Three–or more–of the gifts are from my Christmas Angel. Earlier this year, she sent an array of masks–and has suggested (time and time again) that I “get out of the house; go shopping.” Or, she would implore: “Take a drive; go through a ‘drive-in’ and treat yourself.” Scaredy-cat old lady hasn’t wanted to venture out in public–not even for a Dairy Queen treat. Here are a few words from her most recent email message: “And you really can reduce your risk by ordering online for curbside pick-up. Even if you STILL go inside for a few items you want to pick out yourself, you can get the bulk of your order pulled and put right in your car. A lot less for you to touch in the store and time for you to be in the store.”
