I retired from home and hospital teaching when it became apparent that for the foreseeable future instruction would be online. Having failed Zoom, I am in no way able to set up sites and links. One advantage of living alone is that lockdown is almost just another day, so I am managing well. Fortunately (or perhaps not), I have never been so bored that I feel the urge to clean. I treated myself to a subscription to Britbox so I have something to watch while I do my daily treadmill. My sons and their wives are staying safe and healthy so far. We stay in contact via text and phone calls. Jeff Valentine called me out of the blue, saying just because we can’t meet in person doesn’t mean we can’t call each other. A great idea! Why not call someone you see only at reunions?
