I have a motley stack of books that follow me around my apartment, each representing a different activity that I am engaged in during this time. Their presence is satisfying, reassuring. They keep me company.
When I went to Delaware, it was so strange to put these into a bag and carry them somewhere. I'm used to them being my companions around the house. I miss using bags.
SURVIVAL: My trusty composition notebook quarantine journal, which holds my daily schedule and to do lists. It follows me everywhere.
WRITING: My sparkly gold journal with my daily musings.
COOKING: My 3 ring binder holding my growing quarantine cookbook. And the new cookbook, of course.
CITIZENSHIP WORK: My textbook and notebook for working with the man studying for the citizenship test.
SPANISH: My Spanish notebook and dictionary
WORK: The Norton Anthology of African American Literature
