On Saturday we awoke to a few inches of snow. By the afternoon, it had all but disappeared.
Yellow . . . Here's Emma in her raincoat checking out the daffodils.
Purplelicious . . . An Easter surprise from my godchild and her family. I love the sparkly container.
Red . . . This amaryllis bulb was purchased before Christmas, but though I planted up two others, this one remained in the box. (I still have another one to plant up.)
And now the smiles . . .
Just think of how much time we have spent making masks when folks have come up with their own creative alternatives . . . though I do think the scuba outfit is a tad much. My favorite . . . the man in the checkout line with the plastic water bottle. Brilliant! That one cracks me up!!!
Governor Baker is on TV now giving an assessment of how things are going in Massachusetts as we are in the midst of the coronavirus surge. He announced among other things that all schools in the Commonwealth will be closed for the rest of the school year. That is the right decision and will allow teachers, principals, and administrators time to plan for a hopefully safe opening in September.
STOP!!!
Please stop here if you wish before I record grim coronavirus statistics.
As of Sunday . . .
Cases Deaths
World 2,501,156 171, 810
United States 788, 920 42, 458
Massachusetts 39,643 1,809
Massachusetts is third-highest in the number of cases behind New York and New Jersey.
Here is one item that struck me. The Boston Sunday Globe published sixteen pages of death notices.
