Sudoku lifestyle
My ongoing game of lifesize Sudoku made progress, today. The basement, for a LONG time, has been under construction. Unlike a new, empty home, we live here 24/7/365. And, in keeping with one of those laws of thermodynamics (I’m guessing here), stuff keeps coming in. Good stuff, but the floor space seems to shrink in consequence. Anyhow…
This evening, I cleared the final room, to allow wall mudding and ceiling suspension. Everything is now in (neat) piles, elsewhere, and we can continue the project in the new year. At this rate, I’ll be able to deploy the guest bedroom long before the summer rush. The summer rush; seems like a fond memory, after the last ten months. Optimism!
Talked to a couple of the kids, today. No, there’ll be little chance of a drop-in on their part. We live in separate universes.
The second “brand” of vaccine has arrived; this should allow us to get the interested among us injected before many more months go by. Before the summer rush? Optimism! There won’t be any tourism, unless we get things in order.
In an odd footnote to our pandemic, they’ve found other sites of infection in mink farms. I have no idea what that actually means. Are we now going to have to test animal communities? Does a mink stand for a casual nose swab? Actually, the virus is also showing up in sewage systems, so we are in for a lot more pain before putting this one away. Why knew? Guess what? I’m staying at home for the foreseeable.
