What's Next on Your Fun Agenda

Meet Peter. Tending to his Bird-Glade on Cape Cod while coping with the threat of Covid19 complicating his already compromised health. A story of survival skills, family love, and artistry put to the test by this virus and I am happy to say he received an A grade. With the help of Seamus Heaney, a grade rightfully earned. www.patcoakley.com

Meet Babz. Needed to. Meant to. This is how she answered my question about any conflict about being a health care worker in the middle of a pandemic in Boston, Massachusetts. After the interview, I had a strange feeling. I couldn’t recognize it at first. It turned out to be hope.

Meet Bonnie. Relocated to Asheville from St. Croix, COVID19 shutdown hit her at a time in her life that she described as “Life couldn’t be better!” She’s adapted to the isolation because she says she lives in a recluse’s dream: good neighbors, a bountiful garden, a husband, doggies, and were it not for the bombardment of the bizarre that is POTUS and his cult, life would be mostly filled with kindness. www.patcoakley..com

Meet Helen. Married for 54 years and got through the first six months of 2020 and the lockdown and gradual reopening by suggesting that “sometimes you just have to feel fear and then face it.”

Today, meet Carol. Chemo patient for 3 years. Then, a Pandemic arrives and adds isolation but still constant treatments that make her very ill. And, she lives alone. Wowzer. But, she has the single funniest item on her Fun Agenda 2020 that I've ever heard. Let me introduce you to Carol.

“What’s Next on Your Fun Agenda?” is a series of interviews of what 2020 has been like for individuals of all ages and what's next on their Fun Agenda for 2020.

“What’s Next on Your Fun Agenda?” is a series of interviews of what 2020 has been like for individuals of all ages and what's next on their Fun Agenda for 2020.  Me? I'm 75, live in Massachusetts, and my doorbell hasn't rung in 3 months and probably won't until there's a vaccine. My hair has its own zip code and I dress like the Unibomber so I'll be recording interviews until the election Nov 3, 2020 via Skype. If he is reelected, look only for my obit.
