Wife tested positive for covid-19 yesterday
I`m not even trying to stay away from her, I figure if I have to stay home for a week I might as well get it too and be done with it.

I confess that I'm trying to be very careful about not contracting COVID at this stage due to the fact I have a business trip abroad. If I come up positive it will derail everything.

It's going to be one of those weeks 🙃.
Delivery guy backed into one of the cars
It's only minor scratches so I let him off with a warning
Poor man, looked like he was going to cry. He looked like he was in his 60's and probably doing deliveries as a side job.
The good thing was that he wanted to pay for the damages.

Good news. There's only one day left in the week. It's all uphill from here?

They just asked the F1 drivers what's number one on their wish list from F1 owners. I think like 75% of them without hesitation said - "A V12…" Hamilton was the first to respond with - "V12" lol.

I don't know what you (or some people) do for a living, and how much labour is put in, but $975 of my hard-earned money each month to drive a base-spec X4? I'd quicker trade in my 440i6mt for a CX-5

Today is Friday for me. The sun is out, and should be for the next couple days as well. I have some stuff to take care of, but probably first on the list is getting a new book so I can lounge in El Palacio del Sol in my backyard this "weekend"

Did I mention I stocked up on tequila and mix last night???

I can’t wait until it warms up a bit here so I can sit in the sun and read a book. I will be missing my pool though.

Reading anything good?

Right now I'm reduced to Smithsonian magazines. It's the only print I have that I haven't read 2-3x.

I did finish recently something by JD Robb, somewhat futuristic crime novel. I can't tell if I'm getting older, or just couldn't follow the character development. I knew who the lead detective was, but got so confused on some of the ancillary character interactions that I just read the words and moved on. And I think I picked up somewhere mid-series, so I may not know previous character development/stories.

Maybe the sun was too bright, maybe the hat band was too tight
