The Virus - Day 21 - Sunday, April 5, 2020

Today's post should help... with dating all this if necessary.
It is early morning .. well not that early... About 9:15am...

The book I am reading has me fascinated. The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt... someone told me it is a movie and I see on Amazon it is... 2019.  Will consider watching after reading.

Yesterday there was some rain.. TODAY... lots of rain this morning. Hard... and a bit sustained.

Later - some zooms with Deanne's family. And shiva for Aunt Dorothy... to be attended by daughters... soom... to NJ.

Will probably makes some calls today... such as Arthur and Linda Sternberg... and Syma...And Andrew....

more later??? ===================================

Good day.. .went to zoom meeting w/Deanne's family...

Had a nice conversation w/Linda Sternberg. A good conversation w/Syma and a very good conversation with my cousin Arthur..

Book talk w/Syma -- when i finish The Goldfinch.. need to talk more with her.

Arthur, in NYC... being careful and that sounds good.

And also went to Shiva for Aunt -- DOTTIE... Dorothy... and daughters were there and I sent Arthur's condolences.

My parents are doing pretty well... though several weeks ago Arthur had to tell them -- don't go out to get hair done.. that would be CRAZY... so I guess people are not doing what they should without others telling them clearly and loudly..OY!

And now listening to chabad... talmud.. not a good use of my time.. so I am doing this, too. Bottom line -- isn't there something to say about what is actually happening now? Does this rabbi ever consider what is happening in the general world... The talk is about the size of fruit, and it covering. protection .. and such.. AND -- when can you use the fruit of a tree ... . when can a fruit tree be cut down? What happens during a sabbatical year...  Must be some way to join such issues with The Virus... but no -- he just talks, and talks, and talks....  I guess if you want to be "somewhere else" this is such a place. Everyone seems to be listening... though quietly... and rabbi just goes on and on... why are we doing any of this...??

Soon.. I will cut filters for Deanne and her face-mask project...
