I'm with you! In fact tonight after I walked out of the grocery store I told Mr G that I hate what China has done to us. I hate that little kids in the store look at you with fear because they don't know if you are smiling at them or not. I hate that I haven't been IN my son's house since January. I hate that they make decisions about seeing us based on how much we've been in public. I HATE that my grand kids can't run up to me to give me a hug.
And don't get me started on the election.......
I went to see my great grand kids on Saturday. We had lots of hugs, and no masks. Went to see my Dr. and took my mask off after I got to the exam room.
As I told him, I’m 73 years old, and the risk of death just ain’t that great. I’m gonna go sooner or later, but I ain’t gonna live without hugs and seeing smiling faces-life is just too short for that.
But we live in a rural area, so it’s different than being in the city-and we don’t really go out beyond our garden that much anyway.
My boss just told me he’s not going to take us stragglers out to a fancy Thanksgiving dinner this year because he doesn’t want to be in a crowded restaurant. I was disappointed because I usually have NOTHING to do on t-giving, but then I thought Oh My Stars this is going to cause a whole new round of restaurant closings, and probably devastate the turkey industry since they depend on this holiday so much.
