Here I sit on December 15th watching the news surrounded by all our Christmas decor. Like everyone else, this is going to be a very different Christmas. Per our usual Christmas schedule, this was supposed to be a Ohio Christmas with us traveling there to visit with the Zetts family and the Wilder family. Well that's not happening obviously. This year it will all be virtual but that will allow us to also have a visit with the Holland family, albeit on a computer screen. My sister has already planned the iPad placement for the easiest viewing of Hayden opening her gifts. Clearly that is what is most important for this holiday.
Yesterday was a day filled with lots of TV coverage of the first Covid vaccinations and the day long coverage of the Electoral College. While normally it would have been quite boring, this year, given the cheeto's tactics, it became must see TV.
This week is also one of a plethora of doctors visits. Monday was Steve's yearly eye appointment. Today was a dentist appointment for Steve for a tooth extraction. Tomorrow is an appointment for me at the Duke Cancer Center with my oncologist to discuss hormone therapy before beginning radiation (later in 2021) and then tomorrow I have a dentist appointment for a cleaning. Given the state of Covid, it will be a test of nerves. If we can just get to Friday, then all should be good until we coast into 2021.
Clearly I have been absent for awhile, 230 days to be exact. What have I been doing?...TikTok mostly. OBSESSED with TikTok. Other than that its a lot of TV, walking in the neighborhood and alcohol! There has also been a lot of food. The ever expanding waste line is a testament to that. But Steve and I have each other and that is something that I am thankful for each and everyday. There is not one else I would rather be in quarantine with.
Have a safe and great holiday season!
