Unless you killed someone you probably wouldn’t expect to spend much time talking with friends through glass partitions. Or, maybe, like me, you’ve enjoyed that convenience as a regular at drive-throughs for meals, medicine and even money.

Now it’s more necessary for us to use those benefits due to coronavirus, and I’m even more grateful for deliveries of everything from newspapers to food and shoes to electronics.

I look forward to getting mail from the box off the porch, and try to get other exercise by chair dancing, or cleaning the bathtub and toilet.

It seemed prudent to clean the tub while I showered and washed my hair. I finally remembered to use the purple stuff the hairdresser prescribed to make my hair brighter. She’d said to use that shampoo and only leave it in for one minute.

So I did.

Or so I thought.

Before I dried my hair. Now it’s between laven

Now it’s between lavender and gray instead of my usual mouse brown with blonde highlights. And yes, I used the right bottle.

Although most of my days and nights aren’t that exciting, I’m proud to say my hands are probably cleaner than Pontius Pilate’s ever were. That makes me more thankful than ever for a hall cabinet filled with hand creams from the grandkids over the years. Some days are long with

Some days are long without face-to-face human contact so it’s lucky that I’m in my comfort zone with a remote control in one hand and a Dr Pepper in the other.

I try to limit my TV virus info time to a couple of news shows a day, and while my two cats sleep next to me I enjoy the “Too Cute” shows about kittens and puppies.

So far I haven’t been bored enough to clean house, get my income tax stuff together, or ferret out a bottle of self-tanner and give it a whirl.

I will confess that after 10 days using a high-dollar wrinkle remover that I can’t see any difference, but then again, maybe it wasn’t intended for 75-year-old women with geriatric acne whose face looks like it has already worn out a dozen bodies.

It didn’t help that I ignored the sun exposure warning on the remover bottle, but what’s a little sun burn.

Besides, it was such a beautiful day.

A sunny day.

A day of laughter by two boys who raced by on their bikes.

A day when a neighbor down the street walked her dog.

A day when lawn mowers roared, and you could smell the grass.

A day when I played with dirt in the flower bed, admired the green leaves from bulbs planted last year along with the blooming little purple flowers, even if they are weeds.

It was was a great day to see the world instead of looking at it through a TV screen, or a kitchen window.
