Today is a sad day. I should be walking in the Hot Chocolate 5K that I have been doing since 2013. And instead I am not doing anything I planned to do since this virus took over our lives...Coronavirus has taken: my race, my radio show, my church, everything is closed so all that too!
1. Work is just work. But its shorter this week. All thanks to me asking for time off for my hot chocolate race almost 2 months in advance. So a piece me was glad to be not working yesterday or today. Yeah!! Freedom!! Sure my next check is gonna suck but hey it was worth it even if I didnt get to race for chocolate :( Work we now dont gotta scan receipts or go near customers. So I just shoo them by unless its a big item that I should check. Hey they said I can the boss of the boss said it. I dont like scanning receipts. And while I am NOT afraid of this virus its fine to keep the customers far away from me as they can be. Plus I wear gloves...
2. My radio show is officially gone. I got the news last night when I knew it was half and half. This week has been hard on me. I lost so much in one week. I lost church both Thursdays and Sundays and then I lost this. Sigh. On a side note: My Pastor had a stroke last Saturday and I didnt find out till Sunday when we going in. THIS is a miracle of God. He has a hole in his heart and I guess stress that caused it. BUT HE IS FINE! Sure he has healing to do and therapy speech and otherwise but he is healing. God is good. He is my biggest good of the week. I spent last Sunday at work crying off and on. So I took Monday off and used some PTO for it because I was so upset. Between Sunday and Tuesday I cried A LOT but prayed too not just cried. News on Wednesday was he home. HE IS A MIRACLE! Then my church got canceled and I felt broken all over again. I felt like this whole thing with my pastor was breaking my heart till I got the news of the church. I rely on church for fellowship I rely on church for my hugs. And now those are gone. Virtual hugs and church online like everyone else. This is the new reality we live in: everything is closed we should all be home and if we are not we need to be okay going places. And people still do go places (the beach had people still but not a lot!). But its all things outside like parks and beaches. Fear is not helping anything and for sure fear is what is driving us crazy with this.
3. GYM managed one last trip on Tuesday. It was literally the only thing we did. We came back home after and then of course come Wednesday find out all the GYM's are closed too. Literally have nothing we can do with our free time. I miss the GYM already. I miss everything truly!
4. Saturday (yesterday) I managed a fun little trip around my friends neighborhood. We broke no rules at all because we outside and not at a park or beach. We just around the neighborhood walking her two dogs. We got to talk and fellowship. And hug at the end. I got my only hug for the week. Today we worship online and hear announcements too. I miss my church so much. I miss you all so much.
5. 2019 ending my last of these we have done 10 weeks of doing this. 2019 is a weird one to review because its so close. I spent about half of it not talking to anyone at church and at the end I was friends with a good handful. I was at Walmart the whole year beginning to end. I began to become involved at church beginning with the book club in the summer. Then the fall I began to do the women group. Of course when Rainbow died in October I realized my year was gonna end badly. I turned 40 in December. I had a great birthday we did a lot of stuff. No complaints. I miss Rainbow still so much baby girl.
wow what am I gonna write about next week? I usually write about the gym and school and since we done with these. I guess will have to think something else up. Gulp. Well have a great week. Stay safe and wash your hands. Till next weekend last one of these for the month...
