Dear Friends:
There is an odd feeling in the air today. Rumors of North Korea's leader, Kim Jong-Un's death, yet to be confirmed, talk of tension in states that are opening, heated debates about vaccines and covid-19 testing and conspiracy theorists foaming at the mouth with talk of government surveillance thinly disguised as contact tracing.

I must admit, my heart is racing. I have a feeling of impending doom.
But then again, I had too much caffeine today - my usual black tea with fresh ginger, orange peel, lemon and cardamom in the morning, two Diet Cokes in the afternoon.
I really need to cut back on Diet Coke. Like disinfectants, ingesting Diet Coke will not kill the coronavirus, and long term use could kill you! Well ingesting disinfectants would be a quicker death than Diet Coke, and probably does not taste as pleasant. I am not about to try.
The good news is I woke up early and went for my run this morning. Despite the rain! Today was more walk, less jog, but I covered more ground.
I am not giving up! I rarely give up.
But I am going to try and unwind now. Drink a cup of HERBAL tea. Play a little piano. Read a book.
Death awaits us all, but I intend on enjoying every minute of my life while I am still here!
If any of you are experiencing pandemic anxiety and/or depression, here is a helpful article:

And my life beckons! Sleep tight. Breathe deep. Talk to you tomorrow!
Love,
