gotta post and run: i'm working on a habitat for humanity house this morning. it'll be cold...
might replace later. not sure about this.
My life feels so derailed and it's not getting better. I do lots of praying and lots of crying. Been burning so much sage the smell is in my hair.
I said to friends that I feel like I'm at a rodeo I'm not at all familiar with, after really I feel like I'm in a boxing match with the heavy weight champion of the world and I'm getting the shit beat out of me.
I feel like I've aged so much in a matter of days, shaved years off my life and I did everything right. I was adherent to care, never missed a dose of medication, unless I didn't have access to it and this time not having access to it could very well end my life or I'm going to have to deal with other medical things I've never dealt with before and have no history of in my family.
The only thing this has to do with Covid is that everything cannot be focused on it. Especially when millions are already battling other conditions.

I was playing with the Digital Photo Professional software for this pic. It was taken the day before it snowed on Aunt Mary's Farm. I adjusted the contrast just a bit. You can almost feel the snow in the air.

Thanks, Warren Zevon, for suggesting the title:
I want to live alone in the desert
I want to be like Georgia O'Keefe
I want to live on the Upper East Side
And never go down in the street
Splendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid Isolation
Michael Jackson in Disneyland
Don't have to share it with nobody else
Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand
And lead me through the World of Self
Splendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid Isolation
Don't want to wake up with no one beside me
Don't want to take up with nobody new
Don't want nobody coming by without calling first
Don't want nothing to do with you
I'm putting tinfoil up on the windows
Lying down in the dark to dream
I don't want to see their faces
I don't want to hear them scream
Splendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid Isolation
Splendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid Isolation
Cooper was intubated and put in quarantined isolation for nearly a week after suffering his heart failure. It was the most terrifying of times in my entire life.

I created this etching in response to some of my work in my year two project, 'isolation'. As part of my section on location, I set up a photoshoot in the snow featuring a girl in no more than a Charleston style evening dress, barefoot, in the snow. The piece was inspired by my research on Gregory Crewdson who told a snippet of a story in each photo that sparked questions. I created three etchings from my photos and layered them so they were overlapping when printed. This print is A3.
The public phone next to Waitara Station, probably one of the last public phones I see on a regular basis.
Imagine what it was like to farm here in this cold, windy valley. This area had 16 inches of spring snow a couple of days ago, while the other side of the mountains had no snow at all. So, the scattered farmhouses have been abandoned, and many towns in Gem Valley, Idaho have nearly disappeared.
The team from Creative Assembly are taking the series back to its original roots from the 1979 movie by Ripley Scott providing a truly terrifying Alien that is more believable and as intelligent as he is hostile. This is the Alien game you’ve always wanted to play. If you’re a fan of the series in anyway, Alien Isolation is posing to be a hit in late 2014.
Alien Isolation will be available in late 2014 for PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
Isolation bunker with registration desk, medical check-up and torturing cells on the former Dachau Concentration Camp close to the city of München in the south of Germany.
I found an abandoned train down the road from where I used to live. I would have ventured farther in, but the floor was collapsing so I thought I'd play it safe and take a shot in the last train car that I could walk through. This shot ended up being one of my favorite of the bunch of photos taken during that trip.
Repurposed belt conveyors were used as a lining in this cell. The cell was reconstructed based on prisoners' descriptions

While wondering around aimlessly Downtown in search of a story I found myself in an alley. As I approach the other side I start to see a woman sitting down. From my perspective she was tucked away so I made sure to get her at more of an angle. She was really engaged to whatever was happening on her phone because I took many pictures without her noticing. If this were not street photography I would have gotten on my knee and would have placed the background more strategically. However I was on the move so I wanted to take this photo fast. The background really gives this photo more of a story. She is obviously a lady on a smoke break of sorts on her phone. Without the context of the street in the background the viewer would not know that she has tucked herself in this isolated area. With that added feature this photo becomes very visually appealing. I was really happy to come home to see that this photo turned out how I hoped it to.
No matter how often I look at this picture – I cannot figure out the purpose of this isolation chamber that looks like a phone booth without phone – but some strange equipment mounted on the wall… Together with the electric bathtub just across the hall it looks not too “wellness” to me…
95% of the time I'm completely alone. This was daunting enough when I was protecting myself from getting Covid. As a result healthcare is now done over the phone. What happens when you mix a poorly managed and run healthcare system, with a worldwide pandemic and folks are supposed to get quality care through the telephone? What happens when Covid and only Covid become the number 1 priority. What happens when one goes without access to care and treatment for an extended period of time? Well, you get me.
Besides being alone and human contact is very minimal, there's the fact that I'm sick with further isolates me. In turn all of this has taken a huge toll on my overall health and wellness, most importantly my mental health.
We've made everything, absolutely everything, about Covid and have not truly considered the consequence of folks already dealing with pre-existing conditions.
Being alone is when my mind just goes wild. If I'm in any pain from my Sickle Cell things can get bad quickly.
More and more I'm forgetting things like where I am, who I am and who my friends are. My pain crisis last longer and are more frequent.. I've never had anxiety before but it gets so bad I can't control my breathing. I get dizzy and often times I fall.
The stress of being sick and alone is truly getting to me.
