The art of being politically correct has never been my forte! I have always thought that my mouth ran about five minutes ahead of my brain. It’s when you say something and five minutes later you think, “I shouldn’t have said that!” I find I am still that person who continually says the wrong thing. At least one good thing has come from the virus lock-down! When you are in solitary confinement, it is hard to say something you shouldn’t! I have found that my friends and family like me much better when I am not around.
I always imagined myself as Auntie Mame, like from the Broadway Musical, but I never had the flare she did! I thought maybe I would mellow with age, but no such luck and so I write and edit out the mistakes. In writing I can control the plot and make the story come out as I see it happening in my imagination.
Please everyone, take care of yourself! I have a friend who had this virus and is having a hard time bouncing back. The virus is real and it effects everyone differently. Don’t take a chance, and stay healthy!
Happy reading,
Linda
