The new infection numbers in Uruguay are better than they were a few weeks ago,  but still awful compared with 2020.  There are still 6 more weeks until my second Pfizer shot, and then the post vaccination wait  of 2-3 weeks &#8230; so I&#8217;m still not nearly ready to resume any in-person social life, inside or out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"6692\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/?attachment_id=6692\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1.jpg?fit=500%2C276&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"500,276\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1.jpg?fit=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1.jpg?fit=500%2C276&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1.jpg?resize=380%2C210&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6692\" width=\"380\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alisonschwabe.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/neon-green-and-orange-landscape-sample-block-2-and-3-blog-1.jpg?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In the next sample I tried a couple of things with my favourite little segmented landscape block.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Though I&#8217;m continuing on with the back and gold hand appliqued piece, each day I&#8217;m also doing a small sample of something, two recent ones being in this post.
