Covid Creativity and Junk Revisited

 I was at the doctor's for my "annual" physical.  My last one was in 2020...

She asked me how I was holding up during Covid.  I had to tell her that Covid has been wonderful for me, creatively speaking.  I have been busy finishing sewing projects, starting many new ones, and the ideas keep bubbling over.  So other than not being able to get together as much with family and friends, it's been pretty good.

She then asked if I have any physical concerns.  Other than a small kvetch here or a minor issue there, I can't complain.  Well I did lose about a cm in height.  Oh, and I have lost weight.  How did you do it,, she asked.  I smiled, Covid, I answered.  I go to work most days so am not constantly looking in the fridge or pantry.  I bring my lunch to work so don't go out to eat, am driven to and from work because I don't take public transit and  don't drop into the convenience store for "chazerai" (junk food).

And speaking of junk, I have revisited the drawers where I keep the bits and pieces for the crazy quilting I used to do - old jewellery, unusual beads, etc.  I have been ruthless in deciding what to keep and what to toss, not that I had that much to start with. So maybe I'll get back to the crazy quilting at some point to use up the keep stuff.
