We went on a four-day road trip to visit my granddaughter and her partner in Northern California. We hadn’t seen them since November of 2019. With all four of us vaccinated and boosted (and with the two of them recovered from recent breakthrough cases of Covid) it felt pretty safe, and we had a.delightful weekend together. This sign at the entrance to a shop in Arcata served as a reminder that the pandemic is sti with us, and despite the easing of mask mandates, many businesses are prudently continuing to require them.

Something that has changed in my life in the last few months? Not a lot, actually. I have a new favorite song that I hum at work: "I've No More F***s To Give," by Thomas Benjamin Wild. It makes me smile behind my quadruple-filtered mask. I just wish I could hit the high notes like I used to. My coworkers are probably wondering why I'm squeaking to myself.
