Jack’d Up! Life during Covid

No, I’m not going to share with you the “numbers” or the “phase” we are in here in South Florida. But I will share with you my observations; an update on what I’ve been up to, and please let me know on a scale of 1-10, my sanity level.

  • I must have gained weight, my mask is getting a bit tighter!
  • I’ve noticed that watching an iguana on a papaya tree is like watching water boil. The minute you look away, either the water boils over or the Iguana is gone.
  • I know when all the good tv shows are on during the day, starting with Leave it to Beaver at 8am, Father Knows Best, Dennis The Menace, Hazel, I Dream of Jeannie, Bewitched… should I go on? Lol, it ends with Hogans Heroes at 11pm… Thank you Me TV!
  • I’ve read numerous books, both fiction and self improvement. The latest book was eye-opening and life changing! But I’ll do another post just on books, like a book club.. Does that mean that this pandemic is making me soft?
  • I’ve completed an on-line Hospitality class from FAU and earned a certificate. I guess that makes me certifiably more hospitable.
  • Speaking of watching tv, those daytime commercials on non-networks… cheap advertisers… they are terrible! I hate that commercial about the law suit against Johnson and Johnson with their baby powder causing Ovarian Cancer. the commercial goes on forever and its always in the middle of Dennis The Menace! And what about that health insurance commercial that came on shortly after the pandemic started.. his voice sounded like the devil talking! The point of the commercial was that if you didn’t have health insurance, you are going to die!
  • Thank g-d football is back! It almost feels normal on Thursday nights and Sunday afternoons. A brief moment in time comparatively speaking to feeling like we have our live’s back. I ain’t gonna lie, but when I see the empty stadiums, I feel a moment of loss and despair. The sport was built by fans for fans and without them participating, I feel the sport falls short.
