I worked from home for a year and a half, from March 2020 to July 2021 I spent a lot more time with the chickens and the cat It may have made me a better pet owner because I felt more attuned to their needs This spring my friend gave me 6 new pullets to add to my existing flock of 4 hens I've gotten a lot of enjoyment out of watching them grow and interact Definitely pets helped me get through the pandemic

April 16, 2020. Photo sketch #1: Glasses -- Caption: Covid days. This is a nervous sketch. I sketched this while on an audio webinar with Common Cause NY, as we learned what measures Congress needed to take to give relief to Americans who had lost their jobs because of Covid. Plus, the Trump Regime was withholding medical supplies needed to treat Covid. Forcing states to bid on critical supplies. April 20, 2020. Photo sketch #2: Caption: Chives kept inside until it's warmer outside. Covid days. Again, I was listening to the Pandemic Crisis steps that Congress needed to make. Sketching stuff was a way to cope with the fact that it felt like we were being abandoned. We were being abandoned.
