It ain't over yet

A couple of weeks ago, Clawdia got to visit outside with her good friend Sharon, who was wearing a mask.  I was at the far end of Clawdia's leash, also wearing a mask.  The mosquitos were terrible that day for the two humans.  I don't know about Clawdia.

Here's my little black panther in her open window this morning.  Having it open is her usual way to get fresh air.  She begs me to open it.  Unless it rains or gets too hot, I try to keep it open for her.  It's 85° out there right now, but I've left the window open because there's a breeze.

I'm still sheltering in place, until I see what happens as things open back up.  Many of us can relate to this cartoon.  The days seem to stretch on and on and on.  Some of us enjoyed sitting outside recently — all socially distanced — and actually talking to real people.  At least, the couple in this cartoon have each other.

Some of the gardeners have planted things in the raised beds near the gazebo.  I noticed this sign has all the right letters to spell O-K-R-A, my favorite food.  On the back, the sign is in Chinese.  I assure you that no ORCAS were mistreated in the making of the gardens here at the Crown Center.

The opening up of towns and cities makes me nervous. We are still being careful, wearing masks, only going out when necessary, but I have managed to see some friends outside and socially distanced. It felt good to see them in person!

Our stupid state of Arkansas opened up (did it ever close???) and now our numbers are jumping. I'm one of the few who stays home and wears a mask.

Aw I'll bet your friend was glad to get to spend some time with you and Clawdia.
