A doodle a day, keeps the doctor away…

Doodling my way through quarantine!

About a year ago my entry into an assisted living facility coupled with the rising Covid 19 pandemic told me that long days of isolation were ahead for me. And for a lot of friends and family too. Somehow the idea of a '"Daily Doodle" popped into my head as a way of dispelling the monotony of isolation and unvarying routine and might give others , the Doodles", a little something to look forward to as well. It's not a big thing but it's something. Feedback suggests this is so., and feedback is what keeps me going. The challenge is of course thinking up the doodles...well...so far so good. Ideas just kind of pop up and expand as I do them. I'm lucky. I Love to draw. Drawing is not a team sport. I've always had a bit of the loner streak in me and can be content in my own company hours, even days, on end. I am really glad that the list of people who get a little enjoyment out of these things seems to be getting larger and larger.

Supporting Covid Research

The world has never faced a crisis like COVID-19. The pandemic is impacting communities everywhere. It’s never been more urgent to support the global response, led by the World Health Organization (WHO). Donations support WHO’s work, including with partners, to track and understand the spread of the virus; to ensure patients get the care they need and frontline workers get essential supplies and information; and to accelerate research and development of a vaccine and treatments for all who need them.

Some donations also support additional Fund partners UNICEF, the World Food Programme, the UN’s refugee agency (UNHCR), the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM), and the vaccine development alliance CEPI.
