I'm happy to see the film clip resulting from our previous discussions, all good pieces of advice. Post Covid vaccination, with much of the rest of the world returning to normalcy, I am still being exceedingly cautious. I know I may not have very good immunity, if any, and I have learned that friends who I thought would be vaccinated have rejected the idea and remain a risk, very disappointing and dangerous for the immunosuppressed population. I had a great idea for a red dot in the middle of the forehead for the unvaccination and a green one for those who are vaccinated but apparently that is too politically incorrect and no one's getting on board with me; in Florida we aren't permitted to solicit proof of vaccination for some reason unknown to me. So, I continue to mask when outside my known circle and in any public place, to maintain a careful hand sanitizing routine and continue a fairly solitary existence, a small price to pay to continue to feel well and avoid the possibility fatal illness and organ ejection. My next project is to begin to do counted cross stitch embroidery again and to get a kitty cat for company.

@silverwoman, If you feel someone walking at a safe distance beside you, It is me! Yes, I'm the one wearing the mask in this mostly unmasked population.

I am happy to see that you are ready to get into counted cross stitching again. I am eager to begin my monthly prayer Shawl Ministry Monthly meeting/work sessions. We meet in a huge room with plenty of space to spread apart! I even have a friend who will take over if/when I feel uncomfortable. There is something special about the feel of the thread or yarn that we use to create a thing of beauty - a work of art!

Here is a discussion that I want you to see, and to view, and to enjoy and even join because it is all about Art and what other are doing at all levels.
Grab a comfy chair, and prepare to be inspired!
