week number what?

I've lost count on what week of the "stay at home order" we are in. I can tell you the things that have happened in the last ten days that I never thought would happen:

  • A specialist we've used for twenty years refused to see Bobby.
  • I became the owner of a longarmer. (a specialized quilting machine for those not in the quilting world)
  • I yelled at a hospital receptionist. I must have been quite loud,  for an office worker down the hall stuck her head out the office door and answered all my questions/corrected all the receptionist's erroneous statements.
  • My husband gave some very simple legal advise to a friend, and in return we are getting a toilet paper donation, of which I am ecstatic about. Last roll was going on the holder tomorrow!!
  • Grocery stores shelves are still eerily empty or with large gapes in them.
I thought I would have all this free time on my hands, and while we have done several things we normally don't do (watch a few movies, rested more), in some ways I find that I'm just as busy as normal. With cooking every day there's more cleanup, and outdoor chores have started. I have managed to get a few projects done, but nowhere near what I had anticipated. While I will be thankful when things start to slowly reopen, there's a small part of me that has enjoyed having an almost blank calendar.
