COVID UPDATE and OPENING UP SOUTHERN COMFORT:

Today we received the news that at Southern Comfort we can now use our Hall again for get togethers, playing cards, etc. Those people that have had their Covid immunizations don't have to wear masks. Those people that haven't are supposed to be masked up but since we don't really know who has who has not, it is a good thing that the shots will keep the rest of us from getting sick. 

The ladies played Bingo in the Hall using Mexican Bingo cards. So there was a picture of the object and the Mexican name of the object on the square. The first game was crazy for me trying to figure out if I had the item but it got better as we went on. I won two small pots and then I won the whopper at the end where I ended up with a little over $8! We had a good time and it was good to see and talk to people again. 

PRESENT NEWS ON COVID

Covid has been really hard on those of us that tried to be careful. But we watched the news and it really was pretty bad here in the Valley. 

In Texas until today there were 2.98 million cases of Covid and 52,666 deaths.  In the United States, we have had 33.5 million cases of Covid and 601,000 deaths. So, Texas had more than its fair share of deaths. Texas had the highest number of deaths in the country.

Now the news is that there are new strains of Covid in other countries and a few cases across the USA. The new strains make it easier to get Covid and it is starting to attack children. We are praying that we can keep getting people vaccinated and stop the spread of this disease.
