(Mama’s not here, by the way, just wanted to remind you that she exists, haha!)

And mama wanted me to say merci to all of you who so kindly sent good health wishes and sweet notes to cheer mama and papa.

Let’s cut to the chase, mama says. YOU DO NOT WANT COVID.

Now it’s true that mama had a mild (HAH!) case as the little orange line on the tester was very faint for 15 minutes 11 days ago, but mama had the kind that makes you…uh…lose everything…but no cough, no fever, no headache, just an emergency amulance to get mama hydrated overnight in a Roman hospital!

That’s another story. They were great however and all went well.

Did you grow up with a mama who taught you not to talk about your aches and pains? Well, mama did. So this is all she’s going to say, and it’s because she wants you NOT to get this baddy especially since it is on the rise in the US. But all of this is oh, so boring.

Let’s talk about pumpkins and witches and little baby Tootsie Rolls, which seemed to be the door to door treats when mama was little.

That and candy corn! Boy, mama are you dating yourself!

This guy knows how to greet autumn!
