I went to a restaurant today.

Wonderful friend Deborah called me up to ask if I could come out, where to go, and I had a friend playing at a place I knew - she picked me up, we went.

My friend was playing, and, although all seats were supposed to be reserved (social distancing), we managed to snag a table.

Once you got to the table, you could unmask. 

I realize now that I let down my guard - this is as unsafe a situation as I've been in since the pandemic started.

i hope my luck holds.

I'm grateful for my friends and hopeful for the future (still). Also, today I voted.

Diet Comment

No change is better than I expected after all the Wholesome Medley - a high-calorie mix of nuts, dried fruit and dark chocolate - I ate non-stop beginning in the afternoon. Although I slept better, which may have everything to do with not gaining weight, the sleep bar is pretty low, and better is still a distance from good quality and quantity of sleep.
