The Lost Holidays…..
The Coronavirus is crippling all of us.I know it has to be hard on so very many of you. For me, I have been under “house arrest” since March. Immune system. Not pretty. Getting ugly at this point. Not only am I stuck I also am having vertigo problems……FOR 5 WEEKS NOW. I hate the fact that I, like so very many, missed Easter. In my faith, Greek Orthodox, is a big deal.The baking, cooking for a week ahead of time. I always have dinner. After Church it’s a happy house for me. And now Mother’s Day. My sons are so great on this day. This year, I will talk on the phone and miss them terribly….So many of you will experience the same loss.. And it is a loss. We miss our family, our friends. Stores closed, can’t get your hair or nails done. By the way how are you managing that at home?. Me, not so much .Certainly doesn’t come close to even a beginner. I think I would have been better off using a bowl to cut my hair. But, I’m home so who is going to see me? Now, we have Memorial Day…..what are you going to do? How will you celebrate? We are going to fire up the grill, sit on the lawn chairs in the back yard, slap on some groovy music and make the best of it.. Just the two of us. Sometimes a little good comes out of a challenge. With my husband working we didn’t spend a lot of time together. I love having him home now. We have breakfast together! Sitting across the table, talking and just enjoying each other is a real treat. It’s a feeling you never want to end. And, we’re actually cooking supper together. Now, that is a treat. It’s all good. It’s that kind of good you want to last. So, maybe your holidays are lost for now, remember the sun will come up, tomorrow is another day and there is always a silver lining if we just look for it………
Until the next time…..may your days be bright with laughter and filled with an abundance of love
