It’s been a hot minute or rather months since I’ve posted anything. First, it was a work load keeping me chained to left brain activity. Then it was my bed as I quite ill; this knocked me out for about three weeks straight. Then I was in recovery mode and charged into March with big ambitions and … well, you know the rest. You and I are living the rest right now.

Get on with it

How are you coping with the current health crisis? Are you maintaining your sanity?

I’m one of those immuno-compromised people the media talk about, and have been for years due to one of my medications. You wouldn’t know it though if we met on the street. I look “normal” and am not in the high-risk groups.

I’ve always taken precautions about where I go, maintaining social distancing, staying in, etc. because I know there is added risk. As such, I’m lucky as there’s been little to no change to my regular routine. No hard adjustments needing to be made.

I know I’m privileged as I have a safe place to stay and am financially stable (for now). With this position I’ve been supporting as many individuals and organization as possible, through financial donations, mental health checks, and such. It’s not much, but not much x us adds up to a whole lot.

These are the times we just need to get on with it, stop the politicking and finger-pointing, and do what is best for ourselves and for everyone else to survive. We will have ample opportunities to thrive in the future. Take care of your and our now to ensure those opportunities arrive sooner rather than much much later.

Stay safe. Stay healthy. Stay sane. I’m rooting for you.
