This pandemic has gone on far too long, but we're still hanging in there. We're still  washing our hands, still wearing our masks, and for the most part, still staying pretty close to home. Sometimes I get a bit antsy, so we take a walk around the neighborhood. But no restaurants, no group activities... yet. We figure that we can hold out until we see some reassurance that things are starting to look up. Our flu shot is scheduled for next week and most likely our booster will be in November. 

And hey, maybe I do know why I'm happy today... 

DH bought Dove bars! Want one?
