Another Day, More Monotony
My Only Love,
We have survived yet another day. I spent most of the day entertaining our progeny, a piece of my atonement, and re-pigmenting aspects of our progeny's new room. I spent an exhaustive number of hours re-pigmenting a dresser to take it from flamboyant red to sunny yellow. The number of layers of pigment were not as much a concern as the slow passage of time between pigment layers. It took so much more time than anticipated, but after a significant amount of time, I finally achieved something close to success. I imagine this will take another number of days, depending on how long the pigment takes to dry so that I can assess the amount of coverage still needed.
The highlight of my day was the ability to digitally connect for our weekly family meal with our older progeny and your uncle. Despite this horrific confinement, we were able to share our meal as planned, and we allowed our younger progeny to connect with her distant family. It was a small ray of sunshine in this dismal abyss we currently inhabit.
I left our shelter today for the first time in over a week. I drove to my parents house to drop off a small package of items to them. It felt strange to drive after so many day away from civilization, but also somehow freeing. It felt as if I had been granted temporary parole from our current existence, and I had a small taste of what freedom once felt like. I am anxious for the return of that feeling on a more regular cadence. I can only hope that our society complies with regulations so that we are freed from this bondage in a timely manner.
As this day comes to a close, I find myself in need of rest and repose, and I hope to see you again. Perhaps on our journey to the second floor of our abode. Until that time, my love, please know you are forever in my thoughts.
With all my love,
Rebecca S. Berry
