Who knows, maybe they --> Who knows? Maybe they

catching it and releasing every --> catching and releasing it every

Bye, bye the Bahamas! --> Bye, bye Bahamas! OR Bye, bye to the Bahamas!

Hi Iza. Cute little post here. I liked this especially well: "I was hoping to go fishing, but I'm in quarantine...quite indefinitely! So, I am practicing safe distancing with a bucket. I am doing a safe fishing method. I have taken my goldfish and I am catching it and releasing every half hour."

Very funny. :) Bob

But your kitties are happy you are home as they can't go to the Bahamas with you. And that poor goldfish! I'm thinking that goldfish is going to write a complaint to P&PC about being caught every half hour.

I think there's a certain indefinite future fo we retirees, we don't know what the future holds because of this near invisible enemy that lurks to ambush the unsuspecting. And we're supposed to be vulnerable, well done Iza, blessings, Roy

Your piece speaks of the frustrations we all feel in dealing with this virus. There seems to be no end in sight, there is no place to go, nothing to do but sit home. Day after day it drags on and on. Hang in there. My guess is they will have a vaccine by the end of the year. estory

Hello there, Iza

This damned virus has buggered up every potential plan made this year it seems. Ah well... at least it isn't something like that bad ole, untreatable Bubonic Plague way back, or similar.

I loved your 'Go planet sign!'

All things pass, my friend, and this will too :)

Ps... maybe rotate the goldfishes a bit so as not to wear them out?

much love

The virus really has disrupted life as we know it and planned it. We just have to make new plans and learn to be happy with them. Adjustment is the key.
