Quarantine Wednesday April 8th 2020
What makes a good day has changed so much in the last month, but today was a GOOD day. I’ll explain more in a moment. First, though, the outside world. In China, with the zoo closed due to the coronavirus, … Continue reading

Quarantine Tuesday April 7th 2020
I have a confession, but first, let’s look at where the world is at. In Japan, the Prime Minister declared a state of emergency. No more Pokemon Go-ing. In BC, lotto sales are down, which astounds me, I would have … Continue reading

Quarantine Monday April 6th – Shopping!

Time for a walk on the wild side. But first, an update on the world. In Britain, their Prime Minister was admitted to the hospital due to the Coronavirus, and the queen addressed her country. Here or below. It brought … Continue reading

Quarantine Saturday April 4th.
I found something alarming today. However, before we get to that, a quick update. The boys are safe. The-Prettiest-Girl-in-the-World and I are fine. I bounced out of yesterday’s darkness and went looking for humor. In the house, Vegas is snorting … Continue reading

Quarantine Wednesday April 1st
Making it work. Ok, today the boys went to be with their dad. A sad kind-of quiet descended on the house. Vegas the dog wandered around looking for her missing boys, then settled down, a little depressed. The-Prettiest-Girl-in-the-World held it … Continue reading
Quarantine March 31st 2020
Tomorrow, we lose the boys. I guess it’s something a lot of families with shared custody have to endure, but it’s still hard. Likely it was hard on their dad to do without them for 3 weeks, but it’s gonna … Continue reading

Quarantine Monday March 30th.
Today was a day to celebrate the small miracles. Before that, though, let’s take a look outside of our Fortress of Solitude. Parking is now FREE at hospitals. I won’t say it should have been done sooner, but it’s done … Continue reading

How’s everyone doing? We’re fine here. Slow day. For a change, I wanted to talk about what some of my friends and family are doing during this crisis. But first, what’s new in the world. Outside our house, our government … Continue reading
