(1,195 posts)This is what happens when leadership fails. It didn't have to be this way, but this is our unfortunate reality.
We play with the cards we are dealt.
I'm pretty sure I contracted Covid in late February from a choir member who had just returned from Paris. The day after rehearsal found him in the local walk-in clinic with a 104 temp. My greatest concern was giving this to my daughter who is a cancer survivor with weak lungs. So, I self quarantined and self medicated with oranges, lemons and honey.
My oldest daughter is on the front lines as head nurse for a Connecticut Hospital. She says: "It is brutal on the front lines of this pandemic. None of us in healthcare, have ever seen anything like this. And we will not see an end in sight for awhile."
One of my granddaughters is going to give birth to my first great grandchild any day. My third daughter is a bartender trying to keep the restaurant going taking curbside orders. The situation is frustrating and made more so by Trump and his minions with their heads up their asses.
Everyone's lives have been turned upside down. No, we will never see normal yesterday again. It is what it is.
Me? I get out of breath just taking out the garbage, but I am determined that I will hang around until November when I will vote -- if it is the last thing I do.
