Just Checking In...



I was at the doctor’s office the other day and watched the custodian cleaning extra carefully - obviously due to this coronavirus outbreak here in Ohio - and had to thank him for his extra attention to detail more so during this time than others. When you think about it, your custodial staff are the unsung heroes of your office and you really should stop and thank them once in a while as they pick up all your dumb shit off the floor after you like your mother had to back when you were a child plus all that vacuuming, dusting and now all of the extra sanitizing everything. So stop and just give them a kind word of thanks which will be plenty enough I know because decades ago, I too used to do part-time custodial work back when I was in my late teens. It’s not all about cleaning commodes either as so often everyone thinks because it often involves making things shiny and new looking so when you come into the office it smells nice, the bathrooms smell clean, the break rooms look and smell nice too. So remember your cleaning staff and hell, after this coronavirus crap is over, buy them a pizza and a beer because they have earned it.

How are you and yours dealing with this Covid-19 situation? Where I live we are doing our best by staying in, practicing good hygiene and venturing out only when necessary then using the safety suggestions provided by the CDC & WHO. Beyond that, what else can one do?

Everyone has been asking me how do you deal with this sort of thing spiritually? Talk to your Ancestors to protect you from the Covid-19 threat as much as possible. Be courteous, respectful and ask your ancestors to watch over you and yours to keep all of you healthy, happy and virus free. Offer Them a candle regularly - perhaps Saturdays, Mondays & Wednesdays to ensure you are on Their radar and remind your ancestors you and your family needs protection.
