Katie, thanks for acknowledging our shared anxieties and hardships. I feel uplifted knowing you're all out there going through the same things. To answer your question, at times I feel quite fearful about significant income loss –– like so many others –– but the thing that takes the biggest toll is the underlying burn of not knowing how long this will last. I've been able to find a general sense of peace and optimism, but I do wonder what that will look like after 2-3 months. Or more. And with people still gathering and our leadership indicating we will "reopen" soon, that burn grows into something bigger. And, yes to daily walks. Just yes. Especially if there's sun.
After reading your comment, I took a walk. Thank you for the reminder! (And yes: the uncertainty of not knowing how long this will last is the hardest part for my brain to adapt to, for sure.)
