Happ...Finally catching up with your posts, Tia.... Happy to hear you are all still well, and that many friends are bringing bits of happiness with everything from flowers to glue sticks.<br /><br />Reading your comment about it not being the toughness of every day but the knowing that tomorrow will be the same - and tomorrow and tomorrow gave me pause. And I realized that is the explanation for why I am feeling a little depressed and a lot unmotivated. Although only in the "old" category as far as risk, even with otherwise moderately good health I wonder if I will ever feel comfortable going out to places like groceries, let alone a festival. I am already mourning the loss of my previous life, assuming that, even if a vaccine is discovered, many of the things that gave me joy will likely not happen again. I am hoping that, somehow, this situation will turn around, and I can slowly and tentatively feel comfortable being around a few people again. <br /><br />Kudos to you for managing additional challenges to this stay-at-home time, and trying to remain cheerful most of the time, too. I guess we need to just take things one day at a time, and continue to hope. And to trust that He has a better time ahead for us.<br /><br />Stay safe and well, you three.<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />Ann in VirginiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
