Good Morning, Everyone ~ Yest. I learned that our friend from church died at 1:30 a.m. In his family's words, "He flew home to Jesus!" He worked for our police dept. for many years. One of his 2 daus. became a police officer. His body had a police escort when he was taken to the funeral home at 4:30 a.m. Of course, no funeral now due to C-19. A memorial service when this C-19 crisis is over. He was only 60 y.o. Prayers for his family would be appreciated.
Another friend from church, who has Parkinson's, fell yest. & hit his head. He's in the hosp. with bleeding in the brain. He's allowed only 1 visitor at a time, & they would not permit his wife to stay overnight. A friend stayed overnight with her at home so she wouldn't be alone.
Our test mtg. yest. on Zoom went well & was fun. I discovered I could not use Firefox to get on. I had to use Google Chrome. There were 6 of us; one person doesn't have a web cam; we couldn't see her, but she had the audio. She may try to buy a web cam. We're still learning the various features of the program. One can have up to 100 participants at a time. Two of the older ladies in our group have chosen not to participate. The technology can be challenging for seniors.
I kept busy yest. Cooked up beans for DH, did 2 loads of laundry. It was sunny and 61 deg. Today will be "church" (on line), working on my BSF lesson, and sewing if I get to it. It seems to be on the back burner right now. I'm feeling a bit "down" with all this C-19 business. Plus, I think the pain in my hip is part of the problem. It limits what I feel like I can do.
I've shared that Irish priest's poem with several folks. I first saw it on Bonnie Hunter's blog. I searched for it on line & found at:

Not sure why the web address is being altered here. It should say coronavirus before the lockdown. It's worth a read.
