  Losing my single cell.
Fast. It is now 9:26 PM, so I have thirty minutes to get this in the mail.

I got your letters today. Lots to digest. Compliments are always welcome.

I am enclosing a "post ready" page for the blog and will write some more after lockdown that will go out in my Tuesday letter. I will explain why I have so little time then, since it is tough to condense.

I also have to read all of the comments you included, and then reread your letters.

Oops, good thing I took care of some personal business, because I am losing my single cell as I write this. Bummer. No more dumping when needed. I hope my body will adjust comfortably and quickly. I still have to do the dishes from dinner.

Well, let me drop this in the mail now, and get on with the business of making this a two-man room again!
