July 1st 2020
The virus is still here. 130,000 deaths in the U.S. Over 1/2 a million worldwide. The numbers in the US are going UP....while a lot of other countries are not. Some countries have gone back to "the new normal"; social distancing, wearing masks when out in public, limiting crowds......
Here in the United States, we'd rather fight about losing our rights than wear a mask to keep the virus from spreading. We'd rather get a haircut, our nails manicured and have a drink in a bar than try to knock this virus to the ground by all of us coming together. We can't even travel to the EU...we are banned until our Covid #'s decline......
I've started back to work. They opened the outdoor pool for lap swimming by reservation only. I've worked 9 hours as of this date. I am scheduled for about 18 per week for July. I'd rather not go at all....
The extra money we've all been getting is set to end sometime this month as well. I will use 98% of the unemployment/part time work money on rent. lolololololol
I'm not necessarily worried at this point. Things always seem to just go where they need to for me. I'll figure it out. I'm not alone......
#BlackLivesMatter
!!!!
The police killed another African American man....it was videotaped.....it was horrid.....it is unacceptable.....(and there are a lot more coming to the surface)
There have been many protests!...and with protests come riots. Much like the L.A.Riots, but different. Better. Perhaps some real change will happen and the Brothers and Sisters will be able to live like normal people, and not in fear.....
And you guessed it------More division. There are actually some americans who don't care that Black People are literally being murdered by cops. It's an ugly time to be living here in the States....
