Honey Delivery

Well, this is a new feeling, isn’t it? With Nick home this last week and no classes every day has felt like Sunday. He’s returning to work tomorrow and I’m feeling a lot of anxiety. Chances are he’ll be back home at the end of the week as most of their jobs are shut down but in the meantime...

Regardless, I am looking to make the most of the situation. Yesterday I made a house call to one of my neighbours, delivering honey and offering my grocery delivery services. I just returned from the doorstep of another neighbour with the same offer; this particular neighbour is already of poor health and I’ve been doing what I can for him for years. He’s a bachelor living alone with severe health problems. Myself, being able bodied, I feel that I need to take responsibility for him. Just the look of relief on his face when I offered made me smile. We can choose to pull together or tear each other apart. I choose the former.
