Bombarded

From having not enough to do I’m now bombarded with a slew Of YouTubes that I have to view – Right now! Right now! Right now! A few are funny, some bring tears While others cause disdain or sneers But what I think is it appears That onward folks will plow. They all mean well; I don’t regret The texts or emails that I get. I hope the senders aren’t upset If time does not allow… My answering them right away For I’m not able to obey Each message sent, without delay – I simply don’t know how.

Hilarious ending! I actually had never posted a video on zoom, and now I have my own channel - strangely, weirdly enough!

Well, better to be bombarded with videos than with actual bombs!! It's all relative. :) gw

Normally I get 3 or 4 phone texts and voicemails a day, now it's 10x that. I'm with you, I hope my friends and loved ones have patience with a slow dinosaur like me! Nice capture of the moment, Ilene, as always!
