I can accomplish Herculean things if I’m going at high speed. So in the pandemic, when everything screeched to a halt, so did I. At the beginning of Covid-19, I was spinning. I drove over the speed limit to Costco to load up on chicken nuggets and bottled water. I worked with other women in my community on a fund to help underserved families. I made sure my aging parents were secure and had supplies. I had a million checklists.
