April 4, 2020 - Returning from Long Absence

What do you do when you are isolated from family and friends?  Find an old blog and update it.

In former years the whole family would visit for Spring Break 10 days but no flying right now.  They were here for a couple 4 days after New Years Eve and that was it for this year.  The daughter who lives a few minutes away here in Florida was here quite a bit with her sister and nieces.

This is my 3rd week seeing almost no one.  Several of his friends stopped by that first week but no more.  Daughter who lives nearby was coming over often to feed us but even she is staying away.  A few cars go by in the morning, mostly workers in Laurel Reserve.  One motorcycle goes by every day.


----------------------------------------------------------------
Since then the Corona Virus has dominated our new reality.  The girls couldn't come back for Spring Break.  Younger son and his girlfriend didn't come for their usual visit.  Dear friends who were planning on a visit cancelled.  Even his neighbor-buddies are distancing themselves.  So here we sit entertaining ourselves.

We tried a distance meet yesterday...daughters Carrie (MI) and Katie (NJ), granddaughter Gabby (MI) and me (FL).  Granddaughter Abby (MI) came on her mother's feed and my son, Andy (MI) made a brief appearance.  Video chats help.

I tried a drawing challenge.
That didn't go so well.

I tried an Isolation Photography Challenge but I was so restricted to our yard and house that I couldn't do some of the challenges.








I started an Isolation Coloring challenge but got bored

Then I tried a Isolation Photographic Art challenge using the program PAINNT and I may do a bit more with that.



I will check back tomorrow.  Keep safe everyone.
