Random Reflections During a Pandemic: How is it already day 56?

Normally I don't write a ton of reflective pieces about the challenges of the world or in my personal life, but when you're starring out your living room window and tuned into the pandemic updates on CNN and hear your governor giving the world insight on the state of the city of New York on day 56, it's cause for reflection because how on earth did we get to day 56? Seriously, when did that happen?  

Literally, as I type this Mike must have looked up at the clock on the microwave while making fish cakes from his grandma's recipe and say's to me "how on earth is it 2:15 already?"

Anyone else finding that the concept of time is blurred?
