1 May 2020 22:19Solanum and I were to be in a tent on a hillside near Nashville, TN tonight.
Instead, I spent the day "playing fence" and playing "pandemic."
I have been "furloughed', the new buzz word. The midwest never quite hit its peak, and one will never know if another outcome would of occurred if the Governor didn't act when he did. The last time I worked was back in March. There was a bit of drama regarding the work situation for awhile...I finally had to put my foot down, and dictate some of my own fate in regards to work. I felt very self empowered.
Shared this with Solanum, who in conversation reminded me that everyone is having a difficult time. I am not the only one. Point taken.
Being a single person, in a lock down situation, confined to his or her house for long period of times, is beyond the worst. At least most have partners, ect. Me. I'm a solo girl. I sit for days in silence, with limited contact. I have barely left the confines of about a 0.25 mile radius. Grocery store in my back yard. I am sighted on off hours. With a mask. Always. Although personally, I believe in the conspiracy.
The unknowing business with the work situation took about 3 weeks and the sudden change raked havoc on me mentally. I'm still not sleeping well, and in desperate need of a new bed.
Been cleaning, going through things, and have started mount goodwill or get of of the house pile. Have been changing my though process on the whole idea of capitalism. Much thinking on all accounts.
Fixed the fence on the property line to the east of me, unexpectedly the last few days. Good project done, but was sort of a fiasco.
Will spend the weekend low key, and really less contact with outside world. Just rather be in my own little world that I found myself in.
