Not to be depressive, but the world has documented 40M cases, a drop in the bucket compared to the total population figures. They are talking about level 5 lockdown, which would be awful for the winter. It's actually pretty stupid because being winter, if we are permitted to drive some distance, we could just go off and walk in the woods. See nature and recharge as we did this week in Wild Nephin, a rewilding project nearby where 11k hectares of land are being left as wilderness and national park. I hope it works and nature takes its course. 
Otherwise, we'd be stuck indoors with people coughing in our faces. Alex and I got our flu shots and I had my teeth cleaned. Still need to get a GP visit in before the winter outbreak becomes too bad in these parts. 
Still can't write and people are getting rabid. Facebook is exploding with rancour. I will wait until after the election. If Biden wins, I start writing. If Trump wins, I crawl into a hole and lock out the world.
