Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Yeah, I say talk to the other families and see if there’s anything big that strikes you as not ok safety wise other than school, and then decide, but sounds like it would be helpful? On the other hand, I have a friend in NC who is a hospitalist at a children’s hospital who said the system is so swamped they’re about to have to start treating adult patients too, which is scary.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Glam, that seems very reasonable. School and doctors appointments are our only risks right now. ltc wears a mask all day at school. Do you know if this pod is doing that?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Did everyone see the Google Doodle today? It's beautiful.

I don't think they are, but I'm not 100% sure, so will add to my list of questions.

COVID has officially reached my extended family. My uncle (who has many pre-existing conditions and is in his mid-70s) is in the ICU on a ventilator with COVID. He and my aunt went to their son's home for Christmas, where there were 3 adults and 2 teens, none of whom are being very safe. Nine days later, COVID. I just...

I'm so sorry to hear that, Glam.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's horrible news, Glam. I'm sorry.

Amazingly, he's doing a bit better today. Vent was doing 100% of his breathing when he was admitted (Sat.) and now it's doing 40%. He was also able to follow commands when they lowered sedation, which is a good sign. He told my aunt if it came to it, he didn't want to be on a vent but she just couldn't make that call. We'll see if it was the right one.

She and her granddaughter tested negative for COVID today. Cousin's family needs to test but don't know their status. It def came through one of them.

What is even happening?

Glam, I'm sorry to hear about your uncle's diagnosis. I'm glad he is improving.
