Ring the doorbell. Temperature check. Sanitize. See the doctor/PA. No other patients around. I had a wellness check in another facility and felt very safe, although there was another patient in the waiting room. I was so surprised that I was allowed in my husband's hospital room after his shoulder surgery. He has a post-op appt tomorrow, but I don't plan to join him. Now to decide if I really want to have my teeth cleaned in the coming months. It's been almost a year...<br /><br />I hope you are able to see your family over Christmas. Thanksgiving was so disappointing for so many. :(Les in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15053880852764886416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-7428048697103413402020-12-05T18:46:07.576-05:002020-12-05T18:46:07.576-05:00Stacy, I understand as my daughter is teaching rem...Stacy, I understand as my daughter is teaching remote as well as doing remote with her 1st and 3rd grade girls - a real challenge.(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-71322974434886781612020-12-05T18:44:55.407-05:002020-12-05T18:44:55.407-05:00Hamnet is very good, not my normal pick for sure b...Hamnet is very good, not my normal pick for sure but I'm into it.(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-78584177098818655882020-12-05T18:43:45.593-05:002020-12-05T18:43:45.593-05:00I agree Helen, some offices feel much safer than o...I agree Helen, some offices feel much safer than others.(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-49017471172227519082020-12-05T18:43:14.568-05:002020-12-05T18:43:14.568-05:00I hope you like Greenlights more than I did.I hope you like Greenlights more than I did.(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-33359045696217425372020-12-05T18:42:54.236-05:002020-12-05T18:42:54.236-05:00Let's hope 2021 is better.

Still unsure about what Christmas will look like. One of our NYC daughters is here working and quarantining in our now-vacant condo, so she will be with us for the holiday. Waiting to see what our other NYC daughter can arrange. Fingers crossed!
