Rough couple of weeks

I usually don't post about personal things but past couple of weeks have been really hard for me miscommunications with family members I just feel like I just want to feel better about what happened  but I'm ready to move on and not stressed out because of covid-19 see I was supposed to go to a train ride that's 2 hours away so my one of my family members that set it up told me if I don't go that I should pay out of my own pocket for the ticket and it was around $50 I'm willing to do it but I just feel like she didn't communicate very well and well last night I was thinking deep about it I don't want to get covid-19 or don't Want anyone to catch covid-19 from me so why would I even risk going on the train even though it'll be fun I just don't want to risk it I think in the long run my health is more important than an hour train ride full of fun and Christmas so I will pay the $50 since I didn't go I should have talked to my family member about it two weeks ago but it's too late now so I had to swallow my own Pride on this one guys

Family relations can be challenging at holiday time...add on the virus and that just complicates Every part of any decision to promote health. I think you took the higher road to maintain healthy practice for yourself, your family and others you'd visit and the general public. You were respectful of the 50.00 by honoring the family members request.

Covid has caused a great deal of anxiety for people Jesse..... People are acting in ways that they wouldn't normally act

I wouldn't go.... I don't think it's worth the risk

If you are able to pay the 50 dollars great.... She may have to pay not sure... I would ask her or call yourself and see if your ticket can be cancelled first??.... I don't see why you should pay if she isn't being charged for your seat.... Big hug....xo
