Need to laugh? Here you go!

Ontario has banned groups larger than five. If you’re a family of 6, you’re all about to find out who’s the least favorite!

The longer this goes on, the harder it will be to return to a society where pants and bras are required!

Happy hour is starting earlier and earlier.

If this keeps up, I’ll be pouring wine in my cereal!

Today’s Weather? Room temperature

30 Days Hath September, April, June and November All the rest have 31 … except March which had 8000

Pettipants are a type of lingerie worn by women. The name is a portmanteau of petticoat (ultimately from French petit, "small&quot and pants. Pettipants are similar to long shorts, though they may be made from material such as cotton and lace, and usually have ruffles down each leg.

...it just seems like a fever dream that's shuffling in front of my eyes like a deck of cards. In March, we were faced with a totally unprecedented set of circumstances Now, we're used to it. Also--my brother got the virus in mid-March, and waiting for him to recover seemed to take forever. He's still weak, but out of the woods, and that's affected my time sense, too...

The laugh is definitely needed. I've been on medical leave these past two weeks, and on Friday my doctors have cleared me to resume work today. However I'm waiting on the company DOT doctor to concur. Doesn't help with the anxiety considering the current work environment.

I had planned to do so much while I was stuck at home. I have since discovered that when I used to say that I didn't have the time to do certain things. I now realize that it's just because I'm just downright lazy.
