I'll be answering only a few at a time, NB>> probably... :) DS> Well, my late Mom's computer hadn't got much usage for nearly 2 DS> years... it's good that it has "found a new life". As for slow DS> answering, there are other things in life besides BBSing. Indeed... and even than messaging... I am gradually getting closer to caught up... we shall see how well it goes... ;) NB>> Yup, and Cristobal is spreading some remnants up here at the moment... NB>> we got extreme heat today, and there's some chance of showers and NB>> T-storms overnight tonight... and tomorrow is supposed to be MUCH NB>> cooler... from 93 today to only 76 or so for a high tomorrow.... ;) DS> For the most part, Arkansas was unscathed...we got heavy rain and DS> gusty winds, but no tornadoes that I'm aware of. It was in the 50s here DS> overnight, and I had to put the heat on. The furnace hasn't run here for months... when it finally got chilly, the most we've done was to close the attic door so that the residual heat (after cooling down from the extreme heat) wouldn't escape out the top.... All we have for cooling though is windows to open and fans to move and exhaust the hot air.... :) NB>> Well, schools and colleges did close for the rest of the school year, NB>> and now there's discussion about reopening or not in the fall... A lot NB>> of stuff is still closed here, too, although we are slowly getting some NB>> things reopened.... DS> I'm not sure if the schools will open this fall or not...but DS> Governor Asa Hutchinson said we'd move to Phase 2 with the restaurants, DS> etc. on June 15. We shall see about the fall... probably depends on whether the virus resurges too badly or at all... We've moved to phase 3 (of 4) here, which opened a lot of stuff I've been waiting for.... still a lot of restrictions and distancing and protective measures needed, so things aren't normal normal, but it's more normal than it's been for a long while.... NB>> By then, maybe things will be happening again... social distancing NB>> might make square dancing a little weird, too... DS> I wouldn't mind dancing with a mask and gloves on. I could dance DS> without touching hands, but so many more dancers don't know the DS> definitions that well. It would be rather loosely formed squares... one would need to be a master dancer to keep track... ;) NB>> So do I... so I've not even really been paying attention to whether NB>> they were open or closed.... DS> Some of the local malls were closed for a time. I know ours were as well, from reports from others, but I don't know what phase they ended up in... maybe 4, maybe 3.... NB>>> Masks are now required at our Wegmans... but not gloves... DS>> I wear my mask and gloves when I go out, but with staying at home DS>> until I start driving again, I don't worry about it. NB>> I figure that gloves are more a choice item, whether or not to use... DS> I have to see what the library will require. That's something else that's been closed, and I don't know where they fall, either.... DS>> Too little to laugh at nowadays. NB>> Just have to look harder, I guess.... ;) DS> Some folks use me as "comedy relief". The trick is to be able to give yourself 'comedy relief' as well.. :) NB>> At least she was resourceful... ;) Guess she was able to hook the NB>> panties around her ears and keep them on that way... ;) She might NB>> have used her bra similarly, too...
