As they stood in line waiting to get in, each person stood 6 feet apart, looking at their phones, or their grocery list.
He heard a noise behind him, and a young woman was bending over, picking up her keys. When she stood up, he wanted to shout from the rooftops, “You look amazing!”
but instead he went for softer touch with, “I love your mask!” It worked. Her eyes smiled as she relaxed. And it was a beautiful mask, white with swirls of green,
black, and just a hint of blue. It was like a work of art really. He didn’t know it, but she had been staring at him, and that’s why she had dropped her keys.
There was something about a guy’s shoulder muscles that always threw her for a loop. They started talking about cooking and food.
She loved the fact that he liked Thai food. They started letting other people go around them and they exchanged names and phone numbers.
As they parted he had forgotten what he needed to shop for and she headed to the nearest restroom so she could take off her mask and breathe again! She also splashed some cold water on her face.
Several days later they were zooming and started really getting to know each other. She was thinking, “Finally a guy who cares about more than just my body….”
And he was thinking, She’s so gorgeous!” And they both looked forward to that day, when they could touch……and actually hold each other.
Today’s sandwich is chicken salad and the cheese is some really spicy, jalapeno and cayenne pepper cheese.
This is milder than I thought, but definitely hotter than pepper jack.
We also ventured out today to an organic farm, and picked up some produce. And the other day we were at an organic dairy farm for meat and dairy products.
A ride in the country is always good! I really don’t have the inspiration for a poem today, life is busy.
And that’s something I wanted to mention. I’m still out there working, and not from home. Sometimes I work alot of hours.
No I’m not a medical professional, but I have to be there. Yes, we take precautions but I’m very concerned
about my wife’s condition and her immune system. The other day I drove her to her appointment for treatment.
I did think of retiring from blogging but you know what? I love writing, it’s who I am!
And I love your posts! So I’m still working out some modifications.
Now back to my sandwich. Wow, this cheese is great! And the wheat bread is fabulous.
