We're now on the 36th day of Shelter in Place. While I agree 100% with this plan, it sucks beyond belief. Though, to be fair, I don't have to deal with entertaining children and trying to keep my sanity, so there is a silver lining. The demons are getting restless too. I think they're tired of me being at home.
I've been having some knee problems for a couple of weeks and decided to take a chance and go to the doctor on Friday. I avoided WebMD at all cost because if I had looked there I'm sure I would have determined I needed to amputate... :-(
Doctor said it's my old pal Arthur Itis. That I can deal with. He gave me some exercises and stretching to do while I'm sitting at home. It was better yesterday, but today is oddly sorer than before. I can't explain it.
After the doctor visit I figured I was out I might as well do some grocery shopping. Had to get some staples and other items to make lunches/dinners with. I should be good for a week or so.
As we all practice these new rules - social distancing, wiping down shopping carts, being kinder to our neighbors, I can't help but wonder if we'll continue when this passes. I'm sure we won't, but it's a nice thought to think that this will teach us all some decent human kindness. The fear now is how all these folks who are out of work are going to survive - then how is our economy going to survive. So frightening to think.
So, this blog speaks to how "exciting" things are these days. In my more bored times, I'm making lists of the things I want to do when we can. People I want to see and places to go just exist.
