Saturday, Day 0, Surrender?

The government is not making people check in any more. They don't use the app, they don't use the app data, and so many people just sail on by without checking in, it's criminal.

I keep feeling like everyone in charge is just sticking their heads in the sand about this damn plague and hoping it goes away. Nevermind the thousands who die of it. Nevermind the thousands who are incapacitated by it. As long as the money flows, all is well.

This WILL bite them all in the butt and I can only hope I don't suffer because of it.

I still don't want to look at the news, but this gets to me and is the reason WHY I don't want to look at the news. Bleh.

I'm going to stop measuring the stats, too. I just can't do it any more. No more days without infection. They're just not going to happen any more. Still tagging my blog with Plague Diary because the firkin Plague has NOT gone away.

AND I shall be renewing Mayhem's driving lessons. He's been a long time away from the wheel so refresher course in the suburban sprawl is in order.

Onwards.

Tuesday, Day 0, Patreon

Still not looking at the stats or the news, but I know it's not getting better. I just can't look, any more. It's giving me horrendous morbs.

Miss Chaos has supplies enough for more than a few lunches, and a sammich kit in case the hungries get her at school or if she somehow forgets to pack a decent lunch. Yay.

I still have to find a local source of fresh and unadulterated flour because waiting for it in the post is

Vax news: Unavailable because of improper formatting

I feel increasingly like my government has abandoned me and every other ordinary citizen in favour of keeping the cash flow up. Damnit.

I have to go out and acquire a calendar so I can keep track of nonsense. Including school hols. And, let's be honest, decorate the kitchen a little bit. Since
