Is It Over Yet?

Thursday Meditation on Procreate

I'm over it. I'm over covid, BLM, WFH, CHAZ, CHOP, social distancing, masks, maskholes, Trump, Biden, Fauci, Brix, CDC, WHO, defund the police and all the other drama consuming 2020. WTF!??!

The Beat Goes On

I've been happily immersed in online education for the past couple of weeks. Procreate tutorials have been a perfect pastime as I recuperate from July 1st bladder surgery. I am so grateful to be feeling the benefits of both successful undertakings.

Summer is in full swing with Covid19 still dominating the country's narrative. It's been a confusing "pandemic" with medical expects floundering on many aspects and protocols of the virus. The political divide deepens, three months to the US general election, as the president wants to move the economy forward and get kids back to school and parents back to work. There's a rather large media push to hype the highly contagious nature of the disease, and seemingly inflated death counts so as to continue the economic and social shutdown indefinitely. For what? It's hard to understand what's motivating the divisive situation and contradicting information. Capitalists vs. Socialists? I don't know. Two camps are becoming more distinct: Pandemic vs. Scamdemic. 

Meanwhile, Bill risked his life and actually took a jet plane to Dallas. It was his first flight in months and he felt totally safe and protected onboard. The Airstream is back in Florida thanks to Bill's marathon drive. We will have to reevaluate storage options for the camper going forward, but for now...

It's Still a Simple Life

Candy making at home

June finds us still immersed in a covid19 dictated kinda lifestyle. The virus seems to be the all encompassing excuse for general mediocrity in all things relating to business as usual. It's important to stick to a positive routine: exercise, diet, recreation and social distancing; otherwise one could easily go NUTS. Cooking, baking, biking, golf and pool time continue to dominate my agenda. With June being such an important family birthday and occasion month, I've taken to a powerful little app called Procreate to make some fun greeting card designs on the iPad.

Fun visit with Jill

We did have visitors to lift our spirits, too. Jill and Doug popped over to Marco in their new RV. Collier-Seminole State Park provided a close respite for their maiden voyage. It was great to hang out, golf and even go to a restaurant. Perhaps we'll see them in PEI someday soon.

Slowly, but surely, we are putting some dates on the distant calendar in hopes of resuming some normalcy soon.

And by the way, Black Lives Matter will continue to be a meaningless movement until we can have a truthful and meaningful discussion on race.
