Good morning and happy April. Seriously is it a new month.
2020 has been a year man, and we’re just 4 months in. I’m tired. LOL Since the
world is collectively on fire, I decided to do something different for this
IWSG post.
I hope everyone is hunkered down and in good health. I’m not
made to be around anyone 24/7 including he who I married and those I gave birth
to, but alas that is the current situation. Only a mild case of cabin fever
kicking in.
It’s seriously feeling like we’re in a bad outtake of The
Mummy. Time to scream “you must never read from the book” though it appears
someone had. Until Brendan Fraser and Oded Fehr show up to save us, let’s start
a positivity train.
Not writing related, just all the good things that remain
bright spots in these troubling times.
Sure, my family is driving me slightly batty, but there are
here and healthy. My extended family is all in good spirits and we talk more
now than we probably did before.
I have an amazing community of friends. Yeah, they live in
my computer LOL, but I talk to them daily. We chat about all things, not just
writing and we help support and keep each other from falling into the abyss of
negative thoughts.
My pups are getting extra love and only grumble about it
sometimes. They can get quite attitude-y when they want to be. They are loving
so many people home all day since normally it would be me and I can only give
so much attention to the lot of them.
My husband is keeping me supplied with emergency chocolate.
The man knows how to keep me calm-ish. Like I said, I’m not built for 24/7
togetherness. Only 2 meltdowns so far. That is a huge positive, especially
considering we’re doing the homeschool thing.
Speaking of homeschooling, my county has been great so far.
They have been providing free lunch to the students which is so helpful. And
they make it easy to get by having the buses do delivery.
We are in strange times. The best we can do is to be kind to
our fellow human. Wash your hands. And stay home as much as you can.
Let’s keep this train going. In the comments, post one
positive thing happening for you right now.
The awesome co-hosts for the April 1 posting of the IWSG are Diane Burton, JH Moncrieff, Anna @ Emaginette, Karen @ Reprobate Typewriter, Erika Beebe, and Lisa Buie-Collard!
Until next time

Sorry your family is driving you nuts.
ReplyDeleteOne good thing is I was already a homebody and it's just the two of us, so we're handling it just fine. And working on some house projects.
Family can be distracting and crazy at times. Togetherness is wearing on Hubs and me. But if I have to be on a desert island with anyone, he'll do. LOL Stay safe.
