Hello @tmvickery,
That is an interesting observation you have made about the changes you have noticed in yourself. While you do not mention any health problems, sometimes changes in our personality can be related to physical and/or emotional problems.
Have you ever discussed this personality change with your doctor?
@tmvickery, Hi, TM, like you, I'm primarily staying connected through phone and internet.
As time passes during this pandemic I have to keep reminding myself that although my state is wide open, I still need to practice stay home restrictions because neither my health issues nor age have changed...except the age is creeping up to the next yearly celebration. vbg Texas was one of the first to reopen and now is being reported among 6 states with the highest increases in Covid numbers.
Where do you live? Are people observing distancing measures or behaving more like life has returned to the normal before the pandemic?
I haven't seen a post from you for awhile and am wondering how you are doing? Are things opening up more where you live?
With warmer weather and more sunshine, I stay outside taking walks and working in my yard. Are you spending more time with diversions or hobbies than you were before? I stopped all media news for over a week following the riots and found it improved my morale. Only last night did I turn on the local and national news for an update.
Dear TM, would you like to receive a phone call from your senior center?
Our senior center does not call, but I heard about a center that has ‘friendly callers’. They will call you to chat once a week or when you want. They do not visit unless you want them.
