It's sad how many universities are opening one week and closing down the next. I hope Owl's school keeps their act together so she can stay in class.<br /><br />We have state and local mask requirements, and most people seem to be following them. I'm glad -- I worry about my 83 y-o mom. Hmm. I worry for me, too. I'm not as young as I'd like to be. But it's not worth hassling people about their choices. If somebody gets to coughing, I just leave, mask or no mask.<br /><br />I *NEED* USPS to be doing well. All my income is from online sales that I mail out. Vote by mail? I probably will, just to keep Mom out of a crowded situation, and she agrees. I only worry that mail-in ballots might not get counted, assuming they get there in time.<br /><br />Crazy times we live in.Deb Salisbury, Magic Seeker and Mantua-Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01513482264195697450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076293789081887442.post-6734590939670424432020-08-18T11:08:44.654-05:002020-08-18T11:08:44.654-05:00Life here is pretty much business as usual. Other ...Life here is pretty much business as usual. Other than LG being here all day. And that's not only the new normal and currently the present normal, but it's future normal too. <i>*sigh*</i> I'm adjusting better than he is but it was time for him to retire, considering the health issues.<br /><br />I mask up if I go in. Otherwise heat and wind and distance do their jobs. I miss eating out occasionally. We've also done fastfood but actually going to a restaurant with the kids for lunch and having time to eat and visit.<br /><br />And baseball is back so that helps. School is going to be weird. Shopping is weird. Eating is weird. Life goes on. We adapt and hope that when the old normal finally comes back, it doesn't feel weird.<br /><br />I want a T-shirt that says "The Weird Abides."<br /><br />Happy Tuesday.Silver Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15606837105470988646noreply@blogger.com
