So Long 2020
What will history say when they tell the story of this year? What will 2021 bring us? As we reach out our arms for the COVID vaccine, will our world go back to the way it was before March 2020? There are some things that happened that we cannot redo...even though they are trying hard in Georgia.
As you read my blog, keep in mind this is my perspective on things. My wife and I decided to play it safe since we are both a bit older and have some health concerns. It was our choice and Zoom is the next best thing to being there. Staying home helped my writing and I got published in a few new places and I have decided to keep publishing my blog even though I am still working on getting a steady audience.
I did reconnect recently with my writing group and it's good to know that things have not changed a great deal. I like the group, because I read some of my writing aloud and this is good practice. It is so good I am now using in it in my creative writing zoom class.
Distance learning is what we got and I know there are many holes in this leaky ship, but it's how the world is right now. I have to admit watching football without a crowd in the stands, is hard to get used to. Baseball became downright scary watching while the stands were empty and let's face it, I am not a Dodger fan. We shall see how the NFL turns out.
I wish you all a happy new year and may 2021 be better than 2020...which did set the bar rather low. Reminder to put on pants if you have any intentions of going to use the restroom during a Zoom meeting.
