Not enough negativity

Today was Day 10 for Diane, so we each did a rapid test.

Hers was negative (hooray!).

The “Test” line was vivid on mine before the liquid got to the “Control” line. I’ll try again in a couple of days.

We did get to see the last part of the lunar eclipse tonight; I would have needed a tripod to get a photo with my big camera, but the iPhone was more amenable.

I took a RAW photo with the iPhone, too – unfortunately, not until just after totality had ended, so there’s a little bright spot at the bottom of the Moon.

I cropped the same photo really tightly – it looks interesting, but I suspect the artifacts are dominant in this version.

A quiet Shabbat

We Zoomed to Torah Study for the first time in over a month; this week’s portion is Behar (Leviticus 25:1–26:2). The discussion focused on the sabbatical year and why it’s important to rest the land (and ourselves) deeply from time to time. I enjoyed being back!

We spent the rest of the day at home and taking walks; it was the first really warm day of spring, so we didn’t want to go out in the middle of the day. And of course, we continued to isolate.

The most constructive thing I did today was to decide that I didn’t really have to read two months’ worth of the New York Times Book Review – a quick skim was more than adequate. And the same fate met another pile of magazines and newsletters that were haunting me. It’s not a big accomplishment, but it helps!
