We wear the mask?


Dear you,

Choose.


The corona days, a daze of information, disinformation, and recommendations versus rules.

Here in the Panhandle, there is still this “kinda” distancing thing happening because beaches are closed, restaurants are providing take-out only, and most pools and parks are shut down.  But we are still mingling in necessary spots like grocery stores, and I worry about those workers.  With them in mind, I decided to don a scarf before shopping Friday:



I looked more like an amateur robber than a caring customer. The silky fabric kept slipping off my nose, so I had to keep touching my face to get that sucker back in place. I probably slathered lots of Stouffer-entrĂ©e-box-virus babies all over my cheeks. The scarf-mask might have helped protect others on the scene . . . if I am an unwitting carrier . . . so it was worth the effort, I guess.  However, since most of the employees and random customers were unmasked, overall, it felt pretty pointless.


They choose.

I choose.

We choose.


For those who choose, I appreciate you and wish you the best of luck as you design the perfect Easter Covid-19 Mask!  You can decorate yours with Peeps or weave one with Easter basket grass.  You can brighten up your tube-sock mask with Easter egg dye or strap a stuffed bunny to your face.


You choose.

I choose.

We choose.


I just wish we had some consistent guidance (or uniform policy) as we make those choices.

Buena Suerte to all!

Love,

Joyce
