Thinking about the past year

We are coming up on the one-year mark of New York shutting down.

Friday Peter received his first shot of the COVID vaccine. He has his second shot scheduled. There was a serious sigh of relief in this household.

The Vaccine will be available to me on March 1st. This means I will be refreshing the NY vaccine site a lot until I get an appointment. Caroline is looked at May for her shot.

I was looking over my entries for last year on my web log.

A year ago, Caroline was in Miami Ohio for her Robotics competition. This year the contest was cancelled. Caroline is rather upset about this since she worked long and hard on that and this year, she would be a senior so she would be top dog.

We had no idea what was on the horizon.

Since then, our world was turned upside down and sideways.

We wear masks to keep each other safe. Now they are suggesting double masking to avoid the more contagious forms of COVID.

I think I am going to make some more masks to accommodate this.

I am glad that we have a better grasp on what is going on. The chaos this has caused is getting sorted out.

The unknowing was probably hardest for me to cope with.

I am grateful for things that feel normal again.
