I am beginning to see the light at the end of the coronavirus tunnel. Last week, I received my first vaccination. By mid-April, I hope to be fully vaccinated. My husband has had both of his shots. Is there a chance we can sit in a restaurant this summer? Take a road trip? See our friends and family?
We have been very fortunate throughout this ordeal. We are not caring for school-age children or elderly relatives. We are not going to full-time work, in person or over Zoom. We’ve had food, toilet paper, and occasional dinners at home with our adult children — a risk we weighed and were willing to take.
During this time, I tinkered with writing a second book, but didn’t get very far. I organized a lot of photos, but didn’t finish “albuming” them (I made up that word. I am a writer, I can do that).
However, I did spend a lot of time reviewing my life and putting notes into a spreadsheet. Want to know which year I went to the Bahamas? Let me look that up!
What does this have to do with psychics or metaphysical principles? Not much. I am just reminded that as much fun as it is to look at the “the big picture of life,” we also need to appreciate the smaller picture: daily living, good chili, and fresh vegetables, as well as the technology which helps us work on the projects we love and which supports our contact with one another. My computer is my faithful co-worker. When we take a water cooler break, we scan the news and (sometimes) roll our eyes.
Most of the time, I enjoy a quiet home-centered life. I am very fortunate to have a husband to talk to so I don’t spend long days muttering only to myself. He listens to my stories and I hear about his geocaching adventures.
I’ve trained myself to go to the grocery store every 7-10 days, not every time I realize I need to make dinner again. Our freezer is my friend. There’s always something to heat for dinner. I’m grateful for that.
I continue to work at the Gallery a few days each month. We wear masks and keep our distance. The big surprise at the Gallery has been the steady customers. Art still sells. Other people still travel. Who knew?
Last month, I interviewed a psychic – from 10 feet away. I’m editing that interview and should have new info for you to read in a couple of months. I’m grateful to work on a project which I find fascinating and which encourages me to get to know people in a deeper way than normal conversation.
One thing I have missed is our channeling group. I missed seeing these friends, laughing with them, hearing messages from Spirit, and the general healing which comes from hanging out with like-minded people.
I've also missed lunches with my girl friends, though we have kept touch over the phone and through texting.
I kind of wish I had accomplished more while staying home for the last year. I could have written a book or taken more walks. I could have eaten more fruit and fewer cookies. But, overall, I love this life. I have no complaints. I live in gratitude for my health, my financial security, and the love from all of the people I love.
I hope you are also enjoying your life. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. I’m not talking about the big tunnel with the BIG light, but the smaller tunnel of daily life moving forward towards something a bit more normal.
Thanks for reading the blog and sharing your thoughts with me.
