Grocery Shopping

I told you I would probably blog more since this whole pandemic started happening. And I am blogging more and whether that's good or bad, I don't know. But I do think it's helping me to write out these things and it'll be a journal for me about what is happening and how I am feeling during this weird time.

So I need to go to the grocery store this weekend and I am not looking forward to it. It's stressing me out.

I didn't love going to the grocery store before this global pandemic started but I didn't mind it. I always had a list and would get what was on my list but I would also wander around the store a bit too just to make sure I didn't forget anything.

But the last time I went to the store since the craziness started, I almost had a panic attack. I had tears in my eyes and my heart started racing and I had to stop and take a few deep breaths and tell myself it was going to be okay.

I went into the store with a list but I felt overwhelmed. I couldn't wander anymore, I had to avoid people as much as possible (which can be hard walking down the aisles), and I couldn't pick up something to look at and then put it back (I just had to know what I wanted before picking it up).

I realize this may be our new normal for awhile but it's hard. We live in a weird time. Stay safe everyone!
