Sunday night – Forks for the win

It’s funny what keeps us occupied during our confinement.… I noticed today that for the very first time in my recorded memory we actually had more forks in the dishwasher and spoons… Imagine that…

I mean imagine that I would even notice such a thing

But it’s a big deal here in the household… We’ve even been singing about it

It’s a wondrous world !

The rest of the day was less remarkable but still fun. Diane and I found a void in the electronica doggie fence. She had repaired it once after friends truck pulled up and cut the wire .but it was bad weather and didn’t get a chance to solder it. Luckily she remembered where it was we were able to dig it up and I was able to solder it . It was surprisingly fun trying to trace the wire and find the cut under a foot of dirt

Later in the day We spent some time teaching Hunter To weld.… I had just enough shielding gas for about half an hour of playing around. He’s a natural… Will get some more gas and do some more. I’m not sure any welding stores are open right now

OK… I’m being called downstairs for a movie. That’s one of our apocalyptic guilty pleasures.

More tomorrow

Nite all, nite Sam

Friday night – Hunters birthday

Super busy day at work… The days just seem to be getting longer. It was nice to stop work around six because it was our housemate Hunter’s 26th birthday. It’s so great having Hunter and Kyle here in the house with us.… They do so much help around the house… And there’s so much fun

Kyle made hunter a wonderful vanilla cake… (Hunter doesn’t like chocolate… Hard to believe but true)

We also made homemade pasta… Something we haven’t done in a long time. Stuff like this makes the Quarantine more fun

It’s definitely spring now.… So beautiful out. Hope to get some hiking in tomorrow

Nite all, nite sam

Thursday night – thirty days

I heard an interesting swizzle in an old rhyme today. .. it goes

Thirty day hath September

April June and November

All the rat have 31

Except this March has 100

We were talking at dinner about the strange passage of time during this lockdown period .. I really am loosing track of the weeks

And I know it’s still early

What about you?

Nite all, nite sam

-me

Ps I remember the rhyme as

Thirty days hath November

April June and no wonder

All the rest have peanut butter

Except grandma,

She rides a bike

I looked that up

And found 94(!) variants of that same thing here
