Hi Ed!
Glad you're kicking up there, and keeping the public informed.
Defining the faith at certain times, may not be as easy to arrive at, *lol* On one hand, our government tells us that no jobs are threatened by the current necessity of requiring change. On the other side, the businesses that serve us tell us they have to cut jobs, because they don't have an endless supply of funding to keep operating, *lol* I suspect the truth probably lies somewhere between, *lol* Hmmm, somewhere between, brings music to mind, *lol* Balsom Range, I believe, *lol*
Here, we are OK. Still taking the prescribed antibiotics, waiting for the first cup of tea to finnish soaking out, and beginning a new week.
I wish I could be as eloquent as you, but my so-called talent is still not sufficiently developed, *lol* To that end, pleas keep inspiring.
Cheers,
Dave

It has been good to feel well enough to actually enjoy the weekend and get a few things done around the big old house--making a pot of soup for the next few days; straightening up the basement and getting a handle on the recyclables; laundering bathroom towels; getting some updated local COVID-19 information on the air on the radio station; and communicating with some of the people we care about.
It was 29 years ago today that Karen and I "rediscovered" each other in a chance meeting that is too complicated to try to explain. Nevertheless, it was a meeting that led to our eventual marriage and thus to the life that we share with each other today. It has been a great weekend for recalling that life-changing event and for celebrating the bit of cosmic convergence that brought us back together.
Be well, and keep the faith--no matter how you may define it.
Peace,
Ed

Thank you, Keri. We're staying in the house but that's okay. I love my house so I don't mind. I just haven't felt like doing anything but I think things are getting better every day.
Peace
Karen

I hope you both get to feeling better soon.

Sheri called Jim McCune and he took action and before long we got a phone call with an offer for whatever we needed, be it soup or whatever, and I wanted fruit because that's all I had an appetite for. Before long there were fruits of different kinds at our back door. Just because we're far away and can't actually go to the house of someone

Now is the time to Think outside the confines of our own homes and consider others you may know who may live alone, are isolated, and afraid. If you know people that you can get in touch with by phone, think about giving them a call just to check on them and just to give them human contact. I know I’ll be doing that.
