Quarantine...Shelter In Place

A New Year an New Adventure! Life is an adventure is 2020's understatement. This year certainly began with a bang and I'm not referring to fireworks and gun shots of New Year celebratory activities. January got off to a rocky start with lost jobs, a lost pregnancy and lastly lost time. The older we get the faster the years pass and the less time we have to do the things we want to do, see the people we long to see, have meaningful conversations with the oldsters about their future, snuggle the youngers with hugs and sloppy kisses and I love yous. Never enough time for coffee dates, or game nights, no time for girls nights or Sunday afternoon movies. I never thought those times would end but the faster the years pass the less time there is for those things that mean so much...to us.  Kids are grown, grands are off to discover the world while we hang on to every second that the littles can still find joy in our presence. Soon the time will have slipped us by and we will just be...just the two of us, wasting precious time.

So the adventure part happened the end of January when it became clear that the world was facing a pandemic of apocalyptic proportions, the likes of not seen for a hundred years. Today, half way through the year it's obvious that what turned our world upside down in 2020 is a lie. How easy it is for Satan to deceive...wake up!
