I'll start with the biggest one:
- As of Mother's Day (last Sunday), I'm back in physical contact with my family. I got to hug the grandkids and my daughter, and Charlotte has spent the night with me twice since then. I've been on lockdown since mid-March, having left the house only four times. Daughter is a COVID-19 convalescent plasma donor, so I figure if something crops up within fourteen days, I have a mainline to the good stuff. I still wear a mask whenever I go outside - even to empty the trash - or if I need to go into a public building, and I practice safe distancing with non-family ALWAYS. But, boy, it was great to cuddle again!
- I have not cleaned out any closets.
- I have not switched my winter clothes to summer clothes.
- I have not organized all those photos that I've always said I'd organize when I have the time. (I've had the time since March.)
- I have not organized my "When I Drop Dead" folder with all my account numbers, passwords, lists of folks to notify, etc. I did, however, organize my office files, so at least info shouldn't be hard to find. Still.
- I have not learned to knit, draw, or sing opera, studied physics, or read War and Peace (I've seen the movie, though. Does that count?)
- I have not finished my novel or Walter Wildgoose's memoir. Just not feeling the writin' thang right now.
- The only personal growth I've experienced is in my waistline, though funnily enough, I haven't gained any weight. Go fig-yah!
- Still can't get into Ozark. Meh.
- As I always suspected, if I don't have a job that requires me to get up in the mornings, travel to an office, and do some kind of productive work, I will just spend my time watching TV, reading, eating, or napping.
