Thanks, esse. Everything was delicious.

I am apparently regressing to age eight and making matzo pizza for dinner.

I'm making dairy-free pizza (made the dough yesterday) for pizza right now and it's great!
I took a walk and dropped off two masks at my BFF's, now that I have a working sewing machine again. Now that everybody at work has a cloth mask I can start filling friends' needs, so long as my elastic holds out. I'm experimenting with crocheting ties, which actually worked pretty good for my mask-wearing on my walk.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My 92 year old grandfather and my aunt in her 70s are officially having Easter dinner with my cousin, the nurse.
My presumed COVID positive sister is in the middle of her 14-day quarantine at home but invited every neighborhood kid/family to come get Easter pictures at her house. She's gonna wipe down the large fluffy bunny with Clorox wipes between kids.
My brother and his wife drove up from Orange County to Palm Springs, then came up to visit her parents (they live just a few houses away from me) for drive-in Easter service. Then they wanted to stop and visit here. Told them at least ten feet away, from outside. Then they're back to stepmom and step-stepdad's for Easter dinner. Oh, and my bro and sis-in-law watch their grandtwins all of the time. The ones who are eight months old.
That entire side of my family is why we can't have nice things. On the bright side, they brought lemons.

Thrive to spite them
On FB I saw some of my cousins were at the beach for Easter. They had to come up from Central Florida. It was just their immediate family but they still had to travel and why did they do that?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am glad my family just did a Zoom call instead of thinking we should see each other in person. My aunt's parents just flew back up from Florida which is good, and they are taking their 14-day quarantine seriously, apparently, which is even better.

I'm probably thinking way too far ahead, but depending on what the situation looks like by August, if the university does have on-campus classes for the Fall semester, I'm not sure if I'll feel safe teaching.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
After an hour and a half of prompting and no action, I just took Matilda's phone away until she does her YouTube workout.
Sheesh. She's taking idle to some new unprecedented level.

I think I gave myself a stomach ache from eating too many carbs today. Like I only ate carbs. grilled cheese sandwich, cookies, chips and a little pico, mashed potatoes.
