I hear you Lori, this whole new world is depressing. I try not to refer to it as "the pandemic" but rather "the lockdown", the reason being that I believe the lockdowns are overdone. I think when all is said and done we're all going to be exposed to it like it or not, lockdowns or no lockdows. But that's just me. Sorry to hear you are having another bad pain day. The DRG is going to take whatever sweet time it's going to take, but I just feel it's going to work for you. As for being in the "older" category, not much we can do about it so might as well look at the positives. Early "senior" shopping at stores, senior discounts sometimes, absentee ballots if you're over 60, etc. I guess enjoy what's to enjoy about being somebody who has lived through a period of history nobody under 30 knows anything about. I spoke to two girls, both about twenty recently. I asked both of them whether they had ever heard of....I reeled off a bunch of names, like Bette Davis, Paul Newman, Clark Gable, Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart, etc.. Neither of them (one from Ct. one from TN) had heard of ANY of them. Don't know why I was so surprised, kids these days do NOT watch old movies. I'm not sure they even watch new movies. Mostly they are texting and Insta-gramming,or Tindering, or whatever. I don't even know what they are doing. Nor do I want to know actually. OK, I am officially a curmudgeon. Any, best to you Lori, Hank
