Who are you?

Every week, when I post an update to my blog, I notice how many people have read each entry.

Who are you?  Please drop a comment....it's perfectly safe to do so (not you, Nan..I know you're out there).

Anyway, we're having a good weekend.  Productive and stress free.

Dave went to Coscto on Friday and got us stocked up on toilet paper and other necessities.  We both went the last time, but he dealt with it himself on his Friday off.  We shouldn't need to go back for a while.

I finally got a couple of cucumbers off of my vines.  The tiny water melons are just not growing.  They are all still the same size they've been for weeks.  My guess is that the planter is way too small.  Even adding fresh soil and fertilizer has done nothing to encourage them to mature.

The cherry tomato plant has lots of little green tomatoes on it, but they are not maturing, either.  We have gotten exactly 6 mature fruits off of it this entire time.  In their case, it could be that the summer heat has stunted them.  I don't know.

With the surge in COVID-19 cases in Oklahoma, Dave has not gone for another haircut (he's only had one since late February), and his mop was getting out of control.

He asked me to shave his head yesterday, so I got out the scissors, chopped off the length, and went at his pate with his beard trimmer.   He's now got a short buzz cut.  It will be much cooler, and less trouble.

I, on the other hand, have not had a haircut since late February, when Dave and I went together.  My hair is doing just fine, though.  It's growing out nicely, and actually looks pretty good, so I am not worried about it.  I just trim my bangs every 3 or 4 weeks. 

I like that I can wear my hair wavy, and that I can choose to comb it when it's wet, and wear it relatively straight.  It's nice to have options.

Dave FINALLY got to talk to his dad this past week!!  He texted the director of the facility on a week day, and asked her to have someone take a phone to Pop and let them talk.

After weeks of being ignored when he tried to get this to happen, THAT worked.  Hopefully, he will do this at least once a week now.

Pop was doing fine... well, as fine as can be expected.

There's really nothing else to report.  Our world has gotten pretty small, being home 24/7. 

I am off to make our traditional Sunday breakfast, and this evening, we are hoping to drive out toward the northwest to look for the comet at sunset.

Have a good week!
