Had a discussion with my boyfriend,VA, today about how covid has affected us over the past year and I realized that we live in 2 completely opposite worlds. I live in a world where I am an essential worker. I have worked through the entire pandemic treating patients in person and virtually. I have had to deal with the emotional burden of patients losing family members, and wondering every day if I would get the virus and bring it home to VA. He has lived in a world where his company shut down immediately and started working from home. He transitioned teams several months in and have never met his coworkers face to face. His days are lonely but at least our dog keeps him company.

Vaccines are on everyone's mind right now. My parents got their first dose last week. I should be eligible next week based on my breast cancer treatment. My husband won't get his until May (if then) based on what Biden has just said in his national address. Who knows when our 3 and 6 year olds will be protected. COVID numbers are dropping thankfully but people we know are still being affected, still being infected. It's an upside down world as we hit the one-year mark of lockdown
