Hello, dear Ladies!
I am also in Florida, and so far, I'm well. The school I help teach at is closed for the foreseeable future, but that is a small thing, considering all the other things that are happening. Like most, we're on a 'voluntary lockdown.' Leaving the house is limited, and to be done for things like groceries. Store shelves have many barren places, (the lack of toilet paper has become something of a running joke) but there are still groceries to be had, so we're all grateful. (And we're all spending a lot more time with each other, in our house. My daughters' college classes are also 'cancelled,' or moved online.
I most worry for my mother, who is 77 and has breathing problems. But so far, she is fine. A brother lives near and we send over her groceries and other things. She misses being with people, and isn't computer literate, so we talk on the phone, daily.
I know the news from Italy is heart rending, and thank you so much, Sobi, for starting this thread. I thought of you often, and as the news became more dire I did try to reach you. (So silly of me for not thinking of doing it this way!) I'm so glad you're well. All the fans I know so far, are, also.
I think we are all a bit scared, but also greatly comforted by knowing each other. It is our human connections (and our divine ones) that give us strength, in these strange days.
Stay well and safe, all, and please know I'm thinking of our extended (mostly) sisterhood, and hoping for the best for us all.
With love, always,
Cindy
