Good Day to all of you,We're hanging in here and so far so good. Are are following the guidelines though sometimes difficult. Some people just don't get it or care to... We've been getting our groceries delivered or we pick them up in the parking lot of the stores and pay online. I'd imagine that's what we're all doing now. If anyone needs info on sources please let me know. Getting the groceries de-germed is a days work in itself. I feel like a surgeon - decontamination must be precise! Everything gets wiped down with clorox wipes (they're now extinct at grocery stores and on-line) and then the plastic bags are dated and thrown on the terrace for 3 days to clean up their act. Paper bags and boxes aren't handled for the prescribed 24 hours.It's difficult to enjoy pastimes outdoors other than walking and even that can be a minefield here. Here is a study that says you should do more than 6 feet apart.We went kayaking beginning of last week in our inflatable kayak and on the way home one side of it deflated. We found the leak and it just so happens that the seam split on one side. It can't be repaired so that ends that form of entertainment! We went for a bike ride a few days later and I fell off my bike. I went through a small puddle not knowing there was a pothole in the bottom of that puddle! I hung up my helmet for now as the last place I want to be is in emergency getting repairs! Well, it's down to walking for entertainment, exercise, and agility (avoiding oncoming walkers who are oblivious). Sometimes people on bikes or other forms of transportation quietly creep up behind you without making a peep. Those are the ones you have to be most wary of.Home entertainment is the name of the game. We're now watching Unorthodox on Netflix. If anyone is curious about the lives of Orthodox Jews - this one's for you. I'm amazed that this goes on today. We just finished the 3rd season of Ozarks. It's about the Mexican drug cartel infiltrating America. There's some violence, but I find it intriguing. Also watched Richard Jewell - a short series on Spectrum called "Manhunt"... I think. I guess you'd call it a docudrama about the Atlanta Olympics bombing. Very good.Looking forward to hearing from you. Play it safe!🤓On Thu, Apr 9, 2020 at 6:12 PM <whisperingwaters.social@mailman3-lists.com> wrote:_______________________________________________Hi all WW Friends;
