Life During a Pandemic

2/18/2021

.During my lockdown for the virus, I am forced to do only a few things, over and over. The early morning involves lots of coffee and meds so I can get going. A few years go I was ready to go someplace by 9 AM. Now it is more like 11 AM. In addition to the complications around the pandemic, I also have some issues with my daily activities.

Now that I am in self-promoted exile from fun outside activities, I have to watch all those reruns on TV. I understand that where. there used to a show or movie filming, it is probably quarantined as I am.

My hands right now are really looking old with odd knuckles from arthritis, broken nails, and lines and blood vessels prominent. All this writing above is to prepare for what I am going to say now - warning it is not very intelligent - just something I am wondering as I watch all those commercials with all those reruns.

Where do they find these hand models for their products. I saw some beautiful hands in a commercial for lotion. I have heard that there hand models, but now I understand. Now I wonder what their faces look like. Are they beautiful, too, or just plain or worse. 

Now at 74, I do not think I could model anything that shows my body or face. Guess I will have to consider a different career. Maybe, I should become a counselor, since I am old and wise now. 

I think this started me thinking because I had neighbors coming and checking on me. AND I live in a senior facility. No one is young here. But these two neighbors, not close friends or anything, came by to see if I was OK. They had not seen me around and were worried. I assured them I was OK and staying inside a bit more because of the COVID.


Well, I will finish this rambling post and sign off for now. I am OK health wise, but just short of sane with all of this isolation. That does not mesh with my personality.

Stay healthy, my friends.
