Social Distancing Week 20…Literally Nobody Is Functioning Normally
Friday, July 31, 2020…10:16am The end of week 20. My husband said to me yesterday, “I feel like I am living the in the plot of a totally unbelievable movie.” I think that sums it up for me this week. That and this… We’re heading to the beach to find a piece of unoccupied sand…

Social Distancing Week 19…Running on Empty
This week broke me in about a million tiny ways. But in the grand scheme of things, they are all tiny.

Social Distancing Week 18…Choosing Okay
Friday, June 17, 2020…10:03am The end of week 18. If COVID-19 were a person, he/she/they would now be considered a legal adult. Ironic if you consider the fact that so much of the trouble and angst around life/economy/schools/churches reopening feels a whole heck of lot like there is not an adult in the room. Or…

Social Distancing Week 17…Seriously,WTF?!
I’ve lost count of the number of times per day that I either think or exclaim out loud..”WTF”

Social Distancing Week 14…Wear The Damn Mask!
For the record….I am totally pro mask wearing. Also for the record….if you are still refusing to wear a mask (unless you have an actual health reason not to), I am completely judging your decision as selfish and shortsighted.

Social Distancing Week 12…With Privilege Comes Responsibility
Friday, June 5, 2020…7:17am The end of week 12. For those doing the math, that is 3 entire months. For. The. Love. At about week 2.5 I made an intentional decision to step away from the 24 hour news cycle. It was essential to my mental well being. That all changed this week. With the…

Social Distancing Week 11….Gray. Blah. Sigh.
Friday, May 29, 2020…1:21pm The end of week 11. It’s a gray day. May Gray is what it’s called here in Southern California. It fits the general mood in our house this week. Gray. Blah. Sigh. I’m feeling a bit like Eeyore. My husband had outpatient surgery on Tuesday to remove bone spurs in an…
