Had a bowl of Cheerios with no fat milk and watered down OJ for breakfast.  I really want a Snapple.  Ugh!!!

But I could not pivot on life.  Being unable to attend a simple lunch with friends or a life event like their wedding.  And when I did make it they had no idea how difficult it was for me.  I never wanted anyone to know.   Covid was a...
