Quarantine Life: Settling in

The plumbers came back one last time on the 30th, and now we have a finished bathroom. Yay!

R & I settle in to our work routine, me in the living room, him in the bedroom. I deliver the training program I've been working on for six months.

We have Zoom dinner parties with friends. We have Zoom work events. We get Shipt deliveries from Target and Publix. My meal service is still running. We get takeout delivered on the weekends. I order us masks from three different sources. None of them have arrived.

I feel like a slug, and so I go for a walk around our parking deck. There's a couple and their toddler walking around and so I don't feel comfortable.

Our neighbors start playing music in the evenings, and I clean off our balcony so we can join them. I love it. R doesn't, but he humors me.

I worry. About the news, about my family, about what the government isn't doing, about anti-elitism putting the idiots in charge, about the economy tanking, about losing my job or R's or both, about getting enough exercise, about R's health, about everything, about dying.
