Day 8
Slept in.
Just feel tired and headachey.
I have been doing much more than normal. It is good, but I need to remember to watch my health more carefully.
Went on social media
Looked through my gg'mas old post cards. Found ones from during spanish flu.
Posted 3 of my family's post cards on twitter. I have some family post cards from during the 1918 influenza (aka the spanish flu), which lasted in the US from 1918 through 1920.
I thought I would post a few of the post cards, because, like tweets, they say a little about life during a pandemic, like a short story.
I have fewer postcards from this time period compared to before and after. I do not know if my great grandmother was just busier or life was more hectic for them in general.
I did notice they tried to talk even if they had nothing to say. ❤️ That's love.
Boyfriend and I are rating car alarms. First today was a little weak, not great sound. We have a favorite, it gets a lot of air time and it has a nice beat.
Went out for a walk around the neighborhood. It was rush hour on friday. It looked more like 8pm on a Monday. There was a jogger and a couple people doing yard work. We tried our best to navigate from parked cars and mail boxes.
Watched some youtube, faves being Jimmy kimmel with his fam with formal friday was cute and binging with babish and his pantry basics chickpea edition, very inventive.
Ended the night with popcorn and Australian soccer.
