What to Do About Christmas
I am having a tough time deciding what Jeff and I should do for Christmas.
We didn’t gather with family for Thanksgiving, even though I visited them the weekend before that. The cases in Wisconsin spiked after my visit and the governor and healthcare workers begged people not to get together for Thanksgiving. So, we decided not to.
NOOM
I started using the NOOM App yesterday. I haven’t been eating very well since I did the Game On! Diet Challenge and I needed something to kick my butt back into gear.
I had tried NOOM a few years ago and I wasn’t good at tracking my meals, so it wasn’t useful to me at the time.
Light at the End of the Tunnel
COVID Vaccines
It sounds like there is a light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to COVID. There are multiple vaccines that seem promising, which is excellent news!
My brother-in-law, who works in a hospital, will be getting the vaccine next week. People like my husband and I will likely have to wait until spring to get vaccinated. That’s fine, there are obviously people out there that are in more need of it than we are.
Election Day & COVID Thoughts
I am glad I started virtual therapy a few weeks ago with TalkSpace. I knew my anxiety would be leveling up as Election Day got closer.
I want all of this to be over. The election, COVID-19 (which unfortunately won’t go away after the election), racial inequality. All of it.
Even when the election is over, I expect there will some civil unrest, no matter who wins.
When COVID gets under control, I don’t think anyone’s life will return back to whatever “normal” was for them pre-COVID. I know mine won’t.
“Pussy Pants”
In February, we had taken a vacation to Cancun with a big group of some friends from Zumba. This gave Jeff a chance to get to know everyone. And, for everyone else to get to know him, since he hadn’t gone to many gatherings with me before this. He’s also a little shy when he first meets people. He gets over it quick, though!
Self-Distancing
I have been self-distancing for about a month now. Maybe more, maybe less. It’s hard to keep track anymore. I know a lot of people are in the same boat.
The days seem to go by in 5 minutes, yet the weeks go by slowly. It’s weird and confusing.
I am less stressed than I was at the beginning of all of this. We have been able to keep having an income and have been able to continue operating the business. It was just Jeff and I fulfilling online orders for a bit
I plan my life out a day at a time, so my posting schedule can be erratic.
