Update

The pandemic has messed up my normal life so much - not because I have been sick, but I have not been able to go and do my normal activities. I also am not driving any longer, but that has not hindered me, since I have a dear neighbor who will take me wherever I need to go. But I am "out of sorts" as the saying goes.

I am tired of watching TV, and not being able to mix with my neighbors as much. We also are not having that many activities here at the apartment for several reasons, so I do not see my neighbors as often. We do talk some on the phone, but that is not the best communication here.

I have been in touch with my friends who are living elsewhere to make sure they are well, but their lives are so different, too, that we have very little to talk about once we catch up on personal things.

I have read and watched reruns on TV until I am tired of both. I miss the camaraderie that we once had here, but my neighbors are mainly getting together with family. I do not have any family close so that could be it, too. Maybe now that things are getting a bit closer to normal, we can start getting together again.

And all of this angst could just be me...As I said, I got rid of my car so I cannot just take a drive to the beach to refresh myself or just get out to see what is going on here. I guess this is what getting old is about. But I am not ready for this. I will have to find something to do about it.

Hope you all are healthy and coping, well with the circumstances. As the old saying goes, "this to shall pass." I just want it to pass now.
