Yeah, especially when we were virus free until late last summer. And all because of leaving the area, & bringing it back when returning.

We are distant from others enough, that we could have had free run of our city, no businesses closed, & gone about our daily lives if only nobody had gone out of town for any reason other than maybe medical!

For only the second time since the start of the pandemic, BC Emergency Health Services has deployed the Major Incident Response Team (MIRRT) developed as part of its COVID-19 pandemic response efforts.

This time the specialized team is heading to Williams Lake where there are large levels of COVID-19 patients in multiple clusters in the region and an outbreak at the hospital responsible for treating them.

Adding to "the list", I do the following: work on a jigsaw puzzle (1000 pieces), play piano (mostly jazz), listen to classical music on the radio (and play CDs and tapes), walk, walk, and walk some more, crack home-grown pecans, bake a pie or cookies, and, of course, read! I'm only on the computer for less than an hour and hardly watch any TV except in the evening. I have plenty to do to keep my occupied. Oh yes, I often "kid-sit" and play with my 3 young grandchildren. Whew!

I happened to retire and start a new romance a couple of months before the virus hit. Therefore I had plans with what to do with my time. A lot were stymied (concerts, art galleries, cinema) but as things eased in the Summer I got started. Learning French and bass guitar. Now the second lockdown has come I've still got things to work on and practice.

My ladyfriend has almost no experience of art, classical or jazz music, or cinema so I'm introducing her to a new world. We've managed a few symphony concerts when possible but otherwise using online sources or DVDs. It's nice to see someone experiencing some classics of cinema for the first time as well as music in genres new to her.

Yes, Joan Denoo vaccinating the whole world has to be a priority. There's no reason apart from racism to let them suffer. On top of that, we'd be doing ourselves a favour. Less developed countries can act as a resovoir for the virus which will them mutate and bounce back.

Yes, I often find other uses for things.

Other ideas;

declutter your apartment

try to make something useful from the things you find while decluttering

Leftover wool into new scarves, old buttons to decorate things, old pieces of cloth become patches, bags etc.
