I is for Isolation

In case you are wondering what retirement might look like for you and your spousal unit…think of this time as a trial run.

Except if you have young children and are having to homeschool. Then…well…never mind.

If you are not used to being around your spouse 24/7…as you can see, you are not alone in your thoughts. 










Hope you feel better now.

H is for Humble

If there was one word I would use as a descriptor for this pandemic it would be humbling.

COVID-19 has not discriminated based on race, religion, culture, social class or status. Nobody is exempt from getting it.

During this pandemic, medical personnel and first responders have been hailed as heroes and rightly so.

Yet another group of essential workers, who previously may have gone unnoticed by many, have also emerged as heroes. Grocery workers, factory workers and truckers just to name a few. Many who are underpaid, undervalued and unsupported.  They have kept us going. They truly deserve the recognition they are receiving.

One of my favourite songs is Humble and Kind (written by Lori McKenna and first released by Tim McGraw in January 2016). I loved it the first time I heard it.

In this version, Tim McGraw sings it ala social distancing. I hope you enjoy it.
