Adventures Staying at Home...

[Shadrach]

I have always social distanced myself from humanity all my life, and I have never had an issue with finding things to do inside the house or outside. So in this respect I can't tell the difference! But the overall vibe of this thing that seems to be circling the globe, all the death, the suffering, the anxiety, etc..... I seem to be picking up on it, empathizing even though I have distanced myself from even the news to save my sanity, . And this is the part that has me on edge.

Not a lot of point in worrying about something you can do nothing about.
I'm interested in what's going on but as an observer; I'm hardly a participant in modern consumer life.

Exactly. It's going to run its course no matter how much we stew or not stew on it. I just can't look at the news anymore, it causes me way too much anxiety. We live completely isolated from society out here in the middle of nowhere, neighbors are miles away, absolute silence, I have always needed my space from humanity. I don't know how people live so close together.

As a family we have always kept a distance between us and the neighbors.. Even in the city. Not that we are not friendly but just that We dont go borrowing a cup of sugar or Socialize over the fence...

Product of a dad who was raised in a family with TB all his sisters had it and survived... and a mom who had Agoraphobia. So No hugging or kissing in this family even. I had to learn how to give a hug later on in life.

This is why I love my land so much. I choose to socialize when I go into town but Rarely invite anyone up to the house.

I have had exactly one party. and It was a Come as you can affair with finger foods. Had a great turn out about ten or twelve people... Not all at once. and all Work friends.

If we ever meet in person, I’m hugging you. You’ve been warned.

A bit of good news for you chocolate fanciers. Easter here at least has gone very low key and this has meant the Easter chocolates are not selling in the supermarkets apparently. Lots of half price stuff here.
