I am thankful I am working, thankful I am able to work. Everyone is staying confined to their homes except for rare and necessary outings. Bruce and I did not go anywhere for thanksgiving. Layer that week, two of our families began with covid symptoms. We believe both families were infected and tests will verify. One of the indicators is loss of smell and taste. Also my daughter and husband stayed in bed and slept most of the day. That certainly says something. They are doing ok but three of my grandchildren are now ill. They don’t live near us so we are not affected. I am facing a lot of medical tests so I don’t want to interrupt that schedule. I will fill you in as soon as results come in. That always takes a while. My pain was so intense and unbearable that I put myself on a liquid diet. I expected my doctors to have enough knowledge to relieve my pain. I asked repeatedly for help but when they had no suggestions, that is when I cut out solid foods. I went twelve days and then started with some mild, soft foods. I seem to be ok now, just slight discomfort. Anyway, I am painting when I am too tired dipping chocolate. I.ve been doing that about a week. I did not make any last year. Ummm, it is so good. I do not celebrate pagan holidays but winter is the only good time to make chocolate. It stays nice in the freezer. I’ll post a photo. Also I will get an image of the birthdate subject I am working on. Blessings to you all..
