I enjoy lots of them in the morning with coffee instead of watching the news. <br />I am appalled how low our country has fallen and the complete disregard and dismissal of all scientific data. I can’t believe how people can be so cavalier about the safety of others.

It's always good to hear from trained art curators although I was amused to hear about "half squares."<br />DH dropped a few things off at Goodwill a month ago but they are closed again now. They can't store all the stuff when they can't sell or ship some themselves. <br />We are all supposed to wear masks but it seems most of my neighbors find excuses not to do it. So disappointing. Between their breathing issues, exercise excuses, drinking while walking so they "can't wear a mask" I'm just staying home. <br />Whatever it takes I'm voting. Several people have to go.

Such good information on Chinese Coins, I'd love to make another more traditional one than my 'split' Chinese Coins made some time ago.<br />Covid - Ann, even though I am over here in New Zealand we see nightly on our TV screens and in our daily papers the horror ravaging countries in the world, a few countries more than others and I applaud you for putting down your thoughts here. We cannot understand the reasoning behind some of the decisions made, or not made, by various governments, it beggars belief indeed! Our world has sadly changed I believe, and will we ever return to normality! I do pray that we will.

I thought at first you were scrounging for coins to pay your taxes! Coins are in short supply now, so maybe they might be worth more than they think! It sure is sad how the virus is considered a hoax, or that people think that any deaths are acceptable. I guess they are okay until they hit home.Shelina (formerly known as Shasta)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03290945204269323129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-231509571353812426.post-37841100518242387552020-07-14T12:34:37.931-05:002020-07-14T12:34:37.931-05:00As your neighbouring country to the north, we are ...As your neighbouring country to the north, we are a somewhat horrified about what is happening in your country with respect to this devastating virus. It's sad and scary. While we are in an area that is currently doing alright, we are still in lockdown (stage 2, partial opening of businesses and restaurants). My workplace is not considering returning to the office until October, if then. IF physical schools open in September, not all children will be returning to the classroom. I don't know any parents that want to risk their children's health (potentially for the rest of their life), or their life for that.Gale Bulkleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01589596098401440854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-231509571353812426.post-39406074825794685362020-07-14T11:50:46.607-05:002020-07-14T11:50:46.607-05:00That lingering heart and lung damage is what I can...That lingering heart and lung damage is what I can't seem to make some people realize.

SO worth watching! And you don't need to preach to me about the COVID mess we are all in. The numbers are rising rapidly here due to so many who refuse to mask and distance - the hospitals are opening their surge areas and pulling in any and all nurses they can hire. And it will, sadly, get worse before it gets better. Yes, we do need to V-O-T-E for candidates who value and respect respect science, nature, and each other.Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-231509571353812426.post-53737938870882682712020-07-14T07:00:53.546-05:002020-07-14T07:00:53.546-05:00I watched the video of the quilt exhibit and it wa...I watched the video of the quilt exhibit and it was well done. <br /><br />It's great you are getting house projects done. Around here I tried to take some items to the Goodwill, but they weren't accepting anything because they had run out of room. Their procedure was to disinfect everything and then let it sit for four days. At the store I went to they had two semi trailers full waiting for the four days to pass. <br /><br />I agree with you on the covid problems. The city council here just passed an ordinance that you have to wear a mask, but the governor already said masks were mandatory for the county because of the rising covid cases. I started wearing a mask in March when we were told we didn't need too and I plan on continuing to wear one until the world gets a handle on this virus. To say that this is a hoax is true denial. 135,000+ deaths from covid is not a hoax. Now the POTUS is taking advice from a former game show host! This is just crazy. patty a.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01861433552460661701noreply@blogger.com
