pot. Might even take a ride into boonies tomorrow.

Presented is my survival rate of last resort. 😆 Need some banana! Pretty well stocked up. The grocery stores are stressed more than anything. Toilet paper the notorious item in demand. 

I think of the family. They haven't checked on me and what am I to do, having been ostracized? What a sorry situation.

Oh... happy St. Patrick's Day. Made delicious corned beef with the trimmings. Really good and plenty full.

So, the day done. Miss the amenities of getting out; spa closed, avoiding crowds. Fifteen days of this ahead.
