Lockdown 3 (6/365)

[haggis]

 Six days in and I am struggling to know what to write about. My daily life is fairly repetitive and feels trivial in the midst of the pandemic. I spend all day on social media, listening to people rage and circulate / repudiate various 'hot takes'. I am just heartsick and exhausted by it all.    

I am relatively well-insulated from the effects of the pandemic but I feel helpless. We have been more or less living under  these lockdownrules for months. I can't help my friends who are having a hard time in any of the practical ways that I would like. I also can't donate money to help out people who need it because our money is suddenly much tighter.

Tomorrow, I will have had more sleep and feel more positive.

Taking care of yourself and your family and keeping you all as insulated as possible is the first and most important thing you can do.

Also I promise you that it's a comfort to read about other people's 'trivial' life and routines, perhaps especially when all around is scary and strange.

Thank you.
