Its almost the end of what has been a year we’ve never experienced anything like before, and one we’ll never forget.
As the year ends, and my audience grows, I’d like to take a moment to reflect on what I’ve gone through, because I know I’m not alone here and I’m positive we can relate.
As the year began I had high hopes for 2020. I mean, yes they pulled Friends off Netflix, which should’ve been my first que, but anyways… come February the talks of the pandemic began. At first I thought “no big deal, its all the way in another country. No way it’ll make it here.” I couldn’t have been more wrong. By March 13th, our whole world changed, but I had no idea what 2020 was about to reign down.
I mentioned in an earlier post I have a few health issues. I’ve talked about my thyroid, but aside from that I also fight off anxiety, depression, and mania. The anxiety and depression have been up, causing me to seek help when I needed it. I feel isolated, bored, lonely. I miss my family. I miss dates with my husband. I miss running errands when I need to without a second thought.
Holidays: I’ve spent every holiday this year away from family, and it kills me I won’t see them this Christmas.
Housewife duties: I’ve had a hard time keeping up. I’m finding it hard to motivate.
With all of that said, there’s been some good that came from 2020. Family has never meant so much to me, as it does now. My kids and I feel closer. I’ve taken life for granted for far too long, and I’ve learned I’m not getting any younger. Its caused me to take a look at what I have and for the first time in life I’m perfectly content and feel very, very blessed.
How are all of you ladies doing or keeping up?
