They lasted four weeks!

- January 9, 2023 I would have preferred an in-person visit. However, Anne had to call me instead because of a mix-up. Your outer office denied me service because I told them I had contact with someone with COVID "today". I have COVID also. But I had already been told that it was OK for me to come in. The trick seemed to be that I had contact with someone "today", not that I had COVID. But that that was nothing new. Everyone in the house had COVID. I have contact with someone everyday. But, I had to go home.
