wash your hands – Natalie J. Case

I have a confession to make. I’m a documentary junkie. I like most any kind of documentary; true crime, serial killers, nature, history, biography, science. I can, and do, watch hours upon hours of them.

It used to be what I had on when I was working from home. Since the lockdown started, I have mainlined pretty much anything on Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu and even Disney+.

The problem is, the pickings are getting slim. I’m starting to have to hunt for things I haven’t seen. I’ve even rewatched a few I really enjoyed. Am I learning a lot? Yes, for certain. Am I reaching the end of what I will find watchable? Very possibly.

Have you been watching my Read-Along videos either on my Facebook page or YouTube? Drop a comment if you like.

I’m setting up a virtual happy hour tomorrow (Friday 4/17) at 4pm Pacific, if you’re interested in joining a bunch of random folks to raise a glass of your preferred beverage and chat about whatever comes to mind. I’ll post the info to my author’s page on Facebook once I have the Zoom meeting set up.

I guess that’s it for today. I need to go do today’s photography challenge thing (see my Instagram) and finish uploading videos to YouTube. Be safe out there, Readers! Stay Home! Wash Your Hands! Be Kind (to yourself too)!

I love you all.

I feel like there should be something witty or comforting to say right now, but the world around us is falling to pieces, people can’t work, can’t make money and the bills still come. All around me people who work in stores and salons and theaters are filing unemployment claims to try to scrape by while we shelter in place.

For most of us born after the last world war, this is unprecedented.

It’s an odd thing. As an agoraphobe, this is largely how I live anyway, but now that I have to live this way, I find myself frustrated a little at not being able to just decide to build up my courage and take myself out somewhere…to the park, to eat…whatever.

I probably wouldn’t anyway, but we always want what we can’t have, right?

Shelter in Place…a term we have used mostly as a means to keep people safe during terrifying emergencies like an active shooter, an escaped convict. Who thought we would ever use it to keep people safe from a virus?

Well, if you need something to occupy some of your time, my vampire novel, Forever, is now available in audiobook format and I have some free codes if you’re interested in reviewing it. Just hit me up on my Facebook page.

And with that, dear Readers, I am off to make some more coffee, drink some more water and prepare myself for a day of phone interviews. Stay safe, wash your hands, shelter in place and we’ll get through this thing together.
