In a dream, I was researching. It was a challenge but I successfully documented the man. When I awakened I thought I’d quickly write down his name and dates—but instantaneously I forgot everything. I’m starting my day exhausted because I’ve been climbing trees all night!! ~~ I’ll add to this message as I work toward making this a “good Friday.”
Sitting on my porch, drinking coffee, the thought came to mind “rabble-rouser.” If it were not so miserably hot (most of the time), I’d “shake things up” around here. All (almost all) of the residents are as isolated in their homes as I have been. The Coronavirus—and the variants—have stolen our lives!! Yes, I’ve had my hobby but I’ve missed social interaction. Even this morning, I am “self-isolating” because I’m not going to the Clubhouse for waffles and fellowship.
I started my day with a “trike ride” followed by some gardening—and “oddball” projects.

While it was reheating, I went back to my outdoor project. 
I “know better”; I “know” I shouldn’t be using the stove while outdoors!! (Bronze medal winner for participating in the game of outdoors??)

I was “motivated” to work on projects in the yard, and carport. Regrettably, too hot!!
Well, at least you know your smoke alarm works. 😉
Sometime this past year (forgotten when), “Mr. Red” came and checked the detector. I guess it wasn’t working because he put up a brand-new, just out-of-the-box, model. ~~ Because of the new variant to the Coronavirus, I haven’t been going to the Clubhouse for waffles (on Friday). We have a very thoughtful, considerate owner-manager of this RV Park.
Well, Mother, if people were to just do as they’ve been asked to do, we wouldn’t be here today. But no, the oh-so special snowflakes amongst us just have to throw barn-yard fowl fecal matter little temper tantrums and here we all are, isolated. It’s all god’s plan I’m sure. I in my meditations have achieved a degree of mastery I had not thought possible, in retrospect not sure being from of a long line of jacks of all things that I want it, but here we are. And really, mastery of zen is nothing.
I think you’ve done a good job of keeping your wits about you through all of this …
