Describe an experience this week that made you happy.
Some thing that made me happy this week was the icicles. I love the way the sun glistened through them. I love the whole idea of snow melting and changing from one form to another. How relatively quickly there’s a change in the structure of a flake on the roof, to a drop rolling down an icicle and freezing in a different location. The world is full of miracles too often overlooked because we are so busy. For me that has been the blessing of CoVid (if there is such a thing). I am noticing things that were at the periphery of my comings and goings of a “normal daily life”. Many of these things now take center stage, such the morning sun casting shadows and shining outside my window bring me joy in new ways.

How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
My husband and I have now both had our first dose of the Pfizer vaccine in the last week. Because Canada's supply of vaccine is limited we have taken the unprecedented step of delaying our second doses for 16 weeks. I think that is risky...but we have no say ... so we wont get our second doses till August. I suspect that we could still catch covid waiting for our second shot. What does delaying it do to our immunity .. its like a giant science experiment ... I guess as a country we will know by the fall if its a problem not having our second doses sooner. They made the decision to do everyone with first doses then start on second doses they figured it provides good protection with one dose but do they really know for how long?!
