    going to the gym! I realise I've been too dependent on weightlifting as a way to shake off negative emotions.. time to expand my toolbox!

    Also going to face to face meetings and groups for my mental health. We're replicating many of them on zoom but it isn't the same as actually being with my people.

    Entertainment in general, as it seems to me that the only places that shut down are forms of entertainment. With that comes time with friends/family.

    Having the house to myself again. FINALLY.

    Also, spending time outdoors or in public places with the family again. I kinda miss just going to a movie or going out to eat with them, even though they're here all day every day atm.

    Actually go to Ireland. Put it off for so many years. We were supposed to go for our 10th anniversary but pushed it to 15, and then pushed it to 20, which is this year.

    Had everything booked and was supposed to go at end of April thru mid May. Now we are cancelling flights and rooms.

    Wife said to me yesterday (somewhat jokingly), that if she dies from all this to take the kids with me. ( She is an Assistant Nurse Manager in the Psychiatric Emergency Department at one of local hospitals)

    I think this whole situation is making us realize that we shouldn't 'wait for another time' to do things we want to do. We never know what's going to happen tomorrow. I hope you guys are able to go to Ireland and that your wife stays safe.

    Wear my Easter suit to church

    It's canary yellow and the coat has a butterfly collar. And I don't care what the deacon's wife says - I look good in it.

    1. Get an old fashioned from the seafood joint down near the ocean.
    2. Go to the arcade again.
    3. Camp again with the Cub Scouts.
    4. Have my kid go back to school and hang out with his friends. He's lonely hanging out with us all the time.
    5. Go to a movie as a family again.
    6. Walk the beach without getting death stares.
    7. Window shop in all the dumb stores around here.
    8. Get a kolache from the local shop here.
    9. See my parents in person again.

    I've gotten the evil eye so much lately. I sneezed in public and thought I would be exiled.
