Thank You for Brining Joy to Our Neighborhood

The two young girls at the house up on our street were outside with their Mom and Dad and Grandpa… they waved hello to me, which was special because they had previously been shy when I came… I did not notice but the Mom handed the older one a little poster – it had a rainbow design and the words “Thank You for Brining Joy to Our Neighborhood”…. This was absolutely priceless and it made me feel so happy.  I told them I would put it in the window by our front door so they could see it when they walked by with Mom and Dad.

Today, Monday, the Mom was pulling the girls in a wagon blowing bubbles, I could see she was showing them the poster in the window, I could not get to the door in time to wave to them,

I have been delivering cookies weekly on Sunday’s to most of the neighbors since the lockdown started and the support group was not able to meet…. I have enjoyed baking different cookies every week for the support group so I decided to give to the neighbors.  Also including the ladies I shop for.

I am happy to do it and see the joy it brings to those I get to speak to.. but this little surprise made my day. 

One of the other families made this gnome candle for me, which also was very special.

As we approach the opening up the world we are all nervous to some degree and the news cycle is constantly negative or sensationalized.

Through the doctor group for one of my doctors they are offering antibody test, I have an appointment on Thursday morning.  We will see if I have the antibodies.

Hopefully it tells if I have had the virus and also hope it helps the statistics needed to figure the best course of action as things open up.

I ran a few times this week, four to five miles each time.

I will need to get more structured starting in June – follow a ten week  training plan for the half marathon in mid-September.

My best wishes for good health and happiness for all my readers.
