SEPTEMBER
What A MONTH.... It seemed at times like it was never going to end. Full of hurricanes and earthquakes, fires, pandemic and upheaval all over the country and world. I was afraid to even see the news on tv each day because it just got worse. Certainly not like any other September I have lived through. Remember those days??? The ones where all you worried over was the winter to come and how bad it might be? Did you get all your leaves raked up etc. Simple days of no worries about the world and its problems.
I sure miss those days. Will it ever ever get back to those days. My opinion is NO. Things have changed the world is all different now and we will never see those days again. That sounds so negative but it's what I think. We will someday get back to NOT having to wear masks. Might take a year or two. I just don't think that our days of violence in the streets will be over for a long time. The winter weather might stop some of it but it will not go back to the way things were before.
For me, I am grateful I have not been sick. I got my flu shot and was told it would maybe help but they have no idea how effective it will be this year with Covid around. We are smarter now wearing masks and keeping cleaner.. so maybe FLU will not be as bad. I guess we just wait and see.
One of my best friends has NOW moved outside the state of California and I am ever so glad. Living in the fire zones was so stressful. Now that it is yearly and not seasonal.. it just was so scary every single day there. One of our tenants moved this month and we will miss him here. He was here 3 years. Sad because he said he did not want to move but HAD to. They increased the rent and he needed to be in a place he could afford. I totally understand where he is coming from. I hope it never happens to me. Moving around as much as I have in my life and then being without a home for 3 years.. well this is home now and I do not want to move again.
Well must wrap this up.. another month down. Where ever you are I hope you are well and safe.
