A Visit From Grouchy Smurf

Monday, April 13, 2020

Some days I have to release my inner Grouchy Smurf.  Remember Grouchy?  He hated everything.  


Is it just me or is anyone else tired of every television commercial being about how "we are all in this together".  I'm over it.  I don't want to hear how proud they are of me for staying home or give me more instructions on how to wash my hands.  Don't get me started on celebrities making this all about themselves. Claire Campbell, I don't want to hear how your law firm is here for us via teleconferencing options.  That goes for you too every car dealership in Charlotte.  

Good Friday

Friday, April 10, 2020

Today is Good Friday and I just watched my pastor lead our annual service...online.  Last night, I watched our Maundy Thursday service with my parents as they took communion with grape juice and a cracker.... a memory I will treasure always.  

Here.  Here is where I just typed 3 paragraphs about how I've been struggling with anxiety this week. I erased it.  While I want to be real and authentic on my blog, I don't want bring too much negativity.  I'm sending a big thank you to my dear friend, Miranda, for generously giving me several face masks.  Dad and I have to go inside of a major hospital next week to see his urologist.  I may have had a slight terror attack at the thought of walking into a hospital and trying to keep myself and my 85 year old father COVID-19 free. Ok, I did internally freak out.  

One of the joys of working from home has been hearing my dad cut his grass almost daily.  The first day, I was working in my office when I heard the lawn mower start.  It made my heart smile knowing that he was feeling good enough to get outside and cut some grass.  In fact, I even think I posted a picture on the blog.  Almost every day after, while sitting at my desk working, I am hearing the lawn mower start up and seeing him going around and around again.  The trees have all come out and I can't see him from my window anymore, so I have walked over to snap pictures a couple of times.  

 You can't see it well, but he is making a funny face for the camera....
