Pandemic Journal, Day 489

Once more, I had a busy day, but not much of what happened is worth writing about. I spent most of the day working on the Shir Hadash High Holy Day Honors – the program will be much better when I finish breaking it! There were also things to fix up in the assignment of honors – but it’ll be done soon. Or else.

Our friend Desi went to the Verizon store to get a new phone, and she’s spent the rest of the day beating it into submission. I’ve been called in for tech support a couple of times (which is why she wanted to get the new phone on this trip), but it’s been fun – and now I know a lot more about Android than I did two days ago. I’m sticking with Apple.

And two of our friends lost their mothers overnight. No matter when it happens, it’s too soon. May their memories be a blessing.

Pandemic Journal, Day 488

Today was a busy, busy day, and it has almost gotten away from me!

We began at the Farmers’ Market, as usual; Desi explored Los Gatos while Diane and I walked.

This afternoon, our trivia team came over to our house to meet Desi – a good time was had by all, or so we were told.

And after that, I got back to work on the Shir Hadash High Holy Day Honors. I think I’ve pretty much beaten the process into submission, but there are still a few questions outstanding. I’ll deal with the tomorrow – it’s late!
