I don't know whether or not to put on a mask, go outside to leap up and down on the porch. I've been watching the tracking program showing my Amazon Fresh driver exploring my neighborhood. He has driven by the house twice.
Now, I have almost all the stuff I forgot on my last Kroger's order :) How I managed to forget the trash bags and cat treats is beyond me. The cats kept reminding me we only had 1/2 a tub left. Anyone know why we're having a Rotel shortage? Soap, disinfecting wipes, and bleach I can understand those shortages. Canned chopped tomatoes and green chiles? Why are we out of those? Is there some weird internet rumor you can distill the stuff into a Lysol substitute, LOL. |

Hard to tell with the masks.
I wrote an Email to the "Ministerpräsident" asking him why in school with distance under 1,5 meter we don't need masks and at the time must carry them on the floor, the campus and elsewehre, where there is a penalty of €50 to 150E not wearing a mask. No answer yet and I think I will not get answer. May be shortage of workers coming from Mexico on the fields due to Corona, Crona infection at the plants who can tomatoes and chili? We that in the slaughterhouses but there was no shortage on meat. We had that problem with workers on the field. Not as many as last year coming and there seems to have been infection problems which where not recorded in public except for two instances. Forgetting chopping some items, may be we are getting older. Will go at ten o'clock and buy flowers for mom to tkae to fathers grave. Yesterday the flowers selled out before I was chopping. It was pay day and then people start buying like crazy and as if there is no supply tommorrow. I thought someone trumpeted to inject or drink disinfections. |

Still mowing with the push mower (powered wheels). About got away from me. I had to go over half of it at 6 inches and go back over it at 4 inches. I got exercise and did not have to get the riding mower out. Low 80’s F. deg here and heat wave out west.

Thanks for reminding me. I need to text my lawn guy. On Wednesday, we had our first major rain since June. My grass was brown and crispy on Wednesday, green on Thursday, half a foot high on Friday.... Yesterday it made a grab for my neck as I walked to the car. Today, it's singing Feed Me, Seymour and growing toward the neighbor's swing set. I probably should have passed on the Audrey Jr. grass seed.

Got some seed of Sweetgrass / Mariengras (Hierochloe odorata) but have to wait until March with the seed. Tiny seeds and not so many seeds.
Have been ordered to seed them in flower pots and not on the small garden. Hope that next year in March tehy will grow. In many places this seed is sold out, for what reason ever. |

Got to remember to get grass seed and sow it on the spots where the stumps were chipped up.

Good luck with the sweetgrass. The seeds have really poor germination rates, around 10%. Once they are established, they are aggressive spreaders.

I've rethought my position on the death penalty. I'm in favor of it for folks owning and using robo-dialing equipment.
I'm on the national and Texas do not call lists. Have been for years. But it doesn't do any good for these foreign companies. You can't do anything to them. Yesterday around 3pm, I got a phone call from an automated system that claimed to be support for a large computer company. They were spoofing the caller ID. I hung up and went out to my studio. When I came back in just before 5pm. I had 11 calls from the same system on my answering service. For the next hour the phone rang every 5-10mins all with the same message. They were using a different number every time. I overflowed the blocking list capacity in an hour. I called the phone company, whose solution was to try to sell me their bundled internet, TV and phone service. They thought, but didn't actually know, that I could block the entire area code these calls were coming from. The installation costs were north of a $100 and the contract term was 3 years. Oh, and they couldn't do this until the beginning of next month. I finally turned off the ringers. By 10 pm last night, I had 27 messages from the same outfit. The calls seem to have stopped overnight. But, they've picked up again this morning. When the holiday over, I'm going be calling the Texas Public Utilities commission. I'm sure they won't be able to do anything. But, at least I can vent my spleen. |

Extend that to certain call center operators operating out of India and Kenia.
I can block complete area codes in case I want to charge the work. It is cumbersome on my system and part of the contract since it was an ISDN access. We had somne calls from India which claimed to be Micrsosoft technicans. We have something similar, called "Bundesnetzagentur". I pray that the calls will stop. |

We have an auto warranty company that calls everyday ! Sometimes 5 times a day ! We unplugged the house phone and we each block their number everytime they call. They just spoof a new number and keep calling ! We just quit answering the phone , turned our ringers down and try to ignore them. Then block all the missede call numbers we don't know ! Grrrrr......

In my neck of the woods the Spanish would get me in over my head in about 10 secs, LOL.
Pardon me if I've told this one before. Way back in when I was postdocing, I used to get telemarketing calls from a now deceased cell phone company. This was in the early days of the do not call and back before automated sales pitches. They would call every other day during dinner. Finally, one day I told the guy I was interested, but I had some questions. I could practically hear him start drooling in anticipation of a sale. This was also during the days when there was some speculation that radiation from cell phones could cause brain cancer. I told him I was concerned about the effects of the "waves" out the phones. He starts this whole long spiel about energies emitted, various studies, and headsets he could sell me. At the end he assures me they are "perfectly safe." I wait a second, then I ask, "So you're telling me the grey aliens can't use them to control my mind?" Silence, followed by a weak "Pardon?" I repeated myself. Before I finished the line went dead. He hung on me. Between that day and the demise of that company, they never called back. |

I just had some co-workers tell me they are receiving cold calls of a religious nature, the christians, mormons, and jehovas witnesses cant go door to door right now so they are peddling by phone. If the number isn't in my phone, I don't answer.
