How is the corona virus affecting you?

With more people ordering carry-out (takeaway) in the States, we have a new problem:

Ketchup shortage hits restaurants across the United States

I have embraced the idea of using things other than ketchup on my fries, so this isn't an issue with me, but I know people who will find this to be problematic. Ms. Late Night, for one, likes to use a 1:1 ketchup:fries ratio (and I'm probably being a bit generous here...she would happily use more ketchup).

I saw this at the pharmacy counter today. They were eight dollars each, and I decided to get three of them. With my insurance, they ended up being free. Except, they are not really free. If you look at the packaging, which I didn’t do until just now, there’s a $99 activation charge to find out the results. I am hoping I can submit this to my insurance company for reimbursement.

Toyota moved their North American headquarters from LA to about ten miles from me. Californians are everywhere. They came here and home values doubled. My home is worth twice what I paid for it, thanks to Californians who think anything less than a million dollars for a three bedroom house is a bargain. When Toyota moved here, I had realtors calling me almost daily making offers for my house, which was not for sale.

I expected Covid to have a negative effect on home values, but it hasn't, at least where I live.

Ford Motor Company (my employer) has come through in a big way for me and other Ford employees. They have made special arrangements to vaccinate employees and family members this week. I will bring my son Monday and my daughter Tuesday. This is such a tremendous relief.
