When I realized I may have given my friend Covid for Christmas, the first line of this song kept dancing through my head .This is written with an attempt at lightening the situation.  I am grateful that currently Peter and I are basically experiencing mild symptoms and just a lot of inconvenience.  None the less it does not negate the seriousness of this horrible Virus.  I know people who have lost loved ones or been hospitalized.  I currently sit here praying that my mom who we also inadvertently exposed does not come down with it. We so appreciate the kind acts bestowed on us, the well wishes and prayers on our behalf.
