Quarantine! by Mike Gonzales



Wow! What a month, eh?
I found myself sequestered at home on April 1st, no fool’n!

To say the least doing nothing is a challenge. First, I finished a WIP, then I went back to self-edit a couple of older stories.

Next, I binge watched three different series on Amazon Prime.

The day came when I shocked my darling companion by dusting my study. She nearly fainted!

I shocked myself when I just said “NO” to eBay!

Eventually, I broke out an old puzzle, spray painted all the pieces white, and started on it when it dried. Yesterday I gathered up all those pieces and tossed them into the garbage!

Like everyone, I’m counting the days till this is over. My darling companion refers to “a return to normalcy.” I wonder…will we ever return to life as it was?

I have to reply, “yes.” 
The 1918-19 pandemic, per capita, was infinitely worse, killing more people than WW1. And that horror was followed by “the roaring twenties!”


Bottom line; do not give up hope. We’ll survive this, together, and roar on into the rest of the 2020s!
