The charger for my Fitbit broke. Thinking of just chucking the Fitbit rather than spend any more money on it. I’ve got a pretty good idea how much I burn daily. Tired of Fitbit, MFP. Feel chained to them. Ugh.

Got to shop at JoAnn Fabrics just now. Finally! I could actually feel my stress levels going down. Felt peaceful walking out. #mymentalhealthrequirement

Just finished another round of edits on Knife-bearers and Clans B5: On the Devil’s Playground. Time to format and get all pertinent size information readied to contact my cover artist. #editing #novel #amediting

@janineripper I really do think having news available at all hours has been really bad for us as a society. I find I am happier and less anxiety prone when I limit my news I take to a few minutes a day.

@JeffTeravainen Sometimes a big bag of chips just happens. Forgive yourself and move on.

@carolcoppie Oh my.... These are some gorgeous donuts! I could eat the whole box by myself!

@Oreo I’ve gotta say, those Tiramisu Oreos are fabulous! Well done! #happytummy #deliciouscookies #willbuyagain

Looking into buying a tortilla press. None in stock anywhere, all sold out. Is making your own tortillas the new bread making during this?

No one believed me when I said Illinois would be the very last state to open up. Looking like my prediction will likely come true. Power grab in the works. #thankspritzker #sarcasticthanks #ihatemystate #illinoislockdown #illinoissucks

Illinois. District 2. May the odd be ever in your favor. #openillinois #hungergamescouldberealsoon #ihatemystate

@cyndusen I’ve given up on most online forums I used to enjoy as well as news programs. All anyone wants to discuss is the virus and it’s too much. Can’t take more chatter on it. Doing a lot more sewing, reading novels, etc. instead.

Panic buying of meat has begun here. Cases empty. Glad we didn’t need any meat this time. #annoyed #panicbuying

Right now, my give a damn is completely busted. I can’t even find it. #fedup #quarantinesucks #illinoislockdown #ihatemystate

Had a mini meltdown yesterday. Took a nap, muttered about our misfortune of living in Illinois, cooked lunch, muttered, then yelled and cried a little, sewed a blouse, cooked more and finally started feeling myself again.

[Karen See @KaelSee]

Yes, I’m complaining. No, don’t really care. I’m downstate. I know absolutely no one who is sick. No one. Downstate is a different beast from Chicago. Seriously. Anyway, pretty sure I’m just talking to myself here, but

@_Megan_Tennant Here there isn’t any baking powder, baking soda, dish washing detergent, rubbing alcohol, or cleaning wipes. Flour, tp, and paper towels are hit or miss.
