+1 on the hugs, especially when someone does something kind for you, like the woman who brings me fresh flowers to my office from her garden every week. 20200812_093649.jpg
We've had a number of events cancelled we were really looking forward to, but it makes me feel really badly for those whose livelihoods are affected by the cancellations, not just ours. We planned to go to Indian Wells for the tennis tournament, a 2-wk event overall, cancelled. Think of the vendors, tournament personnel, hoteliers and their employees, restaurateurs, local shopkeepers. DH was entered in a golf tournament, cancelled, same thing. I was registered for two needleworkers seminars and a retreat--cancelled. All those hotel and retreat center workers out of work. Then also, no gym or pool. All those folks on unemployment as well as us not being able to go see our buddies in the pool.
It's a bummer, but I have said all along, I'm glad this started when the weather was mostly good; we could at least get outdoors, garden, go fishing, take walk. It will be a challenge if it continues into the darkness of winter. I'm really starting to think about that. But, I'm an introvert; it will probably be easier for me than it will be for a true extrovert.
