I’ll miss you

Dear Diary,
Today is the day.
The apartment is empty, and I’m looking out of the windows, at the view I’ve grown to love for the last 4 years. It feels surreal. This is it. No more sunsets from this view. So many memories. This place was good to me and my daughter. I’ll miss you.
As I’m walking down the hallway to return my keys, I’m flooded with so many thoughts. The virus, new beginnings, new… oh yeah, NEW YEAR… my bday is coming up in 4 days!! It’s a great thing to be excited about, but the truth is, there’s so much going on right now, I don’t really have much time to enjoy it. See, this virus has completely turned into a pandemic, and the world is shutting down. They’re now banning any groups larger than 50 (and 10 in some cases), restaurants are closing, stores are closing, people are losing work… and I think it’s only a matter of time before I’m next. I’m spiraling, and trying to keep it together at the same time. I had no plan, may possibly lose my job, nowhere to go… and it all happened so suddenly.
The good thing about all of this, is that my daughter will be safe and comfortable living with my sister, since she works from home. They’ll be in quarantine together, until I figure this out.

I know that everything will be fine… I just need it to all be fine like, by tomorrow, hahaha.
Closing the door on this chapter, a new door awaits…
