TBG's doctor shook his hand - Come on, we're both vaccinated - at his routine visit today.
I cancelled my private Pilates sessions for the next two weeks.
Finding trustworthy information regarding exposure and isolation - especially at school or day care - is nigh on impossible.
This does not make it easier to sleep at night.
I'm back to thanking delivery people and having groceries chosen by strangers and placed in my trunk by masked teenagers.
Two friends want to meet - that's not happening for a while.
I have 9 library books on my counter. A week ago I thought that was too many. Now, with so many fewer options enticing me to leave my cocoon, I wonder if that is enough.
Outdoor yoga tomorrow is a problem - how much space is enough space between mats?
How much risk am I willing to take?
Who can I turn to when assessing that risk?
Are we back in the shadows again? Who knows?

ReplyDeleteI don't think we really ever left the shadows. If only more people had paid attention and cooperated at the beginning (such as - wearing masks!) I think we'd be emerging from the shadows by now. We do go out to a few stores but always masked (and NO browsing!), and although we've been in a few restaurants a few times, we're back to ordering for pick up again and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteI know. You are so right - if we had vaxxed everyone after we all wore masks, I'd be hugging my grandkids right now.

Sadly, this is not over. And it probably never will be until everybody is vaccinated, which is doubtful.
ReplyDeleteSadly, indeed. I'm hopeful that there will be (even semi-)effective treatments and a yearly shot - just like the flu.

It continues to be a political issue here in Florida when it should have always been an issue of care and kindness towards self and others.
ReplyDeleteAlways should have been. Politicians caring about reelection more than the people they are elected to serve. Others not seeing themselves as part of the social contract that keeps us safe from polio and smallpox. Too bad there's not a vaccine for willful ignorance.
