a journey.............

  April 18, 2021   A year has gone by in this pandemic.   Mostly I stayed isolated which has been extremely hard on me.   My mental health sure has taken a hit.    I hate living this way. I wanted to ‘travel’ but to scared of covid to do so.   There has been surges on and off throughout the country.   Right now there is one in Michigan.    Our numbers are as high as a year ago.   People are tired of this whole thing.   I am tired of it all but I still take the precautions that are the only tools we have to try to stay safe.    I do not like to wear a mask…..it is hard for me to breathe with it on.    But the bonus is I can look grumpy and no one knows.
