Covid-19 - Stay Safe and Healthy
30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT March 19th
COVID-19. Itโ€™s affecting all of us in one way or another. Never in our lifetimes have we seen something of this magnitude and severity. So today, check in with yourself and your fellow competitors - how are you? Where is your head at? Whatโ€™s worrying you? Letโ€™s gather our WDC community around us and hunker down together.


I hope everyone is okay. I'm doing fine. I am trying to stay socially distanced. I live with my 82 year old mother, so I want to take care for her and not carry anything home. The only thing I have been doing out of the house in the last few days has been going for walks. Although I did get pizza tonight.

The sign on the Domino's door asked for no more than 4 customers in the store at a time and also requested that we wait the 10 - 12 minutes in our car while we waited for the order to be filled.

Yesterday two of my writing groups have gone into virtual mode. I have learned a great deal about Google Hangouts and Discord in the last 24 hours. I still have things to work out. On Discord I am two different people - one on my phone and one on my computer. I could carry on a conversation with myself.

I have been trying to do the edits on a short story I have going into an anthology, but I have also been procrastinating and doing a lot of cleaning. My desk area is finally tidy.

My biggest concern has been financially. I am lucky to have gotten a long term teaching position this year. That means I will still get paid while the school's are out after March Break.

I worry what this pandemic is going to do with our economy.

I am trying to remain calm and not let the concerns and closures get to me.

Stay safe and healthy out there people. I am glad I have this community to help me keep my sanity.
