I'm cooking and cleaning the kitchen after I cook. Now mandatory-taking turns. Failing that it's every man for himself.

I'm reading and posting reviews, looking for free ebooks.

I'm avoiding the news, except for a brief 5-minute update on my state's mandate each day.

I've finally gotten on my elliptical exercise machine--3 times in 4 weeks-more to come.

I'm watching some YouTube, car crashes mostly.

I have not done any of the honey-do things on the list.

I've decided to use dog clippers on my hair; comb-overs are not a good option.

I'm checking the mail at least twice a month.

Every now and again, I take a shower and get dressed. Don't have to worry about any company, I just start to itch.

The beard is gone. Easier to wash a bare face.

I finally weed-whacked around the back door after the second rider
mower mowing of the season. (Guess why?)

So, what are you doing or not doing right now!

You mowed your lawn??? twice?? our snow just melted, but a bit more coming by thursday/friday...

darn... mowed the lawn.. . that would be great...

archie bunker Loc: Texas

I'm going to work everyday, and cussing people like you who let their mailbox fill up to the point that you can't slip a cigarette paper in there...

Which brings up a question I have.

Everyone is encouraged, some even ordered to stay at home now, right?

So, why are stores, and companies paying the Postal Service to deliver full coverage (every box gets one) advertisements to draw people to their stores??

Seems pretty dumb to me...

Do you remember the "Computer Shopper Magazine," way back when we had floppy 5-inch disks? We went to the largest PO box you could get after they folded the floppy's rending them useless. You could fit about 6 Sears catalogs in it.

Our town is post office box mail only. All my bills are due by about the 15th and as long as I check the mail by the 10th I'm good. If you get too much mail, they'll put a key in the mail for an extra onsite mailbox. I only need to watch the mail for meds, every 3 months.

We've stopped magazines and newspaper deliveries, do a return to sender on junk mail. Most of the time my mailbox is 7/8's empty.
