Hello,
As you all know COVID-19’s Is serious and we are washing our hands like we learned in grade school.
Also as most everyone knows to stay home and self quarantine, some of us can’t because we are essential workers, the back bone of this country without a god damn living wage (forgive me a bit off topics)
As a social services worker. I am involved with the safety and welfare of families. I have been put under a different kind of stress then is normal, that leaves me strangely overwhelmed like I’m being crushed but also with pockets of time that isn’t jammed packed with things to do that sort of wastes away and makes me feel worse for not using it correctly.
I’m managing, as this regiment becomes the norm and my State’s CPS works to provide families with timely interventions. I’m caught between a rock and a hard place do I see the family and risk getting myself sick or have phone meetings and risk a child or high-risk person being harmed /abused because I’m not there to see the warning signs or provide a much needed intervention.
I will always pick the child or high-risk person. I am taking a lot of precautions, I wash my hands frequently. I don’t touch anything unless I have to etc. I know the tips.
Back to how it effects Fate & my role playing.
Roleplay has been and always be my outlet for stress and Fate is a second family.
But when I sit down to write a post or just get online I am bombarded with media and information about it that I am again reminded of what risk I am putting myself at or the families I work with. I could be a carrier and I could be making this worse but my job and my life’s work is going into homes and keeping family’s safe. I can’t just stop that.
So I’m sorta taking a break. I’ll be online in discord and I will talk to people & chat plots but all posting is limited to weekends and at that only one time a week. That day most likely being Sunday.
Also the Sunday rule isn’t golden and subject to change. As things mellow out or I mellow out and improve my coping skills I might be able to swing on for a bit. Just know primary days are Sunday until further notice.
What I’m asking: please keep plotting with me, dm is easier because i can’t keep up with the main chats most work days and be forgiving if my replies are late or take awhile. I’m going oldest thread to newest with Sunday replies. Please don’t ask for me to reply sooner, I will get to it when I get to it. However, if you want to send me a list of threads just to make sure I’m not missing any that would be great! NOTE: if I’ve replied to it before I know it’s there & or if we talked about it previously but I haven’t replied.
About my HR rank. I will try my hardest to keep him because I want to see Valiant through to the end but I understand if stuff has to progress, please staff let’s talk about it before changes are made.
thank you for reading this far it truly means a lot and makes me feel better someone read this over and didn’t chalk it up to someone’s stressed ramblings. It means a lot. Thank you, have a good day and I look forward to writing with you in Sunday’s
