#106 - Don't Like Gloomy Weather

Blah Days

For the last 5 days, the weather has matched my mood. We've had long rains and muggy, breeze-less mornings. These are the downer news updates that match the  weather...

​Today...

   The number of global Covid cases reached 10 million.

   Many people are still ranting over the freedom to NOT wear a mask. 

​  The hospitals in our area are gearing up for ICU bed shortages, just like        

    NYC.

   Texas, Florida and Arizona, are emerging as the county's latest epicenters.  

    U.S. cases have surpassed 2.5 million.
​
   Those are my covid related worries. There are other thoughts on my mind... 

Rainbow?

I've been keeping an eye out for rainbows, but I haven't seen one since this rainbow, a month ago.

I need another bit of rainbow distraction.  

Right now, I'm thinking about our special neighbors, dealing with heartbreaking loss... in a time when hugs and even casseroles are difficult to offer. I'm worrying about a friend, who had her worrisome surgery postponed, due to covid issues. 

I'm sad that both our kids and spouses live a couple thousand miles away. Poor Scott has 5 stitches in his foot right now, from a little mishap. I can't run over with a card and cookies. 

I need to make my daily call to Dad. But I'm tired and I'm running out of clever converstaion starters.

​I'm going to keep an eye out. We're due for another rainbow.
