#97 - Don't Like Local News

News in the Morning

Sometimes I forget to check the local news. I watch National news and see how all the states are doing and sometimes they mention the Houston area.

Texas is getting some attention, along with Florida, Arizona and Oregon. We have something in common. Rising numbers of cases.

You can try to blame the rising number of cases, on all the extra testing. But rising numbers of hospitalizations, is a different story. We all want that hospital bed if we need it!

A lot of people aren't worrying about these numbers. Texas is a huge state. But, 2,622 cases reported in one day! That's enough to make me stay home.

But I don't stay home. I head off to walk or run. 

I get out and live in the moment. I watch the turtles and red-winged blackbirds and study the Cypress tree knees. I don't think about Covid or elections or anything else. Yay.
