I think, for us, it’s important to note that our space has changed dramatically. Luckily, our finances have not (except for now with my LOA). We have built and finished the barn, we are moving forward with the pool and ... recently bought a boat. I recognize our wealth, our privilege and our situation as being very fortunate. One thing I do think is important and curious to note is that all of these improvements, purchases and changes all are centered on our family and spending more time together as a family!

I'm turning 60 in a few weeks and want to have a party. I am planning a party. We live in a heavily vaxxed area. It will be outside. But I'm still struggling with the ethical/moral dimension. It feel frivolous to do this while so many people are still getting sick and suffering from the pandemic. On the other hand I want to supply a night of good cheer and fun for my friends. It's been such a hard, shitty, 20 months. Can we not just let our hair down for one night now?
