Day 89-100: Disease, Depression, and Disney

December 28, 2022 through January 8, 2023

Dear Disney,

Shortly after Christmas, and a little before, Darling, the kids, and myself got sick. We all got the flu.

At first, we tried to keep the daily letters going, but it quickly was determined that we were not capable of doing that. Between the fever, the chills, and the general malaise, we missed some daily updates.

Once we missed some daily updates, we began to feel overwhelmed. One missed update made two updates, then three. Till, here we are today: twelve updates late and sitting in mild depression and anxiety.

My plan was to continue to make late updates, but every day the hole was not getting any smaller. Darling said the obvious, “Make an update explaining that we got sick, and we could not make those updates.”

So that is what we are doing. We sincerely apologize for missing those updates, but alas we are not able to.

We will continue to update the letters on a daily basis, assuming our health, physical and mental, are capable.

Till tomorrow.

Sincerely,

Jim Dear and Darling
