How Are you?

How is everyone doing? Are you feeling stressed? Has the virus affected you in a big way? I hope you are all doing well. I only know of a couple neighbors who have the virus and my kids know of a few people but thank godness it has not gotten to us. We have plenty of food and my girls in the coop are producing more than ever! 

How have you been keeping busy? Besides cleaning, I've been organizing, reading, working on my various country décor pages and cooking! Being confined really doesn't bother me a great deal. I have a lot to do here! I've enjoyed menu planning and coming up with some special extras and desserts.

Its amazing how quiet the whole world has gotten. Very few cars go down my street. The other evening, it was already dark, and I just went outside and sat on my porch. Complete silence! It was both beautiful and unnerving. I live in the suburbs; not on a farm or in the country. There is always some type of sound. Not now. We have to know though that this is temporary. The noise, the hustle and bustle and all the anxieties of daily life will return. Sports will return and restaurants will be full. Perhaps we should enjoy the solitude? The only problem with that right now is that people are sick.

My kids had the fire pit going the other night. They stayed outside till midnight. My son's girlfriend is a country music fan so they  watched a concert on the tv they hooked up out there and enjoyed the beautiful fire and the night sky. I'm glad they do things like that. They take long walks. My son works full time but always made time for the outdoors.

I hope you stay well and stay safe! I will speak to you soon!
