Leigha🤗🤗🤗

I'm immunocompromised as well with a bunch of medical issues. I understand freaking out about it. Take care Leigha. Wishing you all the best.

[Melanie]

I'm sorry that you've been feeling like that Leigha, anxiety is a real pig. I've been semi-isolated for 6 weeks with a broken ankle and unable to drive out in the country, but I'm focusing on my gratefulness and the things I am able to do.
I hope your family are supporting you and try to take care of yourself. Sending big (non-contagious) hugs. XO

[Alice]

Non-contagious group hugs for those who like hugs!!!!

Ouch, Melanie! I hope it is feeling better. I like your attitude! I need to try and do that more often, but it can be so hard when you have to fight your mental health demons, along with everything else!

Ty, ugh, it so sucks! I've read a lot of hurtful things people have said about us (the sick and the old) Because of my lungs, I am coughing and feeling all the Covid19 symptoms and my anxiety brings on the flare-ups. Am I sick with Covid19? No, impossible. I've been a hermit, everyone here is being careful. It's just my normal, everyday life, living with lung, heart and other health problems.

I'm sorry you are also compromised. It's scary and I wish others understood how we feel. People are being so flippant about Covid19 saying things like, "don't worry, only the sick and old are at risk. It's just the flu..." etc. Tell that to all the dead and their family, to all the people in quarantine. Also, the sick and old don't deserve to live as long as they possibly can????

Yea, people suck. It's like they don't have any old or sick person they care about. Pretty much everyone does. They just don't think about us.

[Alice]

Yeah and you never know what tomorrow holds. They could get a serious condition and everyone grows old, so...

No more bad thoughts! Here is a little humor, but also important stuff to keep in mind. I changed the lyrics to "We're all in this together" a song some might know from High School Musical. Not all in the same tune, but whatever... :D Hope this is okay here! We're all of an age, where we have probably seen HSM, maybe were once big fans, perhaps? Still a fan? :)

Together, together, together everyone
Together, together, come on, let's have some fun (stick to online)
Together, we're there for each other every time
Together, together come on, let's stay inside

Here and now, it's time for canceled plans
I finally figured out (wash your hands)
That all our dreams are pointless if we don’t wash
That's what it's all about (Lysol everything)

Everyone is special in their own way
We make each other strong (if we isolate)
We're not the same
We're different in a good way
Together's where we belong (stick to FaceTime)

We're all in this together
Once we know, that we are
We're all safe inside
And we see that
We're all in this together
And it shows, when we stand
Just not hand in hand
Our dreams are pointless if we don’t wash

(Everybody now)
Together, together, together everyone
Together, together, come on, let's have some fun (virtually)
Together, we're there for each other every time
Together, together come on, let's stay inside

We're all here (texting)
And speaking out in one voice
We're going to rock the house (but not leave it)
The party's on now (just not literally), everybody watch some Netflix
Come on, stream and download

We're alive because we stayed away
Survivors one and all

We're all in this together (please wash your hands)
Once we know, that we are (that we are)
We're all clean
And we see that
We're all in this together (stay online)
And it shows, when we stand
Just not hand in hand
Our dreams are pointless if we don’t wash

We're all in this together (just stay inside)
When we don’t touch, we can live
Know inside
We can make it
We're all in this together (over FaceTime)
Once we see, there's less chance
That we get sick
And we take it

Humanity, sing along
Yeah, you really should stop going out
Humanity stay in the house
Everybody say it now
Humanity, everywhere
Wash your hands all the time
That's the way we do it
Let's get to it
Time to save the world

We're all in this together (just online)
Once we know, that we are (that we are)
We're all safe inside
And we see that
We're all in this together (from a distance)
And it shows, when we stand
Just not hand in hand
Our dreams are pointless if we don’t wash

We're all in this together
When we don’t touch, we can live
Know inside
We can make it
We're all in this together
Once we see, there's less chance
That we get sick
And we take it

Humanity, everywhere
Wash your hands all the time
That's the way we do it
Let's get to it
Come on, everyone (hide spoiler)]

[Latasha]

I’m so sorry Leigha & Tyler. If I can do anything to help distract you even for a minute, I’ll do to it!

[Tyler]

I actually never saw High School Musical lol. Never was interested.

Distractions are nice. :)

[Latasha]

I haven’t seen it either. But I don’t mind musicals.

[Tyler]

My favorite movie is a musical, Grease. I enjoy musicals.

[Melanie]

I've never seen HSM but I know every word of every Grease song! I particularly loved Sweeney Todd too.

