Some Of My Recent Wake Up Calls:

The end of last year, 2021 I felt I had many things under control. But that was an illusion until — as they say — “life happens”.

I teach online and one of my jobs closed suddenly. This made me start looking for a replacement. I knew it was coming, so not a big surprise, but it closed earlier than expected.

This Was A Wake Up Call

As carefully as I was to protect myself from the new Omicron variant, through social distancing, wearing a mask and avoiding any social gatherings — I was diagnosed positive the first week of 2022.

No mystery where I got it from, I visit my 98 year old mother in a nursing home several times a week, and they had an outbreak.

Another Wake Up Call

We make informed decisions and take risks. Some of these Have consequences. I would not change anything.

Final Thoughts — Everything Has A Reason

Yes it is hard to stay positive when you don’t feel well, but I knew my body would recover if I gave it enough rest and good food and stayed focused on my healing.

Omicron has changed my life,
