Me, myself and I normally get along with each other. We agree with one another, like each other and when big decisions arise, we usually compromise. But these aren’t normal times, and with social distancing, our relationship is being tested. I don’t care what the president or governor tell me, I can’t social distance from myself. Myself doesn’t allow me to go to the other room for any alone time. And…….the dialogue is constant. Not one of me will shut up or compromise, it just circles in the head over and over. I get up every single day and begin with a serious discussion over whether to take a bath. This first argument is very difficult because the CDC gives no guidelines for body hygiene, only how to keep our hands germ-free and spotless. After an extended amount of time examining my bath need, it is important for myself to decide when to get dressed and how much, if any, make-up to wear. All this is followed by a constant argument with myself all day long over what kind and amount of food to eat.

Note to self: when having a pity party about being alone, I must remember that my God created brain gives me plenty of company — in fact, it won’t shut up!
