To Celebrate or Not


I have not been overly or overtly celebrating my survival of COVID-19.  I won't say I kicked Corona's ass.  I can't say I won.  I think my speaking it, feeling it, even thinking it does a disservice to the ones who didn't survive.  I don't have survivors' guilt.  Just a lot of questioning and a whole lot of sadness and at times numbness.  I am not asking, "Why me" and answering "Why Not Me."  No, I didn't and wouldn't sign up to take one for the team and neither should all the others.  I don't wish this demonic disease on anyone.  But, I will be okay.  I will get there.  In time.  On my time.

In the meantime, I feel like celebrating my birthday next week.  So, please join me.

Heather Dawn's 64th Birthday Bash
Wednesday, May 6, 2020
7:00 p.m.

Please wear bright colors



And in the meantime, you take care of you.  While you are doing everything to be safe physically, you also need to take care of your mental and emotional health.  These have been trying times.  Stay abreast of the news, but don't be obsessed with it.  Switch channels.  This is advice for you and for me.