[Latasha]

My favorite musical is either Repo! The Genetic Opera or Hairspray, the new one.

[Kellie]

I haven’t started it yet. 😕

Oh no Leigh I hope you are feeling better. Hugs sent

Sorry to hear about your ankle Melanie! Hope you feel better soon! Hugs sent

[Alice]

I'm sorry guys! I don't think I'm going to finish the book in time because I've been really sick with a sinus infection that has triggered my lung issues. I've been sleeping a lot, and mostly just playing Animal Crossing to help destress.

I have read the book before and I believe I did like it back in the day! I'll try to catch up once things cool down. Reading just isn't on my mind right now.

I hope everyone is well and staying safe. <3

[Tyler]

I'm sorry you're sick Leigha. Just focus on feeling better and relaxing. Take care🤗

[Latasha]

No worries, Leigha! take care of you! Hope you feel better soon.

[Melanie]

Look after yourself Leah xxx

[Kellie]

Sorry to hear you aren’t feeling well Leigha! Feel better soon!

[Latasha]

i was going to start Hide and Shriek today....well, i don't have the book. . gonna see if i can find it.

[Melanie]

Sorry friends, i can't get this one at all here so I'll have to see you next month. Have fun

[Latasha]

i bought Hide and Shriek. Hopefully i will get it back before the end of the month.

[Tyler]

Sorry Melanie.

I have just started it. The mc has a little sister named Baby...
I'm only 3 chapters in. I'll probably read more tomorrow.

[Alice]

I'm going to try to get caught up one of these days, but I am not focusing on reading right now. I'm still alive and my physical sickness from before is a lot better, but this isolation is really messing with my mental health! I'm using puzzles and podcasts as a relaxing, sorta unplugged mental health coping mechanism. (Maybe I'll mix in audiobooks, so I still do some reading, but I'm really enjoying being able to focus on podcasts for once! )

Happy reading!

[Latasha]

I love podcast. What all are you listening to?

You take care of yourself Leigha. And ditto what Tosh said, what podcasts are you listening to? I just discovered The Magnus Archives which I'm really enjoying, it's horror fiction.

[Alice]

Thanks guys! I've been bingeing Crime Junkies. Puzzling for mental health and distraction, plus listening to true crime sure seems like an odd combo, but I'm enjoying that Podcast. Enjoy doesn't feel like the right word, considering what they talk about, but hopefully you know what I mean!

[Tyler]

Take care of yourself leigha🤗

[Latasha]

i need to make a list of my favorite podcast. I'm glad your doing ok Leigha.

[Tyler]

Baby's real name is Barbara, that makes a lot more sense. I'm only 4 chapters in so far but I'm liking it.

I’ve never listened to podcasts. Do you have to pay money for them?

[Kellie]

I will be starting the book shortly.

[Tyler]

I liked it. Didn't love it. I gave it 3 stars.

[Latasha]

No, podcast are free. They might have an “upgraded” version but I’ve never had to pay for any.

[Kellie]

That’s good to know. Thanks Latasha! I think I might have to try one.

[Latasha]

i got Hide and Shriek today. so i'm gonna read it over the weekend. I think it's the weekend..? i never know what day it is any more. the mail ran so i know it's not Sunday.

[Latasha]

if anyone goes to look, i moved the 2020 list to the top and left last year's under it.

[Latasha]

I love chapter 6! The legend of Pete is great fun and I’m glad kids are still contributing to the spookiness of Fear Street.

[Latasha]

Chapter 9-
That has got to be the worse gym class in the history of gym in the entire world EVER!

[Latasha]

Chapter 14-
I like this idea. All these kids gathering in a cemetery for Pete’s birthday. Playing games with him and having a cake for him.

[Latasha]

finished! i loved it, i gave it 4 stars.

[Tyler]

Glad you enjoyed it Latasha :)

[Melanie]

Well done Tosh!

[Kellie]

I can’t seem to get my pick . Is this on kindle?

[Latasha]

Kellie wrote: "I can’t seem to get my pick . Is this on kindle?"

it doesn't look like it. i'm sorry Kellie.

[Kellie]

That’s ok. I’ll have to try and figure something out. I’m actually sorry because it was my pick and not sure if anyone will be able to get it.

[Latasha]

Me & Tyler read it. Melanie can’t get it either.

[Tyler]

I think I got it from thriftbooks.com

[Melanie]

Things are bound to get tricky during the current crises, but it's still nice to chat to ya'll.
