No no my dear I’m sorry I miss spoke .
we were called to go back to work ..
it was slow in the beginning but then it started to pick up and then it got really busy and right in the middle of the busy time .......they closed the building
down and said we needed to go home and quarantine once again until further notice.?
Three people in our building HAD covid! ?
Governor of NJ is closing us down one by one again. Says there is an
“Up tick” in covid cases???
I don’t have covid (thank god)
But if I did..... it could get me out of cleaning duties and fixing things around the dam house!!
I can’t sit still!!???
When we go back to work for good I will probably complain that I never get a chance to sit or relax! ???
Whahahahaha. mmmmm sounds familiar. But I am glad that you don't have covid. I wish my work said that we must work from home. I would be able to get a lot more done around the house.

I have noticed that I seemed to have picked up this nasty habit of saying a sentence in my head, typing it, posting it, only to read it much later and see that I have left a word or two out of the typed version.

This storm called ETA has given us rain every day for about 6 days so far. When it was moving east to west across the Keys we got the outer banks. Then stalled on Cuba and then headed NE. The whole time we got some wind and rain. Totally messed up Opo with the

I do and sometimes it's my phone's fault too. I caught it in the act the other day. It posted in the wrong thread. But it's ok though. Someone fixed it and I'm very thankful for that ?

Yep, all of the time. Luckily this Forum has a few minutes of grace time where one can go back in and edit things go make you look a whole lot smarter.

Ok. I've not tried that way but I bet I can too. I'm on a smartphone and go through my emails so I have a little icon.? I guess now I have another way to be a bug in the rug.?

My stories start out then have gaps then an end where I then say “oh, I forgot to tell you ....” (in the beginning)...
AND NO..... ITS NOT BECAUSE IF COVID!!
