The Rona
When the school made us go virtual I knew a rough road was ahead and when it arrived it was a rapid rollercoaster of emotions. To start this roller coaster was the loneliness and intense boredom of virtual work with an escalating sense of excitement like the start of the proverbial rollercoaster. At the height of the rollercoaster, we started hybrid school, and the constant back and forth between people and home created a sense of longing for the way things used to be. When I eventually escaped the cycle there was a sense of finally escaping and being free to do as you want within your property. Some loneliness penetrated my days and this was broken when I could go out and find and speak to people which brought a geiser of happiness and eagerness to find and talk to others. -

Lockdown 2020
I found the meme relevant because from march to now, the US still is not the same. We are having to adjust to a new "normal." This initial lock down was only suppose to be for 2 weeks, but it kept getting pushed due to people not following the stay at home order. It is now August, and some individuals still refuse to wear a mask to help protect not only themselves, but others. This year is definitely a year I would not come back to if I ever had the opportunity.
