People keep bringing it into New Zealand
That's the same way we got in the United States. 
Rusty, that was one of my dad's favorite songs. I loaded it up to listen to it while waiting at my doctor's office for my appointment. They play some kind of elevator music that I don't like so I get out my phone and listen to my own music. Paul Robeson did a version of Lazy Bones, but I like the Leon Redbone version better. We also liked stuff by Mungo Jerry. In the Summertime is a good one.
Got up early for the dental appointment and took my friend. They took lots of x-rays and said I need some sort of bonding done on a lot of my teeth and some fillings. Need to fix the chip on one of my molars and do something to reduce the gap between two molars where food constantly gets stuck. They have to wait for approval from my doctor since I have to take antibiotics first due to prolapsed valves. They were asking me about my cardiologist & I had to explain that he died & I haven't found a good one since.
Things did not go well for my friend. Numbing wouldn't work. They started trying to pull a tooth & he felt it and made a noise. They stopped and waited but his gums would not go numb. He was given a referral to an oral surgeon- which will be more expensive. His sinus cavity, nose, lips, and tongue all went numb, but his gums didn't. He had a hard time eating but he managed to eat two plates of food.
Ran in to another mutual friend at Tractor Supply. I had to get cow feed. He teased unlucky friend about how he was like the broom for sale- "all purpose and gets pushed around". We are going to help the mutual friend with fixing up the house he just bought. I've offered to haul stuff in the truck, paint, and check out the plumbing to make sure it's right. My guess is that it probably isn't.
Friend's mom's boyfriend survived covid. But not sure if his ex's father will survive since he has Lupus.
It's already getting cold today & it's supposed to get down to 15 next Friday (which is nearly unheard of around here). Might even snow.

Stopped at a flea market and bought an old bookcase for $25.
Kids know how to make you feel good. My 15 year old grandson was helping me load some of the stuff I had made in my shop. We found a big castle I made about 20 years ago, it has turrets, an arched double door and a drawbridge. He asked if he could have it. I said aren't you a little old to play with that. He said, I don't want it to play with, I want it because you made it.
So people staying for a month or three at McMurdo station and obviously can't get covid still can't visit New Zealand? Now I think that's going to wee bit overboard.
Quarantine the entire Earth nobody can leave home for one month even to buy food or to see a doctor. I'm guessing that would bring it under control.
... but it ain't going to happen.
Nobody's mentioned the suicide rate increase in the past year. I'll have to check that out.
The only impact this has had on my life in the past year is I wear a mask when I go into a store.
Today is the second job in the last year where I've been asked to wear a mask. Working with a mask on really sucks. That's people in the home are rarely within 50 ft of me and both of them wear masks in the house and when outdoors.
So far covered has been very very good to me. My work has been relatively steady for most of the year and the jobs are larger than I'd like.
I have two homes coming up in the next month and I still haven't gotten to a half dozen repairs from back in November. Even though my hours are short the workload still beats my body up a little bit, but it's better having a week or two with no work.

it's funny that sometimes you can buy something already built and it would cost you four times as much to buy the parts cut them, assemble it and stain it.
Mungo Jerry.......
Now that's a name that I haven't heard for a long time. That guy must have carbide tipped razors.

They are not letting those people from Antarctica in who dont have the virus but let in sports teams from overseas who bring the virus with them. Makes no sense

That's how government works. Typically they make no sense.
Ya suppose the state/country makes more money allowing large athletic competitions than from a handful of researchers visiting from the South Pole wanting to take in a few sites and stay at a hotel for a couple of nights?
If you follow the money you'll find out the reasons. It's the money.
Hey Zan, I bet he like this one too.
I can't believe how many videos this family puts out is like one a day. If you watch a lot of these videos the boy that plays the bass and other instruments is fantastic. So is the one that plays the drums but drummers don't seem to get the correct amount of attention. Everyone seems to be spot on when they do these videos. . As fast as they pump these videos out I'm amazed at the quality of the music. Dad is fantastic but the two boys are amazing for their age. They make it seem effortless.

That's a good song. I wonder what's up with the toy on the front of the drum. LOL.
I wonder if the girl will learn an instrument when she gets older.
Went to see my friend today bc the Rev-A-Shelf tip-out shelf thing came in for him. We installed it but it was a pain because he has trouble seeing & another friend tried to help but he's not very bright & he ended up stripping the screws.
Things were tense while we waited for his ex to leave for work. She refuses to accept that they aren't a couple anymore. When she's out she constantly calls & wants to know where he is, who he's with, and what he is doing. I told him the simple answer is "None of your business". She also stopped taking her medicine which means she's a danger to others. He hadn't been paying attention to whether or not she was taking them & he didn't care. She's stopped smoking, but I think it's only because my friend refuses to pay for the cigarettes & the friend who stripped the screws has been hiding her lighters. She told me she stopped taking them despite the doctors telling her she needed to take them or she can't be around her baby. But she doesn't give a damn about the baby. She only uses him to get attention on the internet by posting pics and claiming he's her world. I have to constantly stop myself bc I want to reply to her posts & point out she's a horrible mother who won't even hold her baby for 5 minutes. I have never seen her hold him for a full 5 minutes ever and she constantly complains if he wants to be held. No wonder the baby eats so much. He's substituting food for attention/affection. Ever since she came back, the house has been a mess. She doesn't clean up after herself, she leaves half-consumed bottles of water and drinks all over the place, she stopped taking her allergy meds so she spits up mucus and spits it right onto the floor/carpet. The girl who had been cleaning barely comes out of her room because she wants to avoid her (she also hasn't been feeling well since she's pregnant).
Once she left we were able to relax more & another friend (the one who just bought a house that we met at Tractor Supply) came over. We had pizza (which I regret bc it made me sick) and went to Home Depot to get supplies. My unlucky friend needed a breaker, some outlets, outlet boxes, and some conduit to run new wires so he can have a heater. I saw a very cool mini palm nail gun but didn't buy it. I will check reviews on it. It's Porter Cable and fits in my hand. Would be good for tight spaces & it can hook to my compressor.
I'm trying to get to sleep but since I'm having indigestion it isn't working out so well. Got my cat, Boo, here wanting to cuddle. He has a great purr & that usually helps.

The little girl has had some parts with a tambourine, maracas and the cowbell. Has goofy as she is her timing, musically, is spot on. I'm sure she's learning instruments.
Comments are turned off on their videos but it would be interesting to know if that turtle has any significance other than being funny.

A small local market put up one of those football charts at $5 per square. I usually pick one spot each year and usually get numbers that have never been picked in any of the super bowls.
I don't know why but I had a $20 bill burning a hole in my pocket so I picked four squares all in the same row.
My number for Tampa is 7
My numbers for Kansas are 0, 1, 7 and 9. I actually have a chance this year.
It pays $100 for each quarter and $200 for the final score.

I got $100 worth of squares, my usual, from 10$ squares, 5$ to 2$ squares. Some of the numbers are good but not many. But all it takes is a touch back and everything changes.

My daughter brought me an antique radio/record player, but someone stole all my old 45s while we were moving.What's a record?
[QUO
Got boxes and boxes of records under the house somewhere, We used to run a mobile disco but most of the records are one hit numbers on the charts never to be heard of again
Apparently records are making a comeback here and worth money

Well I had the score for 3 quarters. 2 in a $2 board and 1 in a $5 board so I'm not crying. $225 so I made $125 profit.
