New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio told New Yorkers Saturday that they can snap smartphone photos of social distancing violations and text them to authorities and “enforcement will come” as the coronavirus shutdown remains in place across the Big Apple. “Now it is easier than ever,” he said in a video posted to his …
It’s always so much easier to cover your own incompetence by blaming others for your failure. It’s a lesson Cuomo has learned well. Every New Yorker needs to know that Gov. “all talk no action” Andrew Cuomo has failed to deliver for the people of his state during the crisis created by the coronavirus pandemic. …
I don’t understand the reasoning for not making this available via prescription from qualified medical professionals. Enough is enough. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo needs to IMMEDIATELY lift his pharmacy ban that is forcing New Yorkers stricken by the coronavirus into an already overburdened hospital system to get the potentially life-saving drug hydroxychloroquine. Because of …
I had to do something today I had hoped I would never have to do again-file for unemployment. It took almost two hours on the website, but ultimately I did get through and did what I had to do. The only thing about my previous unemployment experience was that I knew what to expect, and I …
I am combining two days again. I just didn’t get around to posting yesterday. I made some phone calls I had been planning on, which took up part of the day. And I got one phone call I wasn’t expecting quite yet. My boss called to let me know we were officially furloughed and would not …

Today is the Fifth Sunday of Lent I wrote this reflection for our Church website and am sharing it here. Enjoy. Lord, If You Had Been Here We can very much identify with the anguish Martha and Mary are experiencing in today’s Gospel. Martha confronts Jesus in a way with questions we might want to ask of …
Day 7 Today we received the last regular paycheck we are likely to receive for a while. It is going to be a bumpy ride financially from here on out. Rent is due on Wednesday, but I have yet to hear from them on the method of payment. We can probably make most of all …
Almost time for bed. Just a quick note to say we are still here. No fever, no symptoms. So far, no reason to believe we have been exposed—more tomorrow.
