Well, we've moved into the official lockdown. The girls have gone home, just in case. We weren't sure what the new lockdown rules would Be. Here are the new (vague) rules:
• If it is necessary for work, school or child care. Work or volunteering where the nature of the work or volunteering requires the individual to leave their residence, including when the individual’s employer has determined that the nature of the work requires attendance at the workplace.
• Obtaining goods and services, including food, beverages and personal care items that are necessary for health or safety, including health-care services and medications.
• Obtaining goods, services, or performing activities as are necessary for the safe operation, maintenance and sanitation of households, businesses, means of transportation or other places.

Poor JB still has neck pain, but can still get physiotherapy with all the protocols. I'm sure it is his old chair. I knew we couldn't go to the store and look for a new one. He tried my chair, and it worked out for him. JB dug out the paperwork from my 2017 new chair. I'd phoned Blair at 3:30 Friday, and they don't make this kind of chair anymore. They don't even make this kind of fabric, either.
I decided we would exchange my chair for JB's His dates back to 2005 and it's a bit worrisome. I'm sure that's why he has pain.
We switched chairs. Well, my SIL and daughter did that last week. Bless their hearts.
The store phoned Monday, and Tuesday they brought over a couple of chairs for us to try. Happy days! I had to reply to their pre-visit email/questionnaire. First they state that:
- Our staff are sanitizing their hands, will wear gloves, haven't traveled, aren't sick, have contactless payment.
- Then, they asked me: have we traveled, do we know anyone sick, do we have symptoms, etc.?
Bill brought two samples, as I had consulted with Bonnie regarding colours, styles.
Ta da:
The funny thing is, Bill, the guy delivering the chairs, lives nearby!
Then, as we were debating which chair, they brought two for my perusal, the propane dude arrived!
I did it! I found one piece of wood (1 x 10) and ripped it to size. I had a ton of wood under the workbench when we moved in, but put it out for sale years ago with a sign for $50. (The previous home owner was a cabinet maker.) It was wonderful wood, but I knew I'd never use it. I needed the space under the garage workbench. A woman picked it all up (two trips in her truck) and promised to make me a woodpecker feeder. I've not seen it!
