I got The Lurgy over the weekend, alas. I took a 2 hour nap Saturday, woke up and called off for D&D, and then flopped around until going to bed early. And was betterish yesterday, but still took another 2 hour nap. But I'm feeling really good today, so I'm hoping to get in some crafting time.
Now that I understand how to make half square triangles, I'm dashing ahead into planning All The Quilts. *wry grin* I won't make 'em all, but it's nice to know I can do stripes and waves and pinwheels all from some very simple pieces. But! That is not going to get this quilt finished, and I wants it, precious. So, blocks to sew and pieces to cut. Then we're on to The Ironing and The Trimming. (not stoked to see how inaccurately I have been cutting/sewing)
In this time of Social Distancing, it's been interesting to see what online services are able to withstand the heavy traffic. Roll20 was stable for my Sunday early afternoon game, but was apparently down/slow most of Saturday and again Sunday evening. (small benefits of playing 12-3 Eastern US time) Discord has been solid for me, which means I've been able to stay in touch with pocket friends as normal, and we were able to use it for voice chat during our game. I have never been one for online multiplayer games, so I cannot speak to those. Shared console co-op, on the other hand, is working just fine and the household put in some time together over the weekend.
