We are having warm, dry days.    Nice for walks as I am trapped in this house as far as communication with real live people.      I realize that this is the best strategy at this time, but it is hard.    You, who know me, know what a social person I am.   That's why I get involved with things like bible study, writing club, Irish groups and quilting.

Oh.   Well   This too shall  pass.   I am praying for all of you that you do not succumb to this awful virus.      I am reminded of the polio epidemic in the early 50s.     A neighbor's daughter got it and died in an iron lung in Milwaukee.    My sister, Nora, was babysitting when the fever hit the girl.    My poor Mother was in a state of panic with all of her children.    Nora had to get gamma globulin shots and was she ever upset.

That too passed and thank God for the Salk vaccine.
