All the News

Or maybe not. Have you noticed how few interviews with survivors of the disease du jour are available? I did a search as I was curious what it felt like. They are pretty scarce....

Or that most people who fit the description of "elderly" have "underlying conditions"? Seriously, how many people over sixty aren't on some medication for some age-related impairment, however minor? That description takes in a lot of territory...and a lot of people.

Or that the Iditarod has started? I am going to miss my dear friend, Jan, this year, as it will be the first time in many that she hasn't shared news and generally hilarious commentary on the last great race. You can find good info here from another longtime blog friend: Way up North.

Meanwhile, our car is dead or at least severely incapacitated, and we have no way to go anywhere or do anything. Many thanks to Lisa, our dear sister-in-law for getting the folks' groceries taken care of as we have been grounded since Thursday.....

I sure hope they find the gremlins soon, and get them under control! Things are changing way too fast around here. It would be nice to at least be able to cope with the day to day necessities.

That is all.
