My insurance company sent an email that they will be applying a 20% credit to auto insurance policy premiums for two months. More people at home leads to fewer drivers on the road, so they're seeing fewer accidents and claims.

Our insurance company said they're dropping rates for the next six months. Our yearly payment is due in May, so go us! 🙂 I think they'll refund or extend those who already paid, though… 😉

I received an email from our lizard insurance company that they're going to credit all policies 15% in Sept.

Don't need to ask if they want the flagstick pulled or left in.

I've realized I'm a bit better of a cook of fundamentals than I used to think I was.  My breakfasts are getting better, that's for sure.  

Something that was fundamentally wrong with my golf swing setup is in the process of getting fixed and is something I can reinforce regularly during this situation.

And something I've been meaning to start writing for about a year is getting written.

Down payment? Uh oh.

But I’ve loved having each of our dogs, so I hope you’ll keep it in your “positive from covid” category.

We've always had animals in the 40 years of marriage.  Her "baby" died about 3 years ago and I told her if she wanted to travel, no animals.  Well....

    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
