The Return of The Grim One

Word of The Day Challenge: BODACIOUS

I followed all the rules during the shut down, I kept following them when we went up a phase and some of us were lucky enough to have jobs to go back to.

There was one thing I did not do and it really upset me.

The one thing I did not do was wear the scary, macabre masks- like this one

or this one

Why you might ask.

Well. That’s simple.

Because EVERYONE was wearing them, plus there was no sport in trying to scare people who were already scared or primed for more horrors to come.

So I did not wear my skull face scarf mask during the winter and I did not break out my plague doctor mask ( you made these work by wearing a surgical mask under them, but they aren’t comfortable to wear without the surgical mask so I gave it a hard pass).

But now I am super excited because at the end of June Washington state opens back up and as of now fully vaccinated people can opt out of wearing masks in most places.

Do you know what THAT means?

Oh yes baby, your Lil’ Grim one from My Enduring Bones gets to go back to her spooky looking masks and scarves… how BODACIOUS is this! Bring on June 30th…I’m ready!

Tired of It All

RDP FRIDAY: TIRED

The fantasy stories spun during the Covid Lockdown in Washington State were brain melters.

I am so tired of them ALL. More then any of the other perks that will come with Washington state opening back up at the end of June, the best will be that I won’t have to eat word salad stories like these anymore:

When we were in the midst of lockdown you told us your story about driving to Eastern WA and hanging out with people not from your household…but as you explained it, they are ‘family’ and it was okay because seeing family was a ‘safe’ activity.

You didn’t get the part about how that only works if you actually live under the same roof.

Later that Summer you posted pictures of you visiting family in Idaho and again you stressed it was a safe activity because everyone you saw were family so you were sure it was ‘safe’ when you all gathered around the table and helped the birthday guy blow out candles on a tray of cupcakes

and then you and your “family” stood six feet apart outside and ate them-

and to top this all off you later last winter you went to party with your “Pod” and lo and behold some of the guests came down with Covid-19

all I can say is

I’m surprised more people that you know aren’t dead.

The End.
