I remember when the thought came to me. It was mid-April and I was feeling sad. I was sad for the people we lost and who were sick. I was sad for the tremendous financial loss so many people were feeling. There were a lot of reasons to be sad. I needed to turn myself around. I needed to think about what I had to be grateful for. I was grateful …
I have been playing around with this blog idea for a few days now. The picture Fred posted on his blog on Friday made me “seal the deal.” I realized several weeks ago that face masks are going to be a part of our lives for the immediate future. So, I ordered a few “stylish” masks for myself and my children. My husband is a medical professio …
As we continue in our efforts to flatten the curve, one idea has stayed in my mind. Long after we have a vaccine for the Covid-19 and we can return to work in some fashion, several habits we are creating now will remain in place. Most notably, I believe that the rise in the number of meetings we hold via video conference will continue. I believe …
In the age of the Coronavirus, my name has become a hashtag. That is, people have been using the hashtag #Rona to post about the virus on social media. I have seen my hashtag on Instagram and on Facebook. I have been told that I am also on Twitter, Snapchat etc. I am all over social media. Apparently, I am also trending!!! My hashtag seems …
Obviously, we are being bombarded daily with stories concerning the effects of Covid-19. But there is one recent story that made me smile and I couldn’t help but share it here. There are two giant pandas, Ying Ying and Le Le, who live together at Hong Kong’s Ocean Park Zoo. Giant pandas are on the endangered species list as there are current …
As a blogger during these difficult times, I have been trying to keep my blogs upbeat. I felt that we have enough difficult news around us and, perhaps, our blogs could be a small distraction. But I am sad and angry today and I want to share those feelings. Maybe some of you also need to share your grief and anger. Last week, my next door …
As we have all can admit, the amount of information bombarding us daily is more than we have ever had before. Whether you get your news by radio (remember those?), print media, television, online websites or social media, the amount of information out there is, to me, insurmountable. As before, people have taken to sharing information on soc …
Mitch shared a great list of possible activities to engage in during this time of quarantine. I would love to share a few of the specific things that my family and I have done. 1. Rearranging my clothes-Since I will not be wearing my “office and court clothes” for at least, six weeks, I rearranged my closet. My casual clothes are now in the fron …
I believe that we can all admit that we are living in a crazy, and somewhat scary, time. Every few minutes the news inundates us with new closings and cancellations, the Vegas buffets, Disney World, March Madness etc. And, as Mitch eloquently wrote on Saturday, the supermarket shelves are bare. But, during it all, we must make important decision …
Ever since I met my husband’s cousin, Jack, he always had a dog. First there was Bailey. And then recently, a few months after Bailey passed, he adopted Shelby from a local shelter. Last night Jack was talking about the cat his daughter recently adopted, Milo. In talking about Milo, Jack laughed about Milo’s antics and spoke about how cute h …
It's Monday, Monday. Let me know what you think about. . .
