Doomed Or Not . . .
Well, I think the blog email problem should be fixed. Jetpack, the WordPress plugin that handles the emailing of the blogs had updated itself (remember, I HATE updates) and somehow the configuration files got misconfigured.
The only problem now is that some people are getting more than one copy of the blog email.
Too many, Not enough! It’s always something. LOL
Brandi and Lowell sent over some great photos of the snow in Colorado.
That’s Pike’s Peak in the background.
And Landon seems to be making himself right at home.
Well, it seems the IRS’ Get My Payment website is now up so you can check on your check, but so far it has no information on either Jan or I. But I guess the check’s in the mail . . . eventually. I’ll keep checking.
When I left for work this morning I realized that I probably needed to stop for gas on the way, rather than waiting to get it on the way home at Costco like I usually do. So I pulled into the Circle K/Valero right out on Hwy 6 and filled up for $2.45 a gallon, 16¢ more than Costco. But, hey, when you need it.
However coming home this afternoon, I noticed it had jumped 10¢ a gallon since this morning. Yikes!
Well, you can now add Germany, France, Italy, and Spain to the cascading list of European countries who have suspended use of the AstraZeneca vaccine due to very serious side-effects.

So now 3 feet is OK?
“There’s this new study from researchers in Massachusetts, just out this week, it found no significant difference of coronavirus spread in schools where there was six feet of distancing vs. three feet of distancing. But that six foot requirement, that’s one of the main hurdles to reopening schools. Does this study suggest to you that three feet is good enough?” CNN’s Jake Tapper.
“It does indeed,” Fauci said. “What the CDC wants to do is they want to accumulate data. When the data shows that there is an ability to be 3 feet, they will act accordingly. They have clearly noted those data. They are, in fact, doing studies themselves. And when the data are just analyzed, and it’s going to be soon.”
“The CDC is very well-aware that data are accumulating making it look more like 3 feet are okay under certain circumstances. They’re analyzing that. And I can assure you within a reasonable period of time, quite reasonable, they will be giving guidelines according to data that they have,” he continued. “It won’t be very long, I promise you.”
Of course in England we’ve apparently got the never-ending ‘Lockdown’, going on for years apparently.
UK ‘only at the beginning’ of COVID nightmare with social distancing ‘to go on for years’
I just wish they’d all make up their mind.
Are we all DOOMED, or not.
