Hi Shawn,

RH> I feel odd, sitting it out but it's better for me to do so. Tomorrow

SH> Exactly.

Altho I did prepare the crafts for each day--that took several hours but
it was low stress work. From what I heard, VBS went well overall this
year.


RH> I'll get over to the farmer's market for a bit, then a little shopping
RH> at W-M and Wegman's, but try to be out for only a couple of hours. I've
RH> added a few more "must do's" around the house but it's still far from
RH> the organisational project I'd hoped to do over the spring.

SH> Slow and steady wins the race!

Yes, I got out, as planned a bit both on Friday and Saturday but then
stayed home on Sunday. Today I did my usual Monday catch up on laundry
(only 2 loads) but am not doing much otherwise. I may head into the
sewing room tomorrow to start the baby quilt that needs doing. Steve
grilled a steak yesterday, may grill again tonight, and I'll do an easy
side or two but nothing fancy.

RH> I probably should wear a mask when I go out tomorrow, at least in the
RH> stores. Covid is going around here, including in groups we're members
RH> of, so, better safe than sorry.

SH> Even if it only helps 2% it's worth it to me.  Andrea has an auto
SH> immune thing so anything I can do is worth it.

For sure there! I don't have anything like that but just let myself get
too run down and what might have been a minor cold took advantage of a
weakened system.

RH> Yes, we'd like to get back over to Germany some time, get to Italy
RH> while in Europe also. We're discussing a return trip to HI in 3 years;
RH> we celebrate our 50th anniversary the same year the church we were
RH> members of while over there celebrates their 50th.

SH> That would be a good time to celebrate for sure!

We've got enough time to plan it. We mentioned it to our older daughter
when we were out west; she liked the idea.


RH> Thanks, slowing down is frustrating but better for me in the long run.

SH> That is the truth.

At least I can still move forward. (G)
