It is October 2020. The year that is going by so fast but never seems to end.
When I talk to Matt on the telephonic device, I often sit on the front porch. Ruby insists I throw the ball so she can get it all slobbering and dirty. Finally, when it is terribly gross, I refuse to throw it. Clyde may be sitting nearby watching that stupid dog doing stupid dog things.

I bought some pizza dough at Trader Joe's and made a couple of vegetarian pizzas. They were delicious and probably fattening.

I went to the doctor for my semi-annual physical. I had to put on little paper booties and wear a mask. The next day I got my results back and was amazed at how much improved I was over the last time. This is despite eating a lot of junk and gaining weight. It is a Covid Miracle.

In the backyard, the year-old marigolds that I got for last year's All Souls Procession have magically come back to life. They are pretty.

The small yellow sunflowers that Birdy planted have also come back to life and are providing bees with some delicious nectar.

For the last month or so there was a terrible smell in the bathroom. Horrible. I thought it was the drains and my attempts to ameliorate it were unsuccessful. Finally I decided that the wax ring for the toilet must be defective. So I lifted it up and replaced the ring (it took two of them). It was a disgusting project. And then it turned out the horrible smell was mold growing on the little bathroom rug.

Well someone in the White House is a disease vector and so many people, including the orange thing and his Slovenian "I really don't care," have acquired the trendy Covid-19 virus. What a surprise. It was only a matter of time. I'm hoping they all recover soon because I want to see them kicked out.
