Hi Classmates
I am with you, City, on exercise and diet affecting mental health. I have been better at both those since new year and feel better for it. I had this mental image of magically emerging from the pandemic feeling better than I went into it. I have a lot of work on all fronts for that to happen.
FK, I also feel for the many people around the world who live in one room, or studio or on their own. We are lucky. Great news about your wife settling into her new job. I hope her interactions with people are not stressful under the current conditions.
Venus, that is lovely story about your squirrel. It is rare that a squirrel can let their guard down enough to interact with you and show their personality. I hope you don't have too many feral cats in your area, they can sometimes wreck havoc on birds and small animals. I love cats and often forget what masterful hunters they are.
I better dig in. I got up early as I was restless about everything on my plate today.
Have a healthy, happy and sober day all
