Wow! What a busy weekend!! We have only 1 bathroom, so cleaning is not so bad, but nonetheless, it is my most disliked of all the domestic tasks.
How lucky is the mad scientist that he has you baking bread for him.
Who knows how we'll look back on 2020? For you Americans I guess November 3 will be a day which sets the tone for what is to come, but if we don't get a fully functional and useful vaccine, the outlook for 2021 could look pretty grim for everyone. Here in Australia we seem to be heading towards a future of long-term distancing, masking and gathering restrictions. As with the US, the federal government (with eyes on the economy) is pushing for return towards normality, but the states, with health being mainly their responsibility, are taking a more restrictive approach. As everywhere, old people are the ones paying the ultimate price for COVID-19, but face-to-face service industries (cafes, restaurants, tourism, entertainemnt & the arts) are struggling to survive and will be in big trouble if the social restrictions remain and the federal government decides that it can't afford to keep supporting them. My university is shedding staff with a "voluntary separation program" at the moment, but forced redundancies could easily be on the table if not enough people put up their hand to go.
