Welcome to August
Still not quite sure how it’s already August but here we are. August is a month that contains no major holidays, no days off work - unless you take your vacation time - and no fun cards to send to people. In short, it’s the longest month of the year.
I’m thankful to have a few days off starting Friday but disappointed I had to cancel my trip to visit my dad and Frannie. The vaccination rate where he lives is way too low and the Delta variant is growing so quickly that it didn’t seem wise to travel. Hopefully I can get out there soon.
It’s been nice doing a few more things recently like meeting friends for outside dining, going to a movie and the spa (fully masked for both of those outings, btw), even taking a walk without a mask (though I did put it on when I approached other people). The bummer about doing anything outside without a mask is that I’m now miserable from my allergies. The mask definitely helps though it doesn’t block all the allergens, that’s for sure. Still, from now until forever, the mask is my best friend. I think I’ll order some more for the fall…
I hope you’re all doing well and staying safe. If you’re not yet vaccinated I implore you to take the step. It’s so important for you and for your community. It’s the only way we will ever get back to some semblance of normalcy.
One final note for today…it is National Ice Cream Sandwich Day and also National Coloring Book Day. Do with that information what you will.
