I honestly had no idea what day it was today.

Had a minor panic attack thinking I had to work tomorrow (I don’t), and that we were already on Wednesday and I’d done nothing. NOTHING.

I have finals in less than two weeks.

My adult child is living under our roof again (temporarily).

I haven’t been to Disney since February (and I’m officially going to miss my first ever Flower and Garden Festival that I’ve been so excited to see)

I work in health care…and my floor is the Covid floor.

Hubby’s job has been declared an “essential business”, but if they don’t make sales, then they may not stay open.

The girls are both succeeding, and failing, at the homeschool thing…it’s a total yo-yo day to day.

I have 2 kids in the “danger zone” due to their Cystic Fibrosis (atypical though their cases may be) – and I work on THE floor.

I can’t do normal grocery shopping because everyone else is panic shopping.

But it’s okay. We’re all okay. 

Right now we are making it by just fine.

We’re all healthy.

My family back in Indiana is still healthy. My family in Buffalo is still healthy.

My eldest is reading a book (WHAT?).

Birthday gifts for our apocalypse birthday girls have been purchased.

I’m baking bread (this is a pre-apocalypse thing I haven’t done since Indiana), and desserts, and making soups.

I’m crafting. I’m writing.

We have food. We have water. We are safe.

The weather is beautiful.

We are okay.

We are in a weird wonderland where we are all mad here.

But we are okay.

The world is changing, I hope for the better. I hope when this is all done we see what can and should be done.

Right now we’re still working through the trauma, and we have been traumatized, all of us…but I hope we do better after this.

I hope we see the companies that did right by their people, and those that did wrong. That we see what we could be, trauma aside, what a world we can live in.

Until then, I hope we are all okay.

A little mad in wonderland….

But Okay.

How are you holding up out there?  How are you coping? Have you tried something new? Or are you just trying to hold it together? Either way it’s fine, you take care of you. Please.
