Day 45: Yep, This Still Sucks
It's a downer of a day. Random bullets to follow.
Filed for unemployment today. That was weird.
I have lower tolerance for discomfort these days.
I know 4 people in my life circle that have died from CoVid-19.
I know more than that that have it or "had it" and are still living.
We are still at a Stay-At-Home order in the state until May 8 - or is it the 15th? They announced in our county that they were easing restrictions and now allowing groups of up to 10 people to gather. My initial reaction was fear. Then I thought and remembered that this is an awful time to die or have a loved one die (I guess there is no "good time" to die) because you can't have a memorial gathering right now. That is something that affects me the most. Everytime I'm reminded of that fact, tears start to well up and my heart tightens.
Anyway, today does not feel productive at all, even though I accomplished almost everything on my official to-do list, plus I cleaned a bathroom, managed to get the kids fed lunch (B took care of breakfast - mid week bacon, yay :) and I'm about to start on breaded porkchops and garlic greens for dinner.
We have to be kinder to ourselves.
