Free at last


Andy and I made our first trip off the property in close to seven weeks. Trussed up like turkeys we made the trip to Sam's pointing out areas of interest like we hadn't lived in Columbus for the last 64 years. It was surreal.  Sam's was not crowded and those who were there were also trussed and safe.  Some of the shelves were empty...like the fresh green beans that I buy for Bella had only one bag left.  But we managed to fill two carts with wonderful things.  There were no lines to check out and we were out of there in less than 25 minutes. I think I can now make it to the end of this virus having had that little break. I am sipping my iced capp from Tim Horton's as I write and this session is giving me great pleasure. Oh, Andy also got a set of five cans of Clorox wipes which we are very proud of...did I just write that???

I am now considering which delectable to prepare for dinner.  I will try to have something more interesting than pizza which was our Easter feast.  I can't believe I am actually writing that sentence, exposing myself to bouts of laughter from the Cincinnati Lechlers who usually come here for every holiday event. Well, I try to be entertaining and succeeded with the pizza story,

The wind is picking up after the nice little rain so I am hoping no trees fall.  The neighbors on both sides of us have some serious dead trees and they never fall in their yards, only in ours and of course, they knock down a portion of the fence each time. A couple of weeks go by and they finally get to the tree, one does a good job, one does not. Sigh.  Well, that's all I have to bitch about today.  I am off to the kitchen to prepare a little feast.  I think it will be with salmon today.

NOT SALMON:

To the doctor

We are off to the doctor to have Andy checked out since he has had two falls.  We thought to wait until his appointment on the 20th, but aft...
