So I am feeling grateful that, due to vaccines, I'm not in the hospital.

Yes.

It is nice to have ooptions. But sometimes scary, too.

Very true.

The new heater has been installed. Noisy. But done. The new thermostat is analog, though, and I much prefer digital. Being a Princess and the Pea type, I feel the difference between 73 and 74 and 75 degrees. I may need to supplement with my new and already beloved space heater.

Darn, sorry it is noisy and not digital.

Glad to hear that Brittany Griner was released. What a horrible experience for her.

She’s going to be treated here in San Antonio.

:(

How bad is she?

Richard gave me a big ol' book about Hollywood musicals by Ted Sennett - I've seen it a lot but never had it, so that's very nice.

That’s a great book. I hope you enjoy it.

Ditto!

Great news from John G. Congrats! What's the job?

It's working for a conglomeration of hospitals on their digital content.

I made some blueberry-almond bars for Sunday's cookie exchange. They smell heavenly.

I am leaning toward accepting the offer. The appeal of working totally remote cannot be underestimated. Especially when the people at my neighboring desks have recently come down with bad cases of covid.

There's a lot to be said for that DR John G. So you'd be changing employers?

Even though I've napped off and on all day, I'm feeling the need to lie down again.
