My Rambling Thoughts
Another stay at home Saturday, with a nice long walk.

Got the email from H&R for tax return. Had a problem, but my tax guy fixed that quickly. I waded through the website, answered the questions, paid my bill and finished my part. Then my tax guy sent if off. Easy.

Remember 40% of Navajo on the Rez have no running water, 35% have no electricity. Makes hand washing and and cleaning difficult.

When I'm on a trip and spending the whole day in the sun, I carry some head covers...not hats. Now those are proving good as they make excellent mouth and nose covers. At the time I didn't buy the ones with a face in the design. Should have. Camo works, but that's what most people have.

Those people with home payments, beware. Some lenders are offering 'deferred payments' which sounds very good. Read the fine print...it is 'deferred' for 3 months and then you have to pay a balloon payment of those three months, plus the newly due next month. Others are offering deferred payments where you don't pay for 3 months, then pay as usual with the 3 months simply added to the end date...giving the lender lots more interest.

While the Trump administration has new policies to deal with Covid19, again, be informed. While he keeps allowing the states to buy masks from vendors, rather than a National plan, this is simply Darwin's theory of Survival of the Fittest. Strange policy for a President doesn't believe in evolution. His policy also allowed vendors to sell to countries around the world. Now he is frantically trying to plug that hole.
