I’m trying to stay out of the news and conspiracy theories. I’m comforting myself by mindlessly reading reddit. I downloaded three books for kindle but haven’t gotten to them yet.

I’ve been talking to my brother and SIL via FaceTime quite often. My other SIL doesn’t have an iPhone so I haven’t been able to video chat with her yet. She’s still playing the perfect mom/wife on fb and doing 180 on me in her texts.
Possible trigger:


RS hates being stuck inside so he went out and rototiller me a little space for a veggie garden yesterday. I just have to figure out how to get some seeds. Evidently Home Depot and Lowe’s have started taping off the garden center, claiming it is not “essential”. They are also not shipping seeds online. I am unclear as to whether independent garden centers are open. I think they are but I’m not sure.

I’m still getting dizzy quite often. Usually not severe, but yesterday I had a migraine and slept for two hours and when I sat up I got very dizzy and almost fell forward. I’ve been very careful getting up and leaning down today. There seems to be no specific trigger; today I stood up just fine only to sit down quickly and have my head spin. I wonder if I have something wrong with my ears. Head CT in ER a couple of weeks ago showed nothing, as did bloodwork. I wish I could go to my primary. I guess I could do a video visit if need be.
This whole COVID thing is changing daily. I limit my news big time...

You did the right thing about your SIL, you gave her numbers and now take a big ole step back.. You have to take care of your own mental health.

You can buy fresh green beans and melons for seeds to grown your own, Would be a great thing for your son to do too

Take care of you and your family
