Long time, no . . . I know.

There’s really not much I can say. I have been completely out of it. I had no energy. No drive. Nothing.

I went to the bloodmobile and they told me my blood pressure was up.

I don’t care.

I went to the doctor and she told me my cholesterol was up.

I don’t care. Continue reading “Back from the Blahs – I guess”

I recently saw a headline that read “the art of being grateful on really hard days” and it stopped me in my tracks. Because days have felt especially hard lately.

And they shouldn’t. I’m still working – thank God! We’re all still healthy and still able to get groceries, as needed. My tendency to purchase items out of habit, whether I need them or not, has come in handy during this pandemic, Continue reading “Feeling Blah in Pandemic Times”

I know two days don’t equal a trend . . . and I probably shouldn’t say anything yet. But M seems to be making some progress when it comes to remembering what to do to put his smoothie together in the morning. Continue reading “What is This? Effort? Progress?”

Ha! Now THAT’S funny!

It’s Monday, once again in quarantine land, and last Friday should have been payday for me. There was some sort of glitch between the bank and my employer, so (for a lot of us) our paychecks didn’t go into our accounts that night. Continue reading “It’s All About the Benjamins”

I just saw a headline that said a Florida judge is asking attorneys to wear shirts and not be in bed during court hearings. I guess that’s where we are, as a country.

Hello! How is your quarantine going? Continue reading “Keep Your Shirt On”

Shelter in place continues . . .

How are things where you are? Our state has had shelter in place for a couple of weeks, and now the CDC is recommending wearing face masks whenever we’re out in public. I can just see me getting my dad and my husband to do that. Yeah, right. Continue reading “Gimme Shelter”

It’s Tuesday already? Where is the time going? I feel like it’s flying by, but at the same time, March was the LONGEST MONTH EVER!! It seemed as though it would never end! Surely April has GOT to be better! Continue reading “March – In Like a Lion, Out Like a Nutter”

How are you? Are you stuck inside? Do you have enough bread? Milk? Toilet paper?

The county I live in has issued a “Shelter in place” order, but since I work for a health care system, I’m still going to work every day. I think M and I being together all day/every day in the same house would get to be a bit much. Continue reading “The Plague Continues”

All good things must come to an end, and so it was with my solo vacation. M and his traveling companions came home a day early (on Thursday) last week and I have to admit – I was ready for him to be back. Continue reading “As the World Turns”

M and I are giving new meaning to the term “social distance” – about 665 miles, give or take.

That’s right – he and his brother are in FL for the week! His brother (and friends) drove down from MD on Friday and then they all got in the car and made the drive to FL on Saturday. I was SO GLAD I couldn’t go with them! Being in the car for that long REALLY would have been the end of me. Continue reading “L-O-N-G Distance”
