my mama put hearts on my mask because she loves me

Apr 22, 2020

Mom is attempting to sew masks and I got the prototype. It has little colorful hearts on it and it’s pretty darned cute. I’m sure it has hearts because she loves me.

All that you just read is nothing but fluff. The truth is the woman is trying to kill me. A short walk to the mailbox and I’d likely collapse from lack of oxygen.

What little air that gets through those double layers of baby flannel is hot — within a minute of the trial I thought I was suffocating. I pulled off that mask with little hearts gasping for breath like I’d been sitting on the bottom of a pool for 5-minutes.

I'm all masked up
