Here we are my darlings!!!
We are one year into a pandemic that most were thinking would only last what??? couple of months – me included!!
What have we learned?
That toilet paper will NOT run out.
Ok antiseptic wipes did but that was only because people went all ham and bought them all and then there was a shortage of raw materials that make the stupid things.
Flour, yeast, baking supplies CHECK!!! still all good – hey you who jumped on the sour dough bread thing??? way too much effort really…yes?
Home cooking – ok that I can truly get on board with – I have learned more about watching those crazy shows than I should!!! While I may be no gourmond… I can cook up a mean batch of whatever/egg roll in a bowl/one pot pasta/whatever.
I have learned to cook the perfect prime rib – and ya bitches – perfect!!!
Don’t get me wrong – I have had my hits and misses with meals. Can’t even go into the whole BBQ pork thing BUT the balsamic vinegrette CRUSHED!!!!
I can put on a mask in seconds and it has become part of my daily wardrobe – I do prefer the disposable black ones – the cloth ones were slightly claustrophic in warm stores BUT I do have a supply.
Downside – hands raw from sanitizer – upside no colds, flus, pink eye?
Here we are – long haulers on what has been the most oddly longest/shortest year of our lives with potentially and end game/ending perhaps.
It has for sure been a slice – it has been an interesting run and it is getting better and it will only improve.
That is my take – yep sticking/clinging to it – days are getting longer -the Golden Sun is warmer – better times my friends…better times ahead.
Until then – let’s just all respect each other and have patience and understanding on how we are going about our lives be it your belief or mine – we are all entitled to our views/opinions.
Forge on to better times shall we?
