"Speaking of loss, I have to attend a 'virtual' funeral next Tuesday, of an old school friend who got Covid for Christmas.
So...here's a timely reminder to all: don't just look after those lovely pooches, but yourselves too!! The bug is so, so sneaky."
This sadness is all-to-frequent. I got a verified case of it doing a good deed for an (even more) elderly friend. Yet I survived without too much difficulty, lucky me! Then, too, little Chicory was with me the whole time and never had any problem (except getting me up to dispense food, etc.).
I am sorry for your and so many people's loss of loved ones and friends. There is small consolation in the fact that most of the folks communicating here are "of a certain age" so as to be in line now for the vaccinations.
