@sallyg - Librarians are the best! Well read and educated and always helpful. I don't think there are any bad librarians. Lots of not so good library patrons, however!
The famous lions outside the entrance to the NYPL are sadly sitting with bright red signs around their necks that read CLOSED.
It has been an interesting week figuring out how to reorganize our lives from home. Getting food and essential supplies (like toilet paper!) and exercise and staying in touch with other humans are all new challenges. Masks and disposable gloves are the only attire that matter. Deserted city streets. Keeping 6 feet from everyone else. And constant had washing. I expect dermatologists will be overwhelmed with raw skin treatments after this is all over!
But there are still lots of folks caring for their houseplants and that is keeping me busy. I just had a call from Toronto about a White Bird. We chatted some and he said the good thing about the quarantine is that he has been spending more time with his family and really enjoying it.
Pluses and minuses. Will we ever be the same?
