Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Hello CC,

Let's hope it does not get to that point, of everything collapsing. I appreciate you sharing your perspective.


Stay safe as well.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Hello Merc,

I appreciate your prospective...and you are right.

I wonder though....though in near total isolation, I would still say we have a lot of freedoms that still exists. It could always be worse. How about being informed to do something against your free will? I suppose that could be the next level beyond what we have now. Let's hope it don't go that far.

Stay safe.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Usha....I am also finding the beauty in the current environment we have been subjected to. Maybe it is a testament on how flexible some people can be when introduced to a new way of living. The old saying, when given lemons...make lemonade. :)


Stay safe over there...and let your spirit roam in exotic and beautiful ways.

CH,

That is terrible to hear in the Philippines.

I said at the beginning of this to my family, once our store shelves go empty...it is time to run to the woods.

It is reported that people who are hungry will rob you after 3 days...and after, I think it was 11, they will kill you.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

You are always right CH.

...well, sometimes.

RE: Not on Quarantine

I know a lady who once worked there...I know how hard you work. :(


Get as much rest as possible.

RE: My Covid-19 Blog

CH,

My gut feeling is saying exactly what you say....hopefully not the reality.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

CH.....in a ironic way, I think you might be right. :/


Robert....only walnut wood smells good.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

It is something for some thought there Molly.

Like mentioned to Robert....perhaps we will discover a new found appreciation for things...maybe all things. However, I think another year or two of this might get that to sink in a bit.

But who knows...hopefully we don't have to go through this much longer.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Robert took has bawdy self elsewhere I guess.

Pepps is still around in the shadows. ....very rarely does she stop in around here....but maybe with some encouragement. I chat with her a bit on Facebook. She has been doing well from what I hear.

Okay....yes, we need as much as we can get over here with sanitizer and all the other safety/cleaning stuff.

I will wait for your call....take your time, I am going nowhere.

Chat soon.

RE: My Covid-19 Blog

those are the words she used too...hard-headed.


The population density, of course, is not going to help anything.

I heard over here that if Japan does not get ahead of the virus, they are facing major issues as well.



Hopefully there is light at the end of all this.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

...right Molly...

There is absolutely nothing easy about the solution to this problem.

RE: My Covid-19 Blog

I am sorry to hear that :(....about your home country.

I was wondering. There was nothing I hear on the news here about them. I asked Hazel about over there and she said in Manila that they are staying in....but she mentioned something about some might not be heeding the quarantine order.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Agree Molly. My father and mother are both older as well, and I can relate on the importance distancing. I am not a huge fan on all this protesting going on over here...like you say....things are what they are....and necessary action is just that...necessary. Hopefully things go well here.. ...but I hope the country don't get open too soon and we are worse off than we are now.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

That is nice of you CH....I am happy you did. It is truly wonderful to see you and to know you are safe and sound still.

Hopefully that is not your final blog, you are very much enjoyed here....even if it is just the chew the jaw.



Give a call anytime you feel you want to bs. Now days, I have extra time on my hands as well.

RE: My Covid-19 Blog

I agree CH..... ....very nice things you have done.


It sounds like your country did a wonderful job in keeping things to a minimum there....hopefully that holds.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Bear, I was working on my stairs project when that thought occurred to me...first about what we take for granted and secondly about the entitlement mentality.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Hey CH...long time no see.

How are you?

I am laying on the floor at the current moment, checking Facebook, on here, and watching the news.

What about you?

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

That is right, the bawdy talk. What does bawdy mean Molly? I have been too lazy to look it up.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

How are you doing with all this Molly?

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Nice. Those masks doing their jobs....getting all stained up. You know that would be dangerous right? If he didn't have his mask on and he had the covid and a little droplet from him happens to land on your eyeball has he talks to you? Right?

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Very true Molly....for some, this time will be a little bit of perspective taking. Others...any thought of that will not cross their minds.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

I don't know Robert. You could save humanity by warning them of which women to avoid.

By the way, what did you think she was talking about when she was going to give you some pink eye? Did you ask her if she was going to provide some brown eye too? That's it, you should have asked for the brown eye.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

Maybe you should put away your adult video collection Robert.


I swear Robert, I proudly watch a lot of movies. ....but, I swear that they put that lighting up cigarette scene in there to promote smoking. I think there has been only 1 movie I have watched in the last 3 years that didn't have that.

But maybe...I am a ex-smoker....that is kinda still got the craving for one....that just notices that.

Maybe you have the same problem with those scenes.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

The nice thing Robert....we still have many luxuries.


Maybe the cable tv industry should have a Little House on the Prairie marathon on every channel for the next month.

Boy....the things we have taken for granted....

That is interesting Robert....I did see that in my local store. They say for safety purposes, they are not taking returnables. Yes Robert....maybe when you are able to bring them in, you will have a new found appreciation?

beauty is timeless

beauty is timeless

yes...she had a tolerance that would make you look weak Robert

beauty is timeless

Robert.....be mindful of your poor little liver.


chat soon....take care

beauty is timeless

Hmmm Robert....I suppose it could be worse....having a wine habit and being in debt trying to support it. Well, what a way to bring a ray of light to my life....no debt yet in that department.
