I feel we all need to learn more how to be sensitive without going so far we are being silly.<br /><br />For anyone I see wearing nail polish, I look to see what earrings they're wearing. A quirk of old age? I immediately evaluate whether the colors are good for them. It has spilled over to myself looking with a judging eye at my summer toe polish color.

I see the same people every day, my coffee shop friends masked and distanced, as we sit in our lawn chairs on the concrete median on the street outside.

It's DH, myself, and grandson. We don't do take-out, don't visit or have visitors, kids came by for our birthdays and brought us a cake but stayed outside while we talked on doorstep (6 feet apart and masked). We Skyped with them yesterday and wondered if we will have to do Thanksgiving by Skype or Zoom. How long can this go on?

With my recovery, trips to medical facilities have been unfun escapes. My poor Tom is feeling listless and needs something more than taking care of me and avoiding jobs outside. As I can handle it, we will venture out a bit farther, but still safely. I'm hoping take out pizza today will help.Linda Reederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07665601809156707572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039370.post-36582179122788767332020-08-07T14:55:17.534-04:002020-08-07T14:55:17.534-04:00I love the image of the pandemic box.
