People understand. I haven't visited my mother since January. Want to see my kids and grandkids, sigh. It's excellent distraction to get outside and clean stuff up! It's been hard during pandemic--too easy to neglect indoor cleaning because nobody comes over! :) Your place looks so peaceful and tidy.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-46503581502966551242020-10-02T09:38:25.208-07:002020-10-02T09:38:25.208-07:00Sandra, raising a child makes all sci-fi 'time...Sandra, raising a child makes all sci-fi 'time warp' scenarios sensical.

Can't find any marks, though, and he's not getting worse.<br /><br />Adrienne, we'll just keep being safe together. :-) Brian is struggling a bit with 'social isolation,' some of it from pandemic protocols, some of it self-imposed because he doesn't feel like he fits in or that he wants to associate with most of the kids there.<br /><br />Mama Pea, see above on Brian. As for hiring out, I don't think we do 10% of what you and Papa Pea do!!!<br /><br />You have a few years on us, Fran, but Rick has cardiovascular disease and we both have elderly family and friends so why would we want to take undue risk? (I'll get to my horse blog post as soon as I can.)<br /><br />Thanks, Mokihana; I knew you understand the conditions that necessitated it!<br /><br />Kim, Poppy was spayed. She is healing nicely now, but it's still too soon for the kind of running and playing she desperately wants to do. Trust me, a walk around the yard doesn't cut it!!!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-90513636626814292992020-09-24T15:58:37.908-07:002020-09-24T15:58:37.908-07:00What!!

At 73 and 77 and hubby with a compromised immune system, it would be fool hearty to do anything else. We will get carryout, but won't eat "in," even in the two/three sided tents erected everywhere near restaurants. My local spinning group (I am of median age in it) just posted that they were resuming masked, socially distanced indoor spinning at the Rec center and was heartened that I wasn't the only one who replied to the email that I wouldn't attend until there were no new cases here, a valid treatment, or vaccine developed. I would love to visit with my children and grandchildren, see my step mom and my step sibs, but it will wait. Good luck with the zoomie Poppy. I'll have to pop over to the other blog to see Stella info.Franhttp://cabincrafted.fangorn.spacenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-72245933824965958372020-09-24T05:43:30.940-07:002020-09-24T05:43:30.940-07:00First off, do you and Rick hire out?

And that is travel on an airplane and eat in a restaurant. (Haha, not that either of those two things are anywhere near frequent occurrences in our lives!)<br /><br />That ungrateful little Poppy! But with that much energy (don't know if I could handle a dog like her!), it must be very hard to explain to her that she just had major surgery. :o(<br /><br />I, too, have been waiting for a report on Brian's first days at his place of higher learning!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-4006935457581132222020-09-24T03:48:01.097-07:002020-09-24T03:48:01.097-07:00Everything looks great!

I keep seeing pictures of people doing things like life is normal and it's bothersome and makes me doubt myself the measures I'm taking to avoid COVID. But my primary care doc recently affirmed everything I'm doing and said to keep it up, so - Onward :-) I hope Brian is getting settled in at school.
