The world (all of it, everywhere) was about to change. Violently, terrifyingly, and chaotically.
I could not have predicted how terrible our response in America would be. But here we are.
My feelings right now are centered on my family.
Keeping them safe.
Keeping me safe for them.
Missing them because they are not here (we had a visit planned for everyone to come to Grammie's).
This is my blog post four months out from my awkward step back from society I took in late January/early February. Sigh. I truly wish I'd been wrong and crazy. TRULY.
Anyway, here we are.
Yesterday I drove around having a minor nutty because I just couldn't take it anymore. I think I'd have been willing to get out of the car and wander around IF THERE HAD BEEN ANYWHERE TO DO THAT. Parking lots closed, businesses closed, streets full of people walking in circles with their dogs because what the hell else is there to DO??????
So, I'm safe.
My kids are safe.
But, man, am I tired of the same four walls and talking heads on Zoom.
If you want masks, I make masks out of my limited resources. The octopus fabric is all gone. So is the chemistry fabric. But... new fabric can be had. They have interfacing, so they are filtering some stuff. Mostly. they are comfortable and I am pretty good at the pattern matching. Hit me up if you want something made. Mail me fabric if you want something specific made.
