JUST ANOTHER DAY!

It's Tuesday....at least I'm pretty sure its Tuesday.  Everyday it seems to get harder to remember what day it is.  Thank goodness my phone not only gives me the date, but the day of the week. Everything with which I used to figure out what day it is, is gone.  No club gatherings, no work, no appointments, really nothing not even any church to prepare for.  Every day is just like every other day in this Covid-19 world we are living in. Even TV seems to be the same.....news stories about Covid-19 and more and more reruns as new production is ended.

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 times
over 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.
