You really don't know on how it feels to tell your kids that they might have to move out of the house.
i mean wearing masks are now not only acceptable but required........always could go the ski mask route of getting money lol

Hospitals are getting hit hard putting elective procedures on the back burner and not receiving covid patients as predicted.
They arent offering you guys monetary compensation for volunteering? 2 wks pay per year of employment?

Sometimes I just wanna cry the simplest things we took for granted before is actually gone. Who would think that America would even run out of TP that I personally abused excessively used and treating it as its noting of any value. Now I cant even find one...

Freedom is only a word now...This the land of the Free as we boastfully say...Where is our freedom now... I cant even fu*king hug my son!!!
I even sleep alone in our guest room.

Its like your alive but your dead...


A simple hug...A simple kiss...I cant do...that breaks me more than anything.

Sorry guys just having one of those days...of sadness.

Indeed Im a clown makes people laugh but ..,,yes but.. Im also vulnerable.
i'm gonna be honest.....i dont think me and my dad have hugged since i was 5 lol

i read your post and sat back like hmmm i honestly cant even remember that last time or if ever i hugged my dad. guess just not how we operate?

Yeah, and I aint a spring chicken anymore. The thought of having to start over again somewhere really takes the wind out of the 'ol sails.

What you see is what we get. The mandatory reduction in patients and procedures is killing us.

Like I mentioned before, theres alot of people in my apartment complex that cant pay their rent. The apartment managers told me that most of them have never been late on rent and some have been here for several years.
Im already putting together round 2 of care packages and hopefully more people get involved.
