I am on spring break. I am doing some spring cleaning in my house as well as using my time to make some life style changes.
It is difficult...too difficult...to get the exercise back into my life. It is sad that it is so difficult. I have made too many excuses and let myself lag behind way too much.
My anxiety is ramped up...along with everyone else. My son is ping ponging back and forth between anxiety and depression. He is happy and nervous and upset. He is happy because he is still starting his new job because is it IT for a medical facility. He is starting it a few days later because they had to figure out how to train him with everyone now working from home. AND he will have to work from home also which gives HIM extra problems since they are living with her parents and there are 3 very loud dogs there. He may have to work in the room where they keep their cats just to get some semblance of quiet. He is nervous about a new job. He is upset because of the circumstances around us. Who isn't?
My daughter was able to get into a doctor to get a new inhaler. She has not had problems with asthma in over a year but she needs this...just in case. I pray for her protection working in that pharmacy 5 days a week. I pray for Jordan's safety working for FedEx. I pray for the safety of so many. Who would have suspected?
I am trying my best to stay off of social media. It just makes me more anxious also. I am hoping that the way things are today for us all is as bad as it gets. In reality I should not be seeing so many vehicles coming and going up and down the road outside the front of my house as I do. It is a lot less than normal but it is still too many. Last night it was a ghost town but every 10 minutes or so I still heard a vehicle pass by.
I started taking allergy meds because my allergies seem to be worse than usual for this time of year. I sleep better at night because of them. So I am getting plenty of sleep.
At least the sun is out today and I can have the sunroom open...with a little chill chasing from the ventless gas stove. Lucy is quite happy with that arrangement.

hey Nancy, hope you and all you love fair well through this pandemic. Its such a crazy time for all of us.
I have managed and thankfully no one in my family has been physically compromised by any of it. My siblings and I still gather on Sundays at my parents' to catch up and discuss the events of the landscape around us. Hope all is well with you and yours.
