Between yesterday and today I made another 15 face masks. I had planned on rejoining the quilt guild here in The Villages. Kind of glad I didn't get a chance to before all this craziness started. I just heard a rumor that they received a request for 2000 face masks. YIKES! Don't get me wrong I've been glad I've had the ability and the means to make the masks I have, but like I've said before I really don't do well with repetitive sewing. It becomes a real chore.
So what else did I do today???? Well I'm working a lot of Sudoku puzzles and even venturing out into the world of other more challenging (for me) puzzles using a grocery store puzzle book. Some a am fairly good at others I find totally frustrating. One thing I discovered is it is good to hold on to things even when not regularly using them. It's been a while since I have done anything with this booklet. Check out the date.
Yes, I've had this for awhile. I remember cleaning out the magazine rack several timesover the years, thinking I should through it out. I guess I now know why I never did. Something must just have been whispering in my ear...."one day you may need to work with this again!" Well that day has now arrived. This is why I just can't go along with the decluttering thought of if you haven't used it in a year, get rid of it. One never knows and it's not like I could just run out an buy another puzzle book at this time.
So what else did I do today? Well, I decided it was time to fix myself a real meal. Not just a sandwich or a chicken breast but nothing else or not even just cheese and crackers. I cooked! I roasted some fresh asparagus, sautéed some mushrooms, and broiled a steak. It was good. So was the red wine I enjoyed with it, however I have to say I don't make a steak as well as a steakhouse does. I am really looking forward to a good meal out when this is all over.
Tomorrow will be another day. Since I've already determined to day is Tuesday, tomorrow will be Wednesday. I will venture out in my car. I will stay socially distanced and I guess I will wear a mask. I need to go get my mail. This is the new world order.....going to get mail is an exciting event because it takes you out into the world.
