One
thing about washing your hands so often is that they get dry and chaffed. It
reminds me of when our puppies were very small. It was a very cold winter and
they had to do their business on a puppy pad indoors for quite a while. That
meant changing the liner and washing your hands frequently.
Now,
of course, I can take the dogs outside (It’s still cold here!), but I have to
wash my hands as soon as I get home, as well as at many other times during the
day. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose!
Many
friends are now sending along cartoons and videos to entertain each other. Some
are cute, some are risqué, some provoke a belly laugh, others a groan. All are
appreciated, because the regular news is not funny.
You
need to keep a smile handy these days, don't you? So far, we have managed to
stay sane here together. The biggest problem is finding something on TV that is
not a news program about the disaster. Our current favourite is The Repair
Shop in its 6th season streaming on BBC (two seasons available
on Netflix).
Confirmed cases of Covid-19 are still on the rise in Canada, but there appears to be a levelling off in sight. As of this date, 202,458 people have been tested and 5,652 cases have been confirmed (149.2 cases per million population). Thankfully only 61 people have died.
Many
friends are taking the time to correspond these days. All over the world people
have time to sit back and think about happier times and make plans for the
future as well. I am sure they will be happy too.
