Honestly we didn’t know what to do. There was grabbing staples as though we’d never leave the house again. There was NOT leaving the house for a long time, and monitoring all the local hospitals and nursing homes and freaking out. Then the vaccine and a long, slow climb back into the world, nervous as cats but trying.

I guess we just keep trying. ❤️
