Sorry to hear of the loss if your friend, @ramonmercado.
Have you tried using one of those button-linkpiece things, mask fit-adapters knitted by well-meaning volunteers? I've NOT, but my SO has masses of them in a bag, therefore they must be of some usefulness (I'll post a pic later, unless you already know what I mean).They do not fit my face. I have to twist the elastic once before putting it on my ear in order to shorten the mask
Happy Birthday!I’ve started to see face masks in the shops and have picked up a few although when I’m out, which is a very rare sight these days, I don’t see many people wearing them. I had a major birthday last week in the lockdown conditions and it wasn’t brilliant I have to admit.
I’ve largely given up on the daily death toll on the news. In fact, I’ve pretty much reached saturation point with the constant updates from the talking heads in front of bookcases. It looks like people have had enough and just want to get out. While the supermarkets have coped brilliantly keeping the shelves filled and the deliveries are getting out, I noticed a huge queue of cars at the local KFC. I’ve never thought of KFC as being that vital a resource but it shows a desperate social leaning towards some sort of normality. And then I wonder what effect all this is having on me. My body’s seizing up through lack of even the most basic exercise. Mentally, I’m not sure where I’m at. I don’t know whether my disengagement is a necessary filtering out of the relentless conflicting information and depressing statistics, or my brain is just turning to mush as part of a bigger health problem.
One thing I am pretty sure of. When this is over, things will be different and the effects will last a long time. Maybe some things will change for the better. MOST people are politely lining up and obeying the rules. Maybe we’ll drop the attitude of mad consumerism and instant gratification and prioritise the more important things in life.
Happy Birthday!

I misread that as a huge queue of cats!
Is that anything like a golf widow?a kebab shop widow
Sorry to hear about your Mum's friend NF X. My big Sister had a bit of a cry of the phone to me yesterday which is healthy as fuck but rare for her .. she didn't want to call me back when I gently suggested it .. so wanted to 'man' up instead which I got so she kept talking instead. Feimann's currently doing a painting of her which I've asked her to leave to her kids eventually so they can continue to kick ass in the family name. Swiftys don't surrender.Losing the woman who ran my mum's local corner shop is disastrous. She looked out for my mum. Different cultures, different colored skin. Lovely woman - it never bothered her or my mum - they'd like a natter. My mum is devastated. Another unknown statistic.
So she's not dying??Sorry to hear about your Mum's friend NF X.

My Sister isn't .. my Mum's not doing well hence my Sister's tears on the phone. Nothing virus related though. Have that rest my typically contrary but hard working brother X .. there's always women's tits as well .. women's tits are brilliant .. close your eyes and think of tits.So she's not dying??
Us lot need a bit off space, days off, holidays. Swifty, SWIFTY'S SISTER! me, etc, have carried on working in very weird times. I think we've done an amazing job. I am so tired though - I could do with just a rest.
Why didn't you ask her to make one of those for you? Are you afraid you'd feel like a boob wearing it?My Mum has been getting busy with making masks for the family. She also made one for herself from a bra. ...
I didn’t get where I am today by asking mum if I could wear her converted bra.Why didn't you ask her to make one of those for you? Are you afraid you'd feel like a boob wearing it?
Oi! She's a long distance away.Why didn't you ask her to make one of those for you? Are you afraid you'd feel like a boob wearing it?
Sorry to hear about your mum, Swifty, big hugs.My Sister isn't .. my Mum's not doing well hence my Sister's tears on the phone. Nothing virus related though.

Stuff like... tassels?Oi! She's a long distance away.
She's put stuff on it to disguise its origin anyway.
Did you just go and pinch it instead like a true rebel?I didn’t get where I am today by asking mum if I could wear her converted bra.
LOL, no - just another layer of 'non-bra' fabric.Stuff like... tassels?
Sorry Oggy, that's a good point .. *tickles the Odmiesters tits*Sorry to hear about your mum, Swifty, big hugs.
Also what about my tits? I had to work hard to grow them, unlike women who just sit around waiting for puberty... actually, I did a fair bit of siting around to grow mine...but the point still stands.
That's because you spend too much time thinking about tits.Sorry to hear about your mum, Swifty, big hugs.
