A year ago this week, my office had just decided it would be prudent to work from home for a little while. A few of us took guesses for how long it would be. I remember one coworker suggesting it could last until the end of May, and thinking he was crazy. No way this would last that long!
But, it did. And then some. This working from home, socially distant, masked up world has been in place for over a year now. And it some ways, it has started to feel normal. In fact, I have no desire yet to eat inside a restaurant or shop in a mall, and frankly if I have to work from home forever, it would not be a bad thing. Maybe indoor togetherness will come back soon, but for now I just feel a lot better keeping my distance and socializing outside. I’m actually mostly content living this way. And I think I will continue to be content until I am ready to have a big party or go on vacation or some other thing that is a bit tricky at the moment. So far, though, it’s all ok.
I got my second dose of the vaccine this week, and I am grateful for science and all of the people who make vaccination possible. That second dose knocked me down with side effects for a couple of days, but it’s so worth it. I hope those of you who are having trouble making appointments have some luck soon! There are Facebook groups out there that are helping (try this one, if you’re in New Jersey), and there are websites like Dr. B that match up about-to-expire supply with people who can be ready at a moment’s notice to show up for a shot. If you haven’t been able to get an appointment, give one of these a try. And good luck!
So, what is This Week in Pictures?
It’s a roundup of the little (and big!) moments I have captured all week. Most of these images are posted on Instagram, but others aren’t posted anywhere but here. Some days there may be no photos, and other days there may be multiples. It’s more laid back than the Project 365s of previous years. You can learn more here 🙂
