Sally's GF3 thread

[Sally PB]

When we redid the bathroom in our house in GR (30 years ago! man, time flies!), hubby put up a nice piece of wood, poly'd it, screwed it in place at the head of the tub. Since I had no idea what he was doing, he explained, if anyone ever needs to access the plumbing, 8 screws and there it is.

That showed me I'd married a winner!

I attended the funeral of one of hubby's former coworker. I knew of this man, more than I knew him.

It was a very nice service, with some nice remembrances of Terry by his family and pastor.

Sadly, I have another funeral to go to on Friday, for the wife of another coworker. The four of us used to meet for brunch, but not recently, I'm sorry to say.

I have another plantar wart, on the other foot this time. It's nowhere near as big as the one I took off last winter.

Today is day 1 of treatment. We'll see how long it takes.

I just finished reading, "Death is But a Dream."

Having gone to two funerals this week, it was an uplifting book to read.

Some interesting clouds after yesterday's storm.

Same trees on March 23rd, just for a laugh.

Sally,, Did you test for Covid?
Being asymptomatic means you can still infect others, if I'm correct

 

[Sally PB]

Uh... no... didn't test. Actually, I'd totally forgotten about it. I bet hubby has too.

I wonder if the pharmacy at the store has the tests.

 

[cavemanrich]

I'm sure they do. Good to have on hand if needed.
If you haven't had symptoms for a few days, chances are,, you didn't get infected. And are not likely to be infectious even if asymptomatic.
I'm not a doctor,,, and I don't play one on TV.
Do you remember that line from long ago.

Sally, that is the accepted understanding of Covid these days. No more 14 days quarantine. I think its 3 days,,, and back to work.

Just a heads up on the tests. They do expire after some time.

Yes, I do!

Another blast from the past was the tag line, "It's ok, I had Subway for lunch!"

https://www.nytimes.com/2003/09/22/...campaign-assures-customers-they-can-have.html

"The new commercials use lines like ''Subway, good so you don't always have to be'' and ''It's O.K., I had Subway'' to supplement the chain's longtime theme, ''Eat fresh.''

The campaign includes scenes of Subway customers indulging themselves with mischievous behavior both food-related -- eating ice cream from the carton or snacks from a vending machine -- and otherwise. Each time, the rationale is that Subway meals can make you, as an announcer says, ''feel good about being good and O.K. about being bad.''
