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.

For the first time in a very long time, felt comfortable.enough to drive out of state and to be honest it was a nice change of scenery. After two years being in the home, the long drive and new faces and seeing the difference and similarities in another state was refreshing. Everyone in Massachusetts seemed much more serious about keeping masks on than what I've seen in CT. The school situation continues to be scary as I have 5 children in 4 different schools and the rise in cases continues to increase. Covid has added so much more stress to our daily lives. Maintaining a positive attitude can sometimes be challenging as so many lives are being negatively affected by this disease.
