Pandemic Update!

Hi, everybody! Just wanted to drop by and tell you all that I'm fine, Kevin and the teenager and I are sheltering in place and not going out for anything but absolute essentials. Our buddy Shepherd is here too, which is nice because she can do a lot of scratch cooking. (Me, I'm working in the garden a lot.)

Everything's pretty messed up out there, but we're all healthy so far and trying to our part to flatten the curve. Schools are closed and the governor just ordered all bars and restaurants to shut down for anything but takeout. I'm worried for all my local business friends, but it's gotta be done. I'm doing daily check-in Twitter threads for people, so if you're out that way and don't follow me yet, I'm ursulav over there.

World got a lot stranger this year. Take care of yourselves.

Since partner got sent home from work yesterday today has been our first full day of isolation. So far there have been card games via internet with sibling crew, Gatorade-related calculations (if we wash the bottles well, there are some vessels to mix the powdered stuff in and have it ready in the fridge), and the 🎺📯 replacement of the pantry light that's been Mysteriously Broken forever! 📯🎺
(Tried replacing the bulbs. Tried replacing the ballast. At this point it was time to call an expensive electrician, or get adult supervision from Pops. Today, both Belovedest and Pops had time. Diagnosis: busted fixture *and* likely wires separated.)
