Dear Javairia:

No need to apologize for posting on your thread about having a hard time: I want you to post about hard times (and better times), if it makes you feel a bit better.

I understand your distress about schools being closed- that’s how you got to have a break from being at home/ being around your mother. I am sorry you no longer have this opportunity, and hope that schools will open safely soon!

Here in the U.S, there were almost a quarter of a million of new infections yesterday, and in the last three days there were more than 3 thousand new deaths every day- scary. Where I live- indoor dining is shut down, but outdoors dining/ socializing is happening and it is a great relief for me.

I will soon be away from the computer for a few hours, please feel free to post anytime, at any length and express yourself fully. I will check your thread when I am back.
