Bride-to-be just had to have a bridal shower. One person showed up not wearing a mask.

[Ms. Toad]

29. We've pretty much decided to cancel our in-person open house for the holidays.

This year would be (would have been) our 40th. Between 30 and 50 people show up every year - hanging out in 4 rooms in our house - the main events are making ornaments for our tree, grazing (food), and sitting in little clusters chatting. So masks aren't practical. Friends and family come from a half-dozen different communities, so most of them don't see each other except at our annual party - which makes it both sad, and more dangerous (since it it is multiple new communities of exposure to each other - sort of the anti-pod theory).

So we're trying to figure out how to do a virtual party - or a series of small visits. Not sure yet. But it's sad.

But my inlaws are the same as yours. Ugh.
