Hunkered Down

I talked with all my kids and grandkids for Mother's Day, which was the next best present I could have been given. The best present would have been visits in person but that is a ways off.

It's not that I haven't been planning a trip. I can't wait to get to Boston and have been hoping against hope that I could go this summer.

But after chatting with family in that area and reading all the updated stats and guidelines, I don't know when I will be able to go. It could be months.

Phone calls and video chats will need to be enough. 

The good news is that we are all healthy. Those who are employed are mostly working from home and following the safest protocols when they do go into work. 

My cupboards are stocked, and I have recipes to try. I have fabric and patterns. I go from project to project so it takes awhile to finish any one thing. There is always something to do.

It's a strange time.
