@jon-nyc
It would be wonderful to have him back, too. I didn't see his name in the user list, so I hope I didn't miss it.Riley, if you're here already, let me know. I'd love to hear from you, too! I want to hear about your career, your home improvements, roommates, etc.

Hi Brenda,
Thanks for asking. All is well here, trying to make the best of the lockdown. We consider ourselves lucky, as nobody in our family has gotten sick at this point. And the weather has been awesome so far, so we spend most of our time in the garden. Despite the circumstances, I also found a new job (after losing my previous one near the end of last year due to the company being in financial troubles). Will be starting in May.
How are you? And how are Jurgi and his friends doing?

Excellent news about the job and family, nunatax!
We're doing alright, working from home is the norm for us anyway, just more of it now.
Weather is still rather cold much of the time, but we've had several afternoons warm enough to be outside. It's still too cold for the outdoor frogs to come out of hibernation. I'm very hopeful Jurgi and his pals made it through their first winter here.
In the meantime, I raised some treefrogs from tadpoles. Not all survived, which can happen with taddies, and the ones that did now have very tall froggo houses in my dining room. They will transition to the porch by early June. It takes that long for the weather to get warm enough.
Their current froggo house has real plants, a tree trunk, small pond, and lots of bugs to eat. They are native our area, so they can gradually transition to the outdoors this summer.
I'm so surprised you remember Jurgi.

Greetings Brenda! I stop in everyday, but rarely post. How do you guys find the time?!
We've been traveling quite a bit lately since
my wifewe discovered Costco Travel. Last fall we went to London, Edinburgh and Dublin.In February we went to Italy (yeah, I know). Rome, Florence and Venice. Great trip, great people, great food and great wine. Seeing Michelangelo’s David was worth the whole trip.
Not working at all since the shutdown. For some odd reason the State of Indiana doesn’t consider piano technicians to be essential workers.
Looking forward to your posts of the frog follies when it warms up!

@QuantumIvory
Holy cow! You remember the frogs, too?!Time? Well, I've been under the weather much of the time since late February, so that has kept my butt at home quite a bit. I also work from home. Gives me more time to pester folks here.
It's also still late winter here in Minnesnowta. We're getting another 5 or 6 inches of snow. Oh yeah, snow on Easter is a thing here. Once we get a real spring, I hope to be out digging in the yard.
I hope you'll miss me.
Don't worry. There will be froggo pics.
