covid anxiety syndrome

CAS seems to be an official thing now and my own rendition of it isn't going away just because the media blitz has all but disappeared. this particular model is directed toward the germaphobic end of it, but i am still feeling severe angst over the mandates, inconsistent interpretations of those mandates, etc. are we safe yet?

That is a good way to describe how it seems to be.

Every time I plan something, it pops up-what are the new mandates?

my youngest foster daughter (currently 3) cracked her front teeth in a bathtub fall in january, 2020. at that time, it was not an emergency and her infancy put repair as an out-patient procedure. it wasn't covid, so she has been on hold for two thirds of her life. it is on the verge of being a bonafide emergency.

interpretation of current mandates still in progress. . .

then we get to the public/cultural interpretations. . .

That's so frustrating.

I hope someone is able to help get her dental work done. That's painful.

The govt, cdc, fda, big Pharma have all played us like a yo-yo. Science? I think not. When you see your leaders not complying with their own mandates, then one knows this is not a “deadly” pandemic. The guidelines would have been solid, not changing like your daily underwear. Unless, of course, the virus doesn’t affect them the same way it affects the rest of the world population. Viruses are smart ya know. They know not to attack in a restaurant while you have your mask off eating but do attack when you get up from the table. They also know not to attack the speaker of the house while getting her hair “blown out“ at a local salon that no one else can access. Yep, viruses are smart that way. As long as they are not concerned about the virus while running around maskless and going places we aren’t allowed to go, I’m going to take it from their example that the virus isn’t as “deadly” as they would have us believe.

    I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying.  I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there.  I think that I will start writing in it again.  It's so therapeutic.

    Reality Check

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
