The weather here is miserable. It is 40 F and raining hard. Going out this morning was the first time I have seen Crash run in forever. He did not like that much rain and came in soaked.
Tonight, for the first time, I am having a few people over for egg nog and cookies. My apartment is so small (and I do love it) that it can only take a few people at a time. Later I may do this again. Being able to do this is a real step forward for me. I used to love having friends in but here I kept thinking it was too small.
There are still people here with covid. I know that over time everyone will get it but most people have a lite dose because of the vaccinations. The hospitals are full because of covid, flu and RSV. RSV was a big problem for us when I worked with six pediatricians. It was really dangerous for infants. Now it has changed and is a problem for those who are at high risk. It is so sad to see the hospitals full again. I hope most people are able to get back home for Christmas.

A long time ago I ended up in the hospital over Christmas and cried a lot missing my family…especially my children.There are still people here with covid.

I hope that everyone will manage to stay well and have a wonderful holiday! Peace, Suzanne

If you can, enjoy those simplest of pleasures. They are usually the ones that stick with you the longest.

I hope you have a lovely evening with friends tonight, as well as a safe holiday season, Suzanne! I’m similarly concerned about covid and other respiratory illnesses going around and know several people currently sick. These are such strange times, but we’ll get through it.
