I have not contracted the virus, but it is definitely making me sick.
I have had a couple of people on my heart the last 24 hours, and there is nobody I can talk to about it. I have been very upset, because both of these folks have confided in me, and being a Stephen Minister, I want to hold their confidence as pure as I can. However it is very troubling, the situation is, and there is really no clear answer.

It has been a typical Mother's Day for me, I spent the day alone, and I did not get one phone call, but I got one text from my friend Tom Bragg, who wished me happy Mother's Day.
Another wonderful thing about Sunday is I get to listen to my wonderful church service on the Facebook live feature. Our church is leaps ahead of other churches in the area on teleconferencing and virtual worshiping. We have been producing podcasts for a couple of years now, and I do not miss a sermon by tuning in every week.
Yeah, usually I am singing in the choir, but as I have said before, I do not think we will go back to singing in my choir like we did, not anytime soon.

| Tom Bragg sent me a text today, wishing me a happy Mother's Day. Sometimes, we just need to hear that from a personal message, and not in a group recognition on Facebook. Thank you, Tom! |
My Pastor has cautioned to me that I should not use the word "never," Because he believes there are brilliant scientist to are going to cure this coronavirus and rid the world of its danger, so I am going to stop using it and say I think it will be a long time before we get things back to our version of normal. I do believe it will be quite some time before anybody feels comfortable again, though.
In this time of confusion and uncertainty, we have to do the activities every day that make us feel normal. It makes me feel normal to cook, so I have been making a lot of French toast, a lot of cheese eggs a la Pearl, and today, I made myself some scallops, which I ordered from Schwan's! I cannot always afford Schwan's, but I'm happy they will deliver lovely scallops to me.
I have watched movies today that I never thought I would watch, including Terms of Endearment, which my mom wanted me to watch back in the 80s. I can totally see why she wanted me to watch that movie, now. It made all the difference to see it today, and remind myself of the situation when Mom had urged me to watch that movie. I am so glad my mother and I reconciled before she died in 1988. I spent that summer laying on the bed with her, talking about various people in the family and of course all the people she did not like on television. Pearl headed list of people she could not stand, no matter what. Usually the reason was that she showed her ass. That was her excuse for disliking a lot of women LOL.
Tomorrow, I will finally catch up on my soap opera, Days of Our Lives, and I will also update myself on Bold and the Beautiful. I have snuck it into my daily watching schedule, this half-hour soap on CBS that has a very sketchy writing staff, and the dialogue is hilarious.
Eventually, tomorrow, Dr. Oz will come on in the late afternoon, and I will listen to what he has to say. I do not know why so many people oppose Dr.Oz, he does not seem to ever present a controversial subject. If he does, he approaches it in a very medical way that is not sensational at all. I am thankful for Dr. Oz, and whenever I dream about him giving me a ride, he always asks me for gas money when I get out of the car LOL.
What is it about me that makes me think that Doctor Oz would ask for money!? I suppose it is my conscience telling me that I cannot get a free ride, that I need to remember to pay for the gas and the maintenance of the vehicle!
Speaking of Maintenance, I think I am going to going to make myself a Coronavirus pandemic snack, or I should just have a candy bar and apply it straight to my hips, as the old joke goes.
Speaking of jokes, I am going to try to sleep tonight. I do hope you sleep tonight, and if you dream about Dr. Oz, let me know if he asks for gas money!
Peace to you,
Kimmy
