On Friday our governor issued a “Stay at Home” order
effective Monday March 30th, but as a support person for essential
personnel my life will continue to be about the same as usual. And Dr. M’s life
is pretty much the same too – forage for groceries and take care of his Pop.
But I’ve noticed that I’m extra exhausted because I store all of my stress in
my body and my goodness this Coronavirus situation is stressful. I’m also worried because I’ve never been much of a germophobe
so all of these extra precautions feel unnatural and I’m not sure I even
know what I’m doing. What I’m saying is, if we should happen to meet you might
want to extend the 6-foot rule a little bit further just to be on the safe
side.

I pulled out my Book of Common Prayer to do evening prayer
& found these babies.

Dr. M said that the grocery store might be out of a lot of
things, but it was not out of
asparagus!

No picture! (However, we made up for this fact by taking a
bajillion the rest of the week.)

Socially distant walk.

I gave blood that evening. It still amazes me every time I do it. I hate needles!

I took a walk at work during lunch. It was a gorgeous day!
Dr. M has been feeding me very well!

I had one of my childhood favorites for breakfast: PB&J
& Bologna & Cheese sandwich. True confession: I had the same thing
again for dinner. Ha!
Dr. M’s mother’s azalea is blooming!
The Roy came by for a visit.
Mood.
You may have noticed a lack of crochet this week. I did work
on a couple of things yesterday, but my brain has been so scattered that I can’t
seem to concentrate on much once I get home from work. I’ve tried to read some,
but mainly I’ve been playing games on my iPad. It’s about all the bandwidth I’ve
got right now. How are you coping with these strange times?
Interesting that you are still going in to work. Will that change tomorrow with the new directives? I love how spring has really come to your area. We hope it will be here soon.
ReplyDeleteHow are you coping with these strange times?
ReplyDeleteDouble Stuff Oreo Cookies. I do wish I could drink a little beer though.
Is that chicken or fish with that asparagus and rice? It looks delicious whatever it is. What doesn't look delicious is that sandwich. I'm as much a fan of pb&j as anyone, and fried bologna on white with mayo is a fav, too, but putting them together is -- well, it seems odd. But if it works for you, hooray!
ReplyDeleteThat sandwich...I can't even.
ReplyDeleteAsparagus is bountiful here, too. We just had it on the grill last night.
I haven't been able to read, either, and I'd just gotten back to it! I'm lacking the concentration now, what with all this tension. I'm trying, but I'm not one to force it; reading should be a pleasure and not a chore.
So I walk and meditate and like you, play word games on my tablet or phone. And write in my journal. And hope.
That's pretty much my mood, too. And I can identify with being fed VERY well! It's causing me some stress! LOL
ReplyDeleteHeya, that asparagus looked delicious. I hope you are doing ok, the stress is all very wearying. Hope you all get through it all ok.

Playing a lot of solitaire on the computer. Watching tv. Trying to avoid the news as much as possible while staying informed.
ReplyDeletePB&J with bologna and cheese? I will give that a try. Being a fan of all the ingredients, I don't see how that can go wrong.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Spring at your house. Our blooming flowers are almost gone in favor of blooming trees. Not nearly so pleasant - the car is yellow, actually the car is silver but with the pollen - yellow.
