ACTUALLY TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF MY LIFE!

No spouse and no employer since June 14, 1987!

I'M FREE!

I traveled to my office yesterday to submit my machine and my badge. I was vividly reminded of the long commute and the main reason for my decision.

Before going into the office I had a dr. appt. I had to attend due to a scheduled vaccination. It was a zoo; there was a clinical worker taking everyone's temperature; if a patient presented with a fever he or she wasn't admitted!

But I was fine!

TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE LOUISE MCBRIDE

I never thought anything like this would happen.

On Feb. 22 my response was, "So what? Don't go to Asia."

Now it is middle April. My employment ends tomorrow; I have known this for several months.

This is due to a reorganization and does not merely affect me.

For personal reasons I opted out of interviewing and staying.

Welcome To The New Normal.

Welcome To My Nightmare; or rather welcome to the nightmares I experience every evening.

Life During A Pandemic

I get up same as my usual work from home days. I make my coffee, eat my breakfast, grab the newspaper and watch some TV. Then I make my bed and proceed to get washed and dressed for the day.

Then folks, it is time to fire up the laptop!

No gym since the evening of Monday March 16, 2020; I was literally one of the last people out of that particular location. Weather permitting every day I walk around the neighborhood. I have equipment for my toning exercises. Of course when I posted on facebook my intention to purchase weights some Billy Budinski promptly posted: "Stay home."

"But Louise I'm only concerned about the health and welfare of you and the entire community!"
