Well. We made it to day 101 of the quarantine. I have learned alot during our shelter in place like how to make disinfectant, hand sanitizer, distilled water, how to order groceries for delivery,  how to cook like on chopped with mystery ingredients delivered as replacements, and bake things I have never tried before. Have you leaned anything new during the quarantine?

What I Learned During Quarantine:

... that I knew a lot more than I realized, b/c none of the stuff in quarantine is new to me, including how to distill water, make my own sanitizing wipes/gel, and work with whatever is available rather than what is ideal...

Who knew a farm and money-poor childhood would come in handy in a *pandemic*?!

Oh, and I learned my husband is an even bigger slob than I thought. And we've been married over 25 years, LOL!

I learned it was ok to regress to childhood when I lived through continue 90 states of emergency curfew lock downs during Uruguay's Tupamaro Civil War 1966-1972. I'm a teacher now and had my face to face classrooms shut down during the pandemic. That reminded me of how the same happened to me during Uruguay's war to take away half of 6th grade of elementary school and half of 8th grade of middle school. I figured we got through that, we can get through this, too.

I learned my Fiance and i must be meant to get married because we never argue even with us both together almost 24/7 for the past 101 days! We still get along great! I learned the fear of losing my dad (at least now hes responding well to treatment) and the fear of not being able to see a loved one when they are in the ER or admitted to the hospital.

Were the recipes good Thor?

Hey Leo, people who work farms are the best. My Dads family were farmers.

I agree with Leo, well said, juice.

AJ, it’s great that your dad is responding to treatment and that you and your fiancé are a great pair.

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.

    Today (August 8) is INternational Cat Day. Don't click away! International DOG day is August 26! Both were created to raise aweareness and funds for the well-being of critters. We have many such dayts, to the pint that every day is like an old Catholic saints' day calendar: Take your pick!I'm home, obvs, and still ill. Left calf and foot not great after a tangle-fall, but i'll live. Just can't...
