We are staying outdoors when we gather with friends, and backyard Friday happy hour is my weekly favorite. Gathering around the fire pit feels reminiscent of summer camp, especially when someone brings out a guitar. Otherwise, this past month has been kind of stressful. So many people we know have recently had Covid, and we’ve been limiting our contacts and indoor activities because everything feels riskier.

I'm beginning to feel a bit more hopeful about the future, which is symbolized by this image called Dawn. The symmetry and perfection of the graphic represents a feeling of cohesion and capability, something we have all lost during the past year. I've been able to complete some projects this week that were impossible to finish because I was distracted and unable to concentrate. A lot of this has happened because I was finally able to find an appointment for a vaccine, which is scheduled for tomorrow at 6:39pm. At the same time that I feel empowered by this, I am also disappointed that this pandemic has turned just about everything into a chore. It will be some time before we are once again able to enjoy our spontaneity together.
