How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
This week was the longest whirlwind of my life. There has been so much anticipation towards the election for me that it has left me desperate for change, for unity and for my children. Election Day is among us and while we most likely will not know the results for days, I am here for all of the sleepless nights and long days glued to CNN and NPR.

Would you describe yourself as someone who’s healthy at this point in your life? Why or why not? If this has changed due to the pandemic, talk about what’s changed.
everything is going well right now. My daughter got married, we were able to have the wedding almost completely mask free. I am keeping busy, making plans to retire next year because I am a teacher, I have 32 years of experience and life is too short to keep working forever. Right now I am teaching in a socially distanced class. IT is so weird. Students are on their laptops, teachers are in another remote location and I feel like falling asleep. This is not how teaching is meant to be. I keep looking for the light at the end of Covid. The numbers in New York State have gone down. Stores no longer have a curfew. Everything seems to be moving in the right direction. The sun is shining, flowers have bloomed, I believe we are coming out of this.
