[Csbstaff] Refrigerator Duty Reminder and Other Stuff

[Davis, Karen D]

Can you believe that it's been a year since I started these emails? Neither can I! Anyway, I'm writing today to celebrate the 1 Year Anniversary (a day short) and announce the retirement of my musical reminders. It's a sad day indeed.

I tried to use the emails to share announcements with a little humor and a bit of my psyche. It was a bright spot of my isolation. Hopefully, I brightened your day a little too.

Since I don't have any announcements for you, I'll just end as I began ... with my first refrigerator reminder (sent 3/20/20):

Hello? Hello? Hello? Is anybody out there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home?

Well, yes. We're all at home. And no, I'm not seriously reminding you of refrigerator duty. I'm just trying to give you a bit of routine during these strange times. HOWEVER, if anyone happens to be in the office over the next week or so, please check the refrigerator. I'm sure in our haste to transition to working from home, we forgot something that has a less than flavorful aroma by now. If you're there, just throw it away.

I hope you're all doing well and washing your hands. Often. And keeping your distance. That's important too. Stay strong, my friends!

I have become comfortably numb.

Have a great weekend! (Yes, it really is almost the weekend. Hopefully, you didn't wake up this morning as I did unsure if it was Saturday or Wednesday. Thanks to Mr. Gilmour and Mr. Waters for use of the lyrics. If you don't know who they are, you've got some time now to discover them. Although I can't say that I'm a huge fan, I know who they are!)
