Pretty Quiet

What with high COVID statistics and very cold weather we haven't budged very far from our spot by the fire. I have been reading Kierkegaard out loud to Ellen, I read an Alexander McCall Smith novel (two actually - # 20 AND 21 - in the Ma Romatswe series); I've gone to the pool, gone on the Dummerston Zoom meeting (Monday), the Retired Ministers Zoom meeting (Wed.), the CTS Wednesday Noon Reflections Zoom meeeting (Wed.), Centering Prayer Zoom session (Wed.), etc. Lots of Zoom! What would we do without Zoom! We've watched the evening news. favorite Masterpiece shows (E.g., Grantchester and Father Brown), watched a movie on Amazon Prime (Swallows and Amazons), and so on. A quiet week but a nice one. We almost went to Maine to visit Jim and Mary today thro Saturday, but Jim was having a procedure done on his eyelid today and it seemed not a good time for them to have company. Maybe next week.

There are four Tar Heels basketball games coming up in the next week. They are not being televised nationally, but I think I can listen to them on Chapel Hill radio on the phone. They were outstanding against Georgia Tech, and then totally collapsed against Miami. So we'll see which team shows up for these upcoming games.
