Mid August Updates | A Very Bad Week

Aloha readers!

Last week was rough. 😞 My daughter and I got into a fender bender – we are FINE thank goodness, but my car is not fine. I got rear ended from behind and then my car hit the car in front of me…so my fender and bumper got damaged among other things. My daughter crying freaked me out a lot…but I’m so glad we are okay. I had some tightness all over my body the next day but the next day I felt pretty normal – so I think I’m good. I’m just without a car until the insurance claim goes through and it’s a pandemic…so things are SLOW GOING.

And speaking of pandemic…

Our numbers in Hawaii went from 0 positive cases in the beginning of May…to a daily of 200+ this past week, our highest was 355! A lot of these cases are in the city where my parents, sister (and her fam), and friends live – it’s where I grew up. And my anxiety has been through the roof with the accident but then I had a friend (negative result thank goodness) exposed to someone with COVID and then my own family have been exposed this week also. It’s a stressful waiting game to see if symptoms appear or when they can take the test.

We need another lockdown in out state – people here got too complacent when we had 0 cases. We were so happy, we did a good job staying home then we started opening the state and cases exploded. Also school was pushed back a few weeks but we start this week. I signed my son up for online instruction and I’m glad I did.

It’s a stressful time and I just want to protect my friends and family. Put them in a protective bubble sigh…so no one gets sick. Hopefully we get that stay at home order soon. And I hope that guy’s insurance company calls me back soon saying they ready to cover damages – because I need my car. I don’t go out a lot, but just going to do something normal like buy groceries…KEEPS ME SANE. I only go to the grocery store anyways these days or to buy take out to support local restaurants. πŸ˜’

Please stay safe out there fellow bloggers and readers! Positive vibes to you all.

  1. Omg my anxiety had touched the skies. I sleep 3 hours in the night, filled with nightmares worried for my family. Take care of yourself and your family

    1. Thank you and yes, I feel you! I can sleep because I kind of want to just shut the world off and disappear from all the worries for a moment. But when I’m awake, oh boy…sometimes reading helps, sometimes I have no energy to read. Just have to get through every day! Take care of yourself as well!

  2. Omg Yolanda I’m so sorry you experienced all that trauma. I’m thankful you are safe my friend. But oh… you poor thing. Sending you all my love πŸ’šπŸ’œπŸ’™β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’–πŸ’›
