Pandemic update. Life continues on, except for over 2,000 people who died in the last 24 hours. It seems crazy that this is happening. I cannot stand to hear the orange thing's voice. The moment I hear it on the radio I immediately turn it off. I hate him. I wish only the worst for him, the first bitch, and his three oldest brats.
Anyways, this is where I have been attempting to work. I finally gave up and decided to go to the office. I am only one of a handful of people there (archaeology is considered an essential service because we clear infrastructure projects). I am very careful to use paper towels soaked in 409 solution to open doors. Usually no one else is in my office.
Cosmos.
Ruby enjoys all of the extra attention.
Leaf puzzle underway.

Springtime continues. Miniature sunflowers are blooming in the front yard.
Sunflowers.
In the backyard California poppies and cosmos are blossoming.

I've been doing genealogy research, newspaper transcriptions, baking bread, getting fat, having Facebook tell me off, and doing puzzles.
National Parks puzzle, this one had odd shapes.
On Egg Day I made potato salad, bread, asparagus, baked beans, and macaroni and cheese. Birdy and Doug came over and shared lunch. That morning Matt showed up and gave me a bag of things including some decorations and dog toys.
Because our governor has refused to shut things down, the peak infection day keeps getting farther away. It was April 23, but now is projected to be April 30. And now the Republican mantra that people should be willing to die so that rich assholes can make more money is getting louder and louder. I hate them too.
