DAY 8 - Saturday - Jerry's Still AOK - Kids Improve - New Tool Arrives

Major Exposures Tolerated - This is how Covid Mary and I sit for 3-4 hours every night watching TV the past 8+ days. I figured this close proximity would be a good test for the strategies we're using as suggested by recent medical literature. Gotta say though that sitting this close during da…
