Day 2

Tuesday, March 17, 2020

St. Patrick's Day is much subdued out in the world today. I hear that bars are being asked to either tone it down or close altogether.

Like many, I am concerned about a number of things - personal and for our present world. That sounds a tad pompous but that's how it is.

I pay a lot of attention to politics - local, provincial, federal and international stuff.

I see that our county has restricted meetings and is doing other things to minimize people contact - good. Provincially, the premier sounded like a leader the other day in what people should be doing and not doing - excellent. Federally, our prime minister sounded like a leader too - excellent. Internationally, someone must have gotten to the US president and told him that if he didn't act like a proper president, he wouldn't get re-elected - he sounded better than I've seen him before. You have probably guessed that I don't like him at all.

I watch CBC News Network, BBC and CNN for news. When I can't take any more in without blowing a gasket, I watch movies. I read. I read and post on FB. I play computer games. I watch my Tax Free Savings Account decline rapidly.

While I try to be positive without going all "Pollyanna-ish" on folks, it's getting a bit more difficult each day.

I'll end this morning with a wish that all my relatives and friends stay well over the next weeks and months.
