The world is different now and will
continue – I would hope for the better.
Afterall we are all going through the same thing together – but apart. Some people are using their time wisely and
even grateful for the time of solitude.
Others are going stir crazy and blaming anybody who remotely looks Asian
for the pandemic. Really? Did history Not teach you anything? American citizens who might have ancestors
who lived in China or Japan or wherever.
American citizens who have never known life other than America but
because of their skin type are sent away to “camps” for the safety of “real”
Americans. That very thought makes my
blood boil. How dare we cast blame to an
entire population who had as much control over the decisions of leadership they
may not even be related to. And even if
they are related, so what? If I learned
that I was related to Hitler or Atilla the Hun, their decisions would have
obviously had no influence whatsoever from me.
Just so everybody in Canada and all
other parts of the world (United States included) I did NOT vote for
Trump. The guy is definitely NOT eloquent
with words (see here). The guy’s an idiot – offending Canadian citizens the way he
did. The media claimed he announced that
US would Not be sharing medical supplies such as facial masks with our
neighboring country. I hope the citizens
of Canada realize that Trump does not represent all Americans. I know a couple of people who admit to being
Trump followers, but almost everyone I have talked to mirrors the same
expression that he is the worse president that the United States has ever
had. He comes across as very childish
and totally lacks compassion.
New York has more Covid cases than any
other place on earth from my understanding (again, who knows what to believe?)
and are OUT of supplies. It may be that
US would like to share their supplies but don’t have supplies to share.
My grandson was born in upper state
New York. It doesn’t appear that there
were any complications. Mom and baby
seem to be doing fine. I think my son is
bored. He still drives to work but will
be working from home online. Lots of
work and schooling online. US internet
is not near as fast as other countries.
I always wonder how long we’ll last before we freeze or before the power
goes out. When everybody finally does
stay at home and there is no one out to fix whatever goes wrong.
We had picked out new flooring for the
bathrooms. Roland was worried about
having toilets uninstalled at not reinstalled.
We cancelled due to cornavirus. I’m
grateful for the things that we do have.
New flooring would be nice but so unnecessary at this time.
