I was going to save this and post it closer to New Years Eve, but when I went over the song ” I Wanna be Sedated ” by the Ramones it also seems to work on the Covid-19 stay at home situation too.
So go on, laugh, sing, yell- and Hey Ho Let’s Go enjoy it.

RDP Tuesday Prompt: MASK
Behind my mask
sometimes I smile
and sometimes I cry
and sometimes all I do is curse and curse and curse.
The truth is:
Behind my mask
I’m not really smiling
I’m not shedding tears
but I really am cursing and cursing and cursing
And if you ask me why it’s because:
I don’t own just one mask
I own more then three
they each look different but they’re really the same
and when I put them on
the one thing they all do
is make me curse and curse and curse.
Last year I got ahold of some recipe books that I had lost several years ago in a move and they arrived just in time for Christmas.
I was so excited to get back to cooking that I went out and bought some new kitchen ware and knives. I planned a menu. I was even looking into buying new tableware. I thought that the Spring and Summer were going to be awesome- I saw dinner parties and weekend brunches in my very near future.
Then March rolled around and everything shut down and I was even off of work for a month- which wasn’t bad considering I had a job to go back to. I was grateful, but there was a grimness that came along with that situation and I wasn’t exactly turning cartwheels when at least part of my life came back.
Now there is a possibility that I could be vaccinated by the Summer and you would think I’d be excited to see that my stalled plans could be put into motion.
I wish I could feel more energetic. I wish I could bust out the rest of my holiday decorations but of course for the rest of the year I won’t be seeing my family over the holidays and it hardly seems to be worth the effort.
Besides.
I feel like the rest of this year is just something I have to get through- sad but true. It hasn’t stopped me from trying to find ways to adjust my outlook and I keep thinking I will feel that sizzle and spark but it hasn’t happened yet.
Well.
There is always tomorrow.

Word of the Day Challenge: Spontaneous

Let’s just call her Cootie Girl.
Cootie Girl is one of many adult children in a family that are
Proud Anti-Vaxxers
Proud Anti-Maskers
and need I say, they are hardcore Trump Supporters.
Since March Cootie Girl and her ginormous family invite their friends over on the weekends to ‘support each other’ by getting together and ‘breaking bread and staying positive’
So over Thanksgiving Cootie Girl hung out with her Proud Anti Mask family and their friends and then…
she took a picture of herself delivering meals to the elderly later while wearing the same mask she wears at work and hangs on her rearview mirror over night because that ‘kills the germs’.
I know this because she hangs out in the breakroom with her co-workers and maskless, Cootie Girl and her fellow Cooters swapped holiday stories with each other and word about what some might think is reckless behavior gets around.
They have told our mutual friends that they are ‘safe’ because they are together all day anyway and there is no way they’re spreading Covid-19.
Of course, Cootie Girl and the Cooters carpool at the end of the day and they don’t wear their masks- you know, the masks they have told each other you only have to let it air out because the germs die overnight if the mask isn’t on your face.
My winner of this Fandango’s Winner of the Week is Cootie Girl and all of the Cooters who seem to do a better job of spreading a potentialy lethal Virus then common sense.
