It Just Kept Growing

It was finally time this weekend to let Jo get out the clippers and scissors and have at my hair.  Fortunately, I keep it fairly short and my do isn't too complicated - one of the joys/challenges of having very straight and fine hair and oh yeah, being a slowly balding guy.  We didn't get a really good before photo, but here is it afterwards.  She didn't do too bad of a job although she definitely had more of a calling for HR than cosmetology.  My hair is sort of a cross between what Moe from the 3 Stooges had and a bowl cut.  Jo really needs to work on her feathering techniques.  But it is shorter and since we did it on our very windy deck no clean up was necessary.  I have been told that Jo plans to work on her skills during her next attempt on my hair - fingers crossed that salons are reopened within the next 6 weeks.

For our outdoor activity we have been working on our garden.  We helped lay out straw in the pathways at the community garden we are now using and have planted some lettuce, peas, and onions.  Now we just need the temperatures to warm up to get some green shoots going.  We have been struggling to get to the 50's this week.  Other than that, we continue to get a long walk in every morning and this week got to enjoy Bucky practicing good hygiene practices along with some new Canada geeselings (gooselings, baby geese?).  Quite cute, but Mom and Dad weren't too happy with us as we tried to get a photo.

Other than that, our spirits are still up and we can laugh ourselves silly at the things we are doing to stay virus free - especially the hour long sterilization process that our groceries now have to endure to move from our car to our refrigerator or shelves.  But I'm sure everyone has stories like that now.
