Okay, I’m tired of the pandemic game now … can we play something else for a while?
I’ll tell you, I thought I’d be just fine with ‘social distancing.’ I’m not great with staying up late; social distancing is how I basically spend most Saturday nights.
And as the daughter of a hoarder, I was weeks ahead of most when the penny dropped, and people got into panic buying. Way ahead of you guys! I panic when I can see bare shelf in my pantry; I like to have at least six tins or packages of our favorite foods tucked away ‘just in case.’
I really thought the libraries being closed would be the straw that broke my spirit, but even there, I’m pretty much covered. Books, DVDs, CDs … I’m better than good. On top of that, there are all sorts of…

Welcome back to another of Mom’s Roundtable discussions. This issue I will be joined by members of Mom’s author group, to discuss the growing wave of fiction with positive messages, such as the Hope Punk movement.
