CoVid-19 Update 2

Today marks six days since leaving my property and eleven days since I visited a store (Sunday morning paper).  That streak ended yesterday.  My withdrawal for running finally got to me and I went out for a "short" 2.75 mile run.  There were very few cars and people out in the afternoon so I felt very safe from any infection.
   
Another thing that I am jonesing for is chocolate.  It's not as bad as missing running, but I don't plan on going out to buy some.  In fact, I am not looking forward to doing grocery shopping.  I am still rationing food and I feel I have about three weeks worth left.  Also I have lost three pounds in the past five days.
   
Been keeping busy with movies and other things including monitoring my plants (below).  I've watched two silent classics since self-isolation began.  Ben-Hur and Greed.  It's interesting that in the former, there is a sub-plot involving people with leprosy who are shunned and quarantined.
