Six Months of Lockdown




Don't tell me to wear a mask, it's so frightful.
I find God's fresh air more than delightful!

So be on your way, and happy vaccine day!
Natural living, great immunity and organic diet are my way.

Now this makes some people hot under the collar.
But since I can't leave my house, why bother?

Yesterday was my birthday, and for the first time since lockdown we went to Ricky and Robyn- it was a wonderful day, we wore our masks and distanced but it was so strange not to hug them coming or going! We will be having the vaccine when it comes out, but there will be so many different ones ans different side effect, still we will take the chance. A frank write my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Happy Birtday, Jennifer Mou. Good you got to be with family. Not hugging is strange, I do understand. I am allowed to be with my family only, no masks. Yes, I am frank. There is only one person who decides your death date, he already knows. We can do all we can to prevent it. But each of us has to follow our own way.viruses mutate. So a vaccine may not work. You cam also get plasma transfusions. AnD no flu has ever left us. Dont people understand that? No. This virus is here to stay, the flu killed plenty last year and nobody was in hiding. People have to work to eat. Deaths from starvation are growing plus suicides. Alcoholism, drugs, staying in......will kill us. "Frank" Pangie xx

This has been incredibly limiting; I am so ready for the pandemic to pan-away. I feel your frustration.

Six months does not fly by when you cannot go to store or get a haircut. You know I live alone, too. So it's a matter of trying to stay sane. Plus, as long as covid is still here can never go out. Add to that 3 comments a poem?I must be a dreadful poet. ))) I know that. Its sad and I should get out. I have no idea why I stay. Pangie xx
