                              Week 5 and Week 6


  • Easter comes and goes. It's not the same.
  • At least this enemy has a name or ... we think it does.
  • The world continues to hold its breath.
  • Tears are close to the surface.  It is the tender moments and acts of kindness that burst through the protective dam.
  • Day confusion is a real thing.
  • PA liquor stores have been declared essential businesses and are reopened upon reconsideration of the governor.
  • Stores begin to limit the number of customers at any one time.
  • Being a bit of a recluse by nature is working for me.
  • ? Will life ever get back to normal?
  • More and more masks are becoming mandatory and people hoard them like disinfectant wipes.
  • Everyone seems to be in need of a haircut. 
  • Nancy Pelosi shows off her subzero freezer stocked with expensive ice cream ($15/pint) while food boxes are being handed out across the county. She also invites the world to come to China Town in San Francisco. Tone deaf takes on new meaning.
  • Covid Checks (Economic Income Payment) are on the way if not already cashed or deposited in fear of potential job loss.
  • Local schools are letting students inside to clean out their lockers.
  • New and complicated procedures are now in place for emergency visits to a Veterinarian. People consult doctors over the phone or online.
  • The PA governor has extended the shelter-at-home mandate.
  • April has seemed like a very long month.
  • Kim Jong-Un survives heart surgery.
  • As a world we are becoming more aware of each other.
  • Wedding plans continue to be reevaluated and postponed.
  • People continue to crave fresh air and sunshine.
  • Children continue to be deprived of an education.
  • Socially distancing hiking is a real thing.
  • Is it Corona Virus or Covid?
My new mantra is ... "I will try again today."
