#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 that  weather...

Today, the number of global Covid cases reached 10 million.

U.S. cases have surpassed 2.5 million.

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

Those are my covid related worries. There are other thoughts on 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.
