It's been awhile since I've contributed here. After getting fully vaccinated in April 2021, I was like: "Welp, this is over for me and my family! Woo Hoo!" And here we are in mid-October. One troubling development in my city (Albany, NY) is the proliferation of anti-mask and anti-vax stickers in parks and near schools. I'm tempted to carry a sharpie pen with me and black them out whenever I see them.

Today I thought about how none of our friends have been inside our house in over a year now. Incredible. Actually, R.L. came in for a short glimpse at Christmas-time, when we were doing the family Zoom call to make macrame ornaments. R. came to the door to drop off toffee, and I asked him to come in and check out our ornament making setup. But that's pretty much it. i found myself wondering today what do my friends' houses look like inside these days? Chaos? Order? the same? transformed by 24/7 living at home?
