We made it.
The school year we couldn’t have imagined is ending or ended.
I went on a date with my husband and ate in a restaurant without a mask for the first time in 16 months.
There are still things to worry about (aren’t there always? at least for those of us inclined to worry) but I am letting out a sigh of relief, and starting to look forward again, and feeling, for the first time in months, like I have the bandwidth to write.
But first, other people writing, about other people who made it…
