Here I sit.

I have a blood draw at one and it’s eleven.
There’s nothing to do in class.  Well, there’s always something, but I’m not doing it right now. The house is quiet save for the clanking in the dryer.

I’m actually kind of nervous about the blood draw.
Okay.   I famously hate needles, but after being stuck every morning in the House, I kind of came to terms with that.

What I am nervous about are the results.
I certainly didn’t keep up with my draws in Florida and I don’t think I had any for several months prior.   So, it’s probably been about a year.

They’re going to suck – me – dry.

Iron. Thyroid. White blood cell.  Various vitamins. Red blood cell.

Okay.   So I don’t know what else there is besides those, but there’s a lot I don’t know about and it’s all due.

The ones I’m most concerned with are iron and thyroid.   I should not be feeling as tired as I am.

Little sister offered to take me, which might be a good thing.   I could feel a little light-headed when it’s done and it’s raining on and off.    Just heavy downpours followed by clouds and more heavy rain.  It’s kind of unusual.   Sprinkling does not need to apply.

It’s supposed to rain most of the day tomorrow too.
I guess I’m okay with that.   A lot of the fields have been planted.   Rain is needed.

What exactly is going to happen to the harvest is anyone’s guess because of this covid thing.

I don’t want to think about covid.   I think it places me under some personal stress that I don’t want to acknowledge.  But, it is everywhere.   Everywhere, everywhere.  Masks.  Signs. Warnings.   It’s on the news.   It’s a topic of discussion in the house.

This is a change.
Personally, I think I handle some changes pretty well.  Change of milk from skim to 1%.   I’m on it!  Going from carpet to wood floors.    Not a problem.

Covid thing, not so much.   I’ll go about society and everything just fine, but it’s not — it can’t — be a permanent change.

There are too many negatives.

Course, it is kind of funny – in a way.
When Obama was president, there were rumors that he was going to prioritize healthcare.  i.e. Anyone who was not useful in society may not receive adequate health care – if any at all.    This would be babies with issues and our elderly.

Covid has been partly marketed as a way to save the elderly.   The very same who was on the death list for Obama.

Another striking difference between the administrations.

Anywho, although I love Florida, it is a bit quieter here.
The mix of rain and birds outside the window and barely chilled air is a nice contrast to the brightness of the southern state.

Gotta keep moving.   Gotta keep moving. Least I die.
