Re: Checking in... anyone still here?

I've been taking 2 hour naps in the afternoon for about a decade. But a 
month or so ago I started needing a nap in the morning. I'd recently 
bought a box of _really_ tasty tea(*), so now I have a cuppa with 
breakfast to get me through the morning.

Doing exercises twice a day to deal with a minor backache - it 
discourages me from taking long walks, but otherwise can be ignored.

Lee just finished collating issue 592 of her RPG APA, Alarums and 
Excursions. She's shutting down her other fanzine, Xenofilkia because of 
a shortage of contributors. The March issue will be the last.

We're avoiding travel because of COVID, and I have a mild case of cabin 
fever because the only times I leave the house are for grocery shopping 
and doctor's visits. Her Macular telangiectasia (type 2) has reduced her 
vision to about 20/80.(look it up in Wikipedia)
