So...March Happened...

As I write this, I's after 9 p.m. on March 31st, so we're pretty close to April at this point.  
Of course, we're under social separation rules, fear on the news and heroes in hospitals and emergency services. 
But tomorrow is a new day. 
That doesn't mean that suddenly there's going to be a change in distancing rules or other concerns, but it does mean we have a new chance to look at what's around us. 
We've rested and slept, taken a mental and physical break, hopefully and can start with another fresh
perspective with maybe a little more energy. 
  
Right now, we're more connected than we ever have been.  We can call someone from the room next to us or in another hemisphere, and usually our call quality and even video quality is pretty much the same.  We can text, call, skype, message, mail and all sorts of other electric ways to connect. We can even write letters and use stamps to get in touch!  So, while we may have strange times, we still have each other, just from 6 feet away. 

And, we have hope.  We can still plan events, decide what we like or don't like, think forward, do background checks, look on pinterest, spiff up the resume, get jobs around the house done, spring cleaning and projects underway that we've been meaning to get to and never seem to get the chance. Now we have the chance!

Don't lose hope and don't lose interest! Wedding season is still ahead of us and we'll just have to see what April brings!

At your service,

Dealing with Frustration

3/19/2020

Hello Friends!
We're living in some strange times, aren't we?
I've been frustrated off and on for the past few weeks trying to get into my blog.  
Something as simple as  password reset didn't work, trying to contact a person didn't work...
Obviously, I've figured a way around it, and I hope I'll be able to repeat whatever I did, but it's frustrating.  And speaking of frustrating, I'm sure you've tried to buy eggs, toilet paper or milk lately?  
Frustrating. 
The traffic on 35 has subdued a bit since social distancing became a thing but sitting in traffic? Frustrating. 
But let's change our perspective - a paradigm shift, if you will.
How frustrating must it be to be sitting in hospital waiting for treatment if this Corona Virus has affected us?  How frustrating must it be to suddenly have a house full of kids and not be able to go to work in order to support them.  Or how frustrating it must be to have planned a beautiful dinner or a fantastic vacation only to find you're under quarantine and the restaurants aren't open anyway.

But on the other hand...
Many of us are getting to spend more time with our family, which, let's face it, birth family, chosen family or a little of both, is huge.  Getting to be around the people we love is always a good thing.
We're lucky that, politics aside, we live in a country that has great health care.  Dedicated doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, EMT workers - the list goes on- are offering some of the best care in the world.  In unprecedented times, the people we have taking care of us if we get sick are top notch. 
The immediate world around us seems quieter, maybe a little calmer, and if we keep our watching the news to a minimum (enough to get the news, not enough to drive home a deep-seated scare)  can even be a little less frustrating.  

So let's keep perspective.  It's new, unfamiliar times and we may just need a little more patience with people, whether they're family, co-workers, or even the stranger at Walmart that's buying toilet paper in line in front of us. Very slowly, paying in pennies....
