Yesterday was a pretty calm day. I read, watched an episode of Broadchurch, worked on my puzzle, filed and shredded papers, did a load of laundry, and communicated electronically with friends and family. I wore my new mask when I went to the laundry room, but I didn't see anyone, so I guess it was just a rehearsal.

I'm hearing that the peak is coming soon, and it is time to really stay in -- not even go to the grocery or pharmacy, unless it is a true emergency. I figure I'll be in until at least the end of the month. Then we'll see.

I have another load of laundry to do today. Meals are planned: bacon biscuit and apple for breakfast, chicken tortilla soup and crackers for lunch, and a tuna salad sandwich for dinner. I'm going to use up some leftover asparagus, probably make cream of asparagus soup, but I won't eat that till tomorrow.

After my DIL went grocery shopping for me, my freezer is comfortably full, just the way I like it. I am going to stretch out my food to the max.

I finished my ebook and returned it. Now I'm working through the three physical books I have on hand, and in a couple of weeks a new one will be delivered. So I may not be getting another ebook for a while. I will wait until I don't have anything else, because I read on my phone, and I don't like all the interruptions, and I also don't like to have to stop to charge the phone, nor the pressure of getting through the book before it disappears.

I paid $5 to my healthcare provider yesterday. It was for the portion of lab work that was not covered by insurance. The lab work was done before all this came down. Variables are at 23%.

I hope everyone is well out there in these troubling times!
