Put Off Today ... Do It Tomorrow

I woke up at 2:30 am this morning with so much on my mind. Yes, I realize many of you are doing the same thing now. Gracious, we all have a lot on our mind ... now.
We have our families, loved ones, friends, pets we are worrying about keeping safe from something we can't see at all. Here, a person has become very sick ... guess what?
He/or she hasn't ever traveled ... they haven't been around anyone ... now, they are sick with this strange virus. This is where it's really scary ... so, where did it come from? The air?
I am watching at the moment a woman speaking on CNN. She is one of 11 children ... 7 people have caught the virus, now ... 4 members of her family has died ... the others in the hospital aren't well at all.
Stop just for one moment ... feel for a second ... the grief, pain in this woman's heart. Maybe I feel it ... is because I've lost my only child, every close family member I ever had ... I feel her pain deeply.
The woman just said last night when her mother died, she was on the phone with the doctor ... oh my ... she heard them when her mother coded, died. That brings a rush of hot tears to my eyes. She couldn't even be with her.
I'm so sorry for what she is going through. Now, other members of her family is fighting to live in the hospital. She's lost 4 of 7 members as of ... now.
I looked back at the screen of my tv ... I see the journalist sitting there shaking his head, tears in his eyes and he's sighing. He feels the pain of others ... I watch him all the time. He cares about people and, I don't know him but, I love him for caring. I love people who care for others ... loved ones, strangers, animals.
Getting back to what I was worrying about. It no longer seems important after watching this. I'm lucky I have the luxury of worrying about going out ... I need to make a wise decision. This lady doesn't have the luxury of worrying ... she is living her nightmare at this very moment. Oh, my Heart feels pain for her at ... this very moment.
Doesn't matter if I know her ... I care very much. I don't have to know someone to ... just care. Do you?
Okay, I'm ready to 'steer my car' onto another 'road' ... and write about a lot of other things. This is how I 'drive my car' ... I go places 

... so do you ... if ... you are reading what I write! I begin writing about one thing ... and sometimes ... go for a crazy ride ... before coming back to finish what I originally began writing.
No ... I don't apologize. This is ME ... Gloria. I'm no longer a 'GrannyGee' but, I can't seem to change the name on my MyLot account ... I think it's permanent, right? So, I am Gloria. That's okay ... I always wished to be Granny Gee ... in my crazy life ... it began that way and when my son died ... that was the end of it.
I don't hold hard feelings at all ... when my son died ... as I coped with the loss of my only child ... I had to begin coping with the loss of his 2 children. That's okay now ... I made peace with it all some time ago. Life goes on ... I can't afford to look back long ... I'm not going to live in that crippling pain anymore.
Now ... do you see if you were on a trip with me ... we would go down all kinds of roads as we traveled? We would see every unusual thing that grabbed my attention ... I would drive up to it to look it over ... decide if I wanted to stay for any time ... if not ... it's time for another story ... keep on driving to find something else. 

Okay ... going grocery shopping isn't the same as the last time we went grocery shopping ... that was weeks ago when 'everything was ... normal'.
Do I put it off today ... or do it tomorrow?

@Janet357 I won't know what I'll do until tomorrow ... I decided to hold off today and listen, monitor the news closely. I keep having the feeling if we are going to get what we need, I need to go ahead and do it.

I decided not to do it today ... something tells me to do it tomorrow or we may be like California being on lockdown. Though they can go to get necessities ... that's scary. Gracious, how our world has changed here.
