EVERYONE: PASSING THE TIME

by josetta turner on 04/16/20

I spent my day checking out a day at Virtual Disneyland, without spending any money. Then I visited Universal studio/the walking dead, and horror nights. It was great you are looking at the screen of your laptop, or computer as if you were seated in a car going through the mazes of several attractions. Actually I think it was eight offered.for Disneyland. Or take a walk through the park at Universal. So realistic, ghouls trying to grab you felt real and gave me a chill. I found the sites on You Tube! Hollywood studios are there too. So much fun, so check it out with whoever is there with you or by yourself. I am a horror fan and I also checked out trailers for all the new films coming out or in process,for really scary films. My day went by without worrying or crying about our situation and it felt good for the distraction. Indoor activities are the key to heal while feeling helpless to control our situation. We are in this together so try to adjust and wear your mask while out and keep your distance.This will pass and please don't return to work to soon. Listen to your Governors and health officials. I Love you all, be safe!!

FAMILY FIRST

by josetta turner on 04/14/20

ARE WE CRAZY YET? DON'T KNOW WHAT OR WHO TO BELIEVE? WELL WE ARE SMART FOLKS AND I KNOW YOU KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG AND WHEN YOU HEAR A LOT OF BULL THAT JUST NOT SITTING RIGHT, YOU WOULD CHOSE THE RIGHT DECISION. NOW I BEG OF EACH OF YOU TO FOLLOW THE DOCTOR'S ADVISE. WEAR YOUR MASKS, STAY AT LEAST 3-6 FEET APART. MOSTLY STAY INSIDE. THIS PAST EASTER SUNDAY PEOPLE WENT TO SERVICES ALL RELIGIONS AND THREW THIS VITAL INFORMATION OUT OF THE WINDOW. COME MONDAY MORNING MORE THAN 3000.00 DEAD. THIS DID NOT HAVE TO HAPPEN. I LOVE YOU GUYS AND WOULD HATE TO HEAR SOME OF YOU HAVE DIED FROM THIS VERY SERIOUS VIRUS.

I UNDERSTAND YOU NEED TO WORK AND RIGHT NOW YOUR EMPLOYERS ARE WORKING ON HOW THIS CAN HAPPEN SOON. MEANWHILE YOUR APARTMENT MANAGERS CANNOT EVICT YOU AND YOUR MORTGAGES WILL BE NEGOTIATED. ALL OF YOUR BILLS CAN BE DEFERRED. SO RELAX AND DON'T RUSH THE PROCESS. YOU CAN INFECT OTHERS AND THIS DOES NOT HELP AT ALL.

I HEARD THAT NOW PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT WHO IS PACKAGING YOUR FOOD. IS IT NOW SAFE TO BUY GROCERIES AS USUAL. NOW IT'S UNCLEAR HOW MANY WORKERS AT THE PLANT OR PICKING YOUR VEGGIES OUT IN THE FIELDS HAVE BEEN TESTED. WOW THIS IS MORE PROBLEMS FOR US TO DEAL WITH. WELL LETS GET TESTED THE BEST WE CAN AND THEN WE CAN SEPARATE THOSE THAT ARE CLEAR AND THOSE THAT NEED HELP. IT'S THE ONLY FAIR AND LOGICAL WAY TO GO. OK NOW HOW TO DO THIS. PLEASE START WITH YOU REPRESENTATIVE AND GO FROM THERE. IT WILL BE HARD TO GET THROUGH, BUT KEEP TRYING CAUSE THEY HAVE TO TALK WITH YOU.

MEANWHILE, TOGETHER AS A FAMILY TAKE A WALK THIS EVENING AND PUT YOUR MASKS ON, STAY AWAY FROM OTHERS. I LOOK OUT OF MY PATIO DOOR EACH DAY AND SEE LOTS OF PEOPLE WALKING BY WITH OUT A MASK. I AM NOT GOING OUT AT ALL RIGHT NOW. I CANNOT AFFORD TO WARN OTHERS HERE TO PUT ON THEIR MASKS. I HAVE SHARED WHERE TO BUY THEM IN MY AREA SO PLEASE GET THEM ON. OK, WHEN YOU GET BACK HOME THINK ABOUT THINGS YOU WANTED TO DO BUT DID NOT HAVE THE TIME. GET EVERYONE INVOLVED IN YOUR PROJECT. EACH ONE OF YOU CAN TAKE TURNS PURSUING A PASSION. ORDER YOUR FOOD AND SUPPLIES AS PICK-UP OR DELIVERED. DO NOT GO TO GET FOOD UNLESS THEY HAVE DRIVE THRU AND THAT MAY BE UNSAFE, GIVEN THE DISTANCE FROM REACHING OUT TO GET YOUR ORDER. USE GOOD JUDGEMENT AND COMMON SENSE. LISTEN TO YOUR DOCTORS AND HEALTH OFFICIALS NOT THE PRESIDENT!

LET'S LIVE TOGETHER AND STAY ALIVE.

FAMILIES/ TOGETHER TIME

by josetta turner on 04/04/20

COOKIES AND CUPCAKES, Easy to make together and quick to bake.

It's been hard for some of us to keep up on getting groceries one way or the other. If you have flour,sugar or a sugar substitute, butter, vanilla, brown sugar baking soda, then you have basically what you nee. If you don't have these ingredients, then you can use cake mix, any kind.Only add eggs and oil per instructions on the box. Mix will be thick. Form balls on cookie sheet or sheet of foil, bake as directed on box you do not have to greasepan. You can add to your mix chocolate, nuts, instant oatmeal packet, peanut butter smooth or crunchy. Cupcakes are the same but add to cake mix one cup of water also add to batter if making from scratch. Bake until done, cookies until brown around the edges on bottom.

Something warm and comforting happens to your senses and sharing this process will bring you all together and take your mind off of the sad events of the day. Watch a movie while you all devour those yummy treats.

Before going to bed discuss the things that you are concerned about. Tell each other you will get through this time of uncertainty Stay inside , taking a walk together for a short distance staying clear of other people is OK for now. There is so much misinformation it's unclear to wear a mask or not if you're not infected.Those not affected do not need a mask. Please watch updates on any news channel and follow instructions made by the Doctors not your President. Thanks to all medical employees and public servants helping to saves lives. I pray they stay safe, our heroes. Bless you all, talk tomorrow with more suggestions on how to stay safe.
