Historic Time

I truly feel like I am living in a historic time. We are quarantined to our homes and more and more people are dying from the virus. I woke up with a sore throat this morning and freaked out because that is sometimes a symptom of the coronavirus. I will update next week if I am still alive!

Earthquake and the Virus Continues

The COVID-19 virus is still alive and well and the U.S. is probably going to remain on lockdown for at least a couple more months. As a history person, I truly feel like I am living in a historic time period. On top of all of that, those of us in Utah woke up to a 5.7 earthquake last Wednesday morning. As someone who has been fearing "the big one" since childhood, I was surprisingly calm. The aftershocks were scary though. That is the last thing we need. I will update on the state of the world next week.

COVID-19

I had no idea that the COVID-19 virus would hit the world so hard. Pretty much all of Utah is shut down. The schools are going to be online only for the next two weeks and the Natural History Museum is closed. I am excited to work from home, but I am still worried. The cases keep going up in Utah. I am fine except for two annoying floaters that appeared in my right eye last week. It probably came from my ICL surgery. What is annoying is that they will NEVER go away, I will just get used to them. But with all the illness going around, I am truly blessed.

Feeling Unspiritual

I have really struggled with feeling spiritual lately. I know I have a testimony of the church, I just have become complacent. I definitely do not want to go back to being inactive like during my teen years. I am going to definitely try to work on improving that this year.

California Trip

My mom and I just got back from California today! We arrived on Thursday and got to spend some great time with the Albanos and Norregards. We had good California food. Poor Hannah had some medical issues on Friday and had to go to the emergency room. She was fine in time for Shauna and Charles' vow renewal on the Queen Mary on Saturday. It was great to celebrate love and family. It ended up being very touching. On Sunday I got to hang out with Jessica and go to the Aquarium of the Pacific. We flew back today. It was so nice to visit family and friends and get away from the day to day!
