So, I have been sick for a while. I am not that worried about it.
Just low level flu and so on. I am going to have a week off from
work, so that's nice. Life at the farm isn't too bad. There's a
lot that can be done here to prepare for what ever is happening
now. I am going to start a garden. Something I have wanted to do
for a couple of years. It turned out that the laundry machine had
broken during the winter. It probably froze. I thought I had
removed all the water but I guess I hadn't.

The dog loves the situation. He's been getting more attention
than usually. He often gets leftovers now that we are cooking
all the food ourselves. He is working on tracking the rodents
around the place. We have a rat or something living here, in
addition to the mice.
