Glad you guys are socializing in your own special way.
In my family, we have some sayings. One is, “The dread is worse than the doing.”
If I can trick myself into starting something, I at least escape the dread.
After years of creative writing for people who want to buy my house, one of them finally texted back!

Just reread your post. Three adults? Never mind. That’s crazy. Carry on with feelings.
I have one adult. It’s a new season, but you’re definitely still a character in their story.
Congratulations on reaching this milestone.
Grateful to Jeffrey Essmann, the editor who selected my poem to feature in the Catholic Poetry Room today.
