Standing in a long line waiting to re-fill jugs of bottled water.

13 people are standing in front of me with atleast 2 five Gallon bottles.

I have none.

I’m purchasing 2 bottles for my neighbor.

She regularly cooks for us. 3 of her clients have died due to complications from COVID

This is heart wrenching

I’m overwhelmed by sad news day in and out.

I’m hot and close to suffocating with my mask on.

Only 3 people have gone in within the last 3 minutes

It feels like 20 minutes.

I’m looking to see if the gentleman beside me is glancing at my phone screen while I type this blog

I don’t want his to see that I blog

Perhaps he’ll judge my low word count or countless run on sentences.

Perhaps he is a grammar police

Perhaps he hasn’t even seen me
