Happy New Year's

I can't remember when I was so excited to see a year end. There's hope that the new year will be better and there's the feeling of having a fresh start. I'll hold on to the lessons that 2020 has taught me-nothing ever goes as planned. That every day is a gift. Freedom and the way we live our lives are precious. Don't take anything for granted. Going to the store-it's not always a given. Being able to be with family-not a given. Being able to celebrate or mourn-not a given. Having the supplies you need or want-be ready to substitute or do with out.

Learning

Ok so you're never too old to stop learning. Maybe next year, I'll take it up a notch... but this year I've had a CBD oil massage-wonderful experience and a sea salt massage-another treat for sure Speaking of treats, I finally mastered peanut butter patties.

Covid sucks

 I knew eventually Covid-19 would hit my little family. I knew it. After all, there are two nurses and one medical student-it was bound to happen. I tried to prepare myself and I've read everything I can on the subject.

But it's the baby that has it. I know she's healthy. I know she has no under lying issues. I also know that she has a lot of knowledge about Covid-19 and how to handle it. She even has the device to measure her oxygen level-what ever the heck it's called. My brain keeps telling me she'll be alright.

But my heart won't listen. My heart is so very worried, and it's breaking that I can't be with her.
