Marissa shared an acrostic poem this morning, which prompted me to share one I started in May or thereabouts, found in my journal… with updates.
April, May… The pandemic started in March, but it became surreal very soon after…
Baking bread, but no sourdough for me!
Connections, virtual – Facebook live, Skype
Disconnections, personal. Distanced from friends and family.
Essential? Yup
Furloughed? Nope
Grocery stores – empty shelves.
Hugless months, but HAMILTON comes to TV!
Isolation; I wish for a houseful to quarantine with.
June, July, August… it keeps on.
Kind acts, “a pandemic of kindness.”
Lunches by Door Dash
Masks – at work 100% starting 4/1/2020; mandated by the Governor statewide!
Netflix – a savior! Streaming services thrive…
Online everything. New computer arrives.
Pandemic – the world shuts down; daily Press conferences.
Quarantine, “Stay at Home,” “Safer at Home” orders
Remote access to work
Snowstorm in April; September, October, November, December… it goes on.
Tiger King. Enough said.
Unbelievable, truly. Traffic is down, no rush hour, people are outside…
Video calls – Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas…
Walks with Murphy, Working from home…
X the days as they go by… counting my blessings
YouTube concerts, Broadway and pop; national and local – entertainers entertaining!
Zoom – parties, games, meetings. Now New Year’s Eve concerts to bid farewell to 2020!
Walkie Talkie Book Club 
This sums it up nicely.. if there is anything nice. But thankful for you and calls, concerns, conversations,
Soon to be “normal”again.
