Been walking the dogs (two dogs = two walks). The dogs are really happy that we're home all day.

Also, we used to eat out all the time. We've discovered that Mrs. Malabar is a great cook! Who knew?!

On the downside, I saw four vultures sitting on a roof. They must wonder what has happened to all the roadkill.

Dogs are happy, extra activity for you and a Mrs that can cook is always a good thing!  Perhaps in the next few weeks you’ll discover some other hidden skills...wink wink.

We have a bunch of Aloe plants that we have been harvesting to use to make hand sanitizer.  We were able to purchase the other ingredients and produce quite a bit that we use at work and have given away.

My wife started a whole bunch more out on our property since Aloe is useful for many things.

I’ve been hearing some “feel good” stories as well.  It’s great to hear people are coming together, just sucks it takes things like this or 9/11 for it to happen. 

Good for you guys to get hand sanitizer out to others.  I’ve always kept aloe plants as well.  Just never really used them.  How do you process it to use in sanitizer?  At best I’d just cut a “leaf” off and put the “gel” on a burn.  But I rarely even do that.
