Living on the Road

CORONAVIRUS

How that word has changed everybody's life.
It's grim, right now, with more and more cases and more and more deaths.

I flew to Denver to see my sister and mother and to see a knee specialist.  When I landed in Denver, it became clear that the situation was quickly getting serious.  I was able to visit with my sister and her husband Michael for a day but was only able to see my mom for about an hour.  As conditions worsened, Jim called to say he wanted me home.  So after only one real day, I flew home.  I was glad to be back I didn't want to be stuck away from my "pack".

Arriving home, I went to the grocery store to stock up (my pantry was depleted because I'd been sick for much of the past month).  This is what I faced:
Bare shelves

I simply stood in the aisle with tears streaming down my face.

Hopefully science will prevail and the world will recover.  No thanks to the Liar in the White House.
