Tell me something good
Not going into details but it has been a horrible week and I am slowly drifting into poor me. Tell me something good going on in your life to cheer me up, please?

Re: Tell me something good
This is an odd one - and I'm not sure I was going to share it, but anyway. I like to do something at the weekend which combines a cycle ride with going to a specific place and buying something. The trouble is, in lockdown, the buying something bit gets knocked on its head.
I cycled last weekend - and headed for the centre of London as I normally would. And eventually I realised I was going to where the remaining CD shop in London was. Only when I got there, it wasn't there. I expected to be depressed. But the odd thing was I wasn't. I felt a curious type of exhilaration. That was because it was a rip-off shop - with wigs like maybe 3X the normal price and tacky clothes and whatever else.
They had exploited the CD's fear of going into an ordinary shop to make money - which I thought was pretty disgusting. And now they weren't there. So I felt an odd kind of triumph - of kind of surviving and they hadn't.

Shopping being what it is, my wife ordered a blouse on line. Too big, no return. She gave it to me, however

Dad is out of the hospital and into rehab. He was in there a month and a half. Sounds like rehab will be about the same.
