Exactly Nothing

And I had a poo of a day.  Nothing at all.  Some chores, some TV, some reading ... big day of the blahs.

I'm used to having hubby gone during the week (20 years of it), but whenever he's gone on the weekend, it feels strange.  Tomorrow will be back to normal -- my mood back to normal funk hah.

I have a couple things on the calendar today though.  Huge stack of paperwork (no fun) and a visit to the kids for lunch with all FOUR dogs (fun!).  

I think part of my problem is I didn't leave the house at all since a week ago Friday.  Hibernation starts as comfort and quickly becomes a funk for me.  Even if it wasn't intentional.  Tomorrow I'm going grocery shopping and that will be a good thrill LOL.

That brings me to the part where EVERYONE is quickly moving back to normal socially.  Restaurants, BBQs, vacations, shopping, hair, nails.  I've opened up a little, but still barely doing anything.  Next week is everyday contractors in my house.  Exposure with absolutely the opposite of fun.

The US COVID numbers are not good.  A hot spot in GA right now is in the county where our rescue has the far, far away vet -- far, yet too close for comfort.  All Alabama boarder counties are hot spots too.  Watching people having fun and I'm like a shut-in is amplifying the feelings.  Even hubby is golfing all weekend.

Is this QuaranTINA showing up?  I don't think it's any safer right now than it was in March -- maybe even becoming less safe as people think it's over.  Protest gatherings -- so important, but scary in the wake of COVID spread.  Regular lists of restaurants with temporary closings due to a positive COVID test of an employee.  No mask requirements for food prep anymore (need our governor GONE).  What does that mean for take-out safety?

I MUST figure a way out of this funk.  As I said before, ROUTINE brings me good things and I need to find a routine that can stay for long enough to get myself back together.  I think that will help.  Looks like I'm heading for some idea brainstorming this week AGAIN.  Getting Monti used to being left for a couple of hours is start to fixing ME.  Then I can make some plans -- hikes, walks, grocery store runs, etc.

Hope your Sunday is a funday.  I NEED FUN too (!!)  Time to get thinking ...
