What Would YOU Have Done?

What would you have done?

If you had known on March 1st that the world was going to change dramatically and that you had one week to do anything that you wanted to do before you went into lockdown – what would you do?

My friend Jane shared this question with me this morning as we were talking about how we longed to see our moms who are both in care centers. I told her it was a great blog post and I expect the answers that I seek from my readers will be varied.

I am sure a great many of you are like me – we just want to spend the time with our loved ones. I have been very fortunate to have been able to live with my best friend through all of this. I have also been able to see my sons and their wives during this time as they have gotten tested repeatedly so that they can visit us safely. I also count myself very fortunate because I did get to see my mom several times in February and even though that trip had a lot of drama associated with it ( travel sometimes does) I persevered and did it.

So if the question was asked and you answered honestly – what would your answer be? Would you spend the time taking one last trip abroad? Would you get your hair and nails done? Would you sit and do nothing, absolutely nothing, for an entire week? Would you redecorate? Would you fill your freezer with baked goodies? I would love to know.

Leave me a comment and fill me in on what you would do if this was the scenario. Thanks for playing along and thanks to Jane for the great prompt today. All comments made on the blog during the month mean a 50 cent donation to Transylvania Christian Ministry – Sharing House. They can definitely use the extra help during this time.

Old Girls in Low Cotton

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
