I had a draft saved from 1/1/2020 that was full of hope for 2020. After a rough and rocky 2019 where my daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes a month before her 8th birthday, I felt like I was tumbling downhill and just couldn't get my footing. I was going to do better in 2020... then Covid-19 happened.
I guess I got my wish, because the world stopped. I've been relegated to my house to work from home and home school my kids. We haven't been getting takeout because we're trying to minimize contact as much as possible to protect our parents, children and ourselves. No take out means cooking at home. No pizza, no Wendy's, no Chinese food. To be honest, I don't really miss it. Some days, I could really go go a grilled chicken salad from the local restaurant or ice cream from DQ, but I was so burned out on fast food.
We're watching movies and reading books and working on Girl Scout badge work until the world becomes"normalish" again. Here's to the hope that we return to a world that is more healed and people who are more thankful for all the good that they have in their lives.
