healthy should be foremost in our minds. Somewhere around mid October if you have an aliment talk to your doctor and see if he will give you enough of whatever you need to stay strong thru the end of the year. Pick up some of the vitamins and various herbal medicines that help to keep you healthy so you don't have to rely on a doctor's prescription. Extra glasses, contacts, and other items you need every day.

Folks poo poo these things but but look what has changed in the last 6 months. In those 6 months how many of you have been able to see a doctor other than on the screen of an I phone. I haven't. How difficult has it been just to go to a pharmacy to pick up some prescriptions. How hard has it been in the last few months even just to go to Walmart to pick up some TP? Most stores only allowed a handful of folks in at a time and if they had the items you needed you were only allowed a small amount. And all these things were going on in fairly peaceful times. Imagine how different it might be doing these things in some of the cities where rioting and roaming gangs are the norm and most of the stores were shut down.

I know it hard for us to imagine things like this as other than the last 6 months we have grown up in a peaceful time period where the worst things were gas rationing back in the late 60s. This corona virus has thrown us for a loop and it has been something that we were not ready to handle. We have lost family friends and members to the virus and it is not over yet. I am hearing a new version of the H1N1 virus may be heading our way. So our future may be decidedly different from our past. We don't know what is heading our way. Good Lord willing it won't be as bad as projected but we can't guarantee that. All I can recommend is do what we can while we can.
