Not here.
Not even close. But there are signs that we are looking forward.
First toilet paper started to reappear. A roll here or there. Then a pack, and even 2 brands to choose between. Then a Costco case.
Sanitizing wipes were next, though still scattered. It felt like you had to be in the right place at the right time.
And finally, the return of our most limited commodity, hand sanitizer! Only two per customer!
Delivered to our doorstep a few days ago. Held in isolation within the cardboard box for a few more days, and now available for use. We weren’t quite out, but I don’t feel like I need to hoard and consider whether each squirt should be used.
Purell’s are old, Germ-x new.
Life’s focus in these strange times.
On the, this is going to continue for some time vein, newly acquired skills: While wearing a mask I can scratch my nose by moving my chin.
We drove to Maple Leaf for our post work walk. After one half of a lap around the park we exited to the neighborhood sidewalks instead. Too crowded. Many kids on bikes and scooters, hardly anyone else with masks. I used to notice if they were wearing helmets. On the streets there are fewer folks and it’s just easier to make space. Keep our bubble. We are not perfect isolationists, but we do make an effort.
A good walk, and now it’s time to relax.
