It’s not easy dealing with stress during COVID-19. Here’s some of my stressors: When do I go to the grocery? How are my children doing? Another day of bean soup? And, then there’s the news, yikes!!  I found the following on the CDC website. It’s lent, I think I’ll give up checking the news stories every ten minutes (LOL). Have a great day. Stay healthy. Stay strong.
