So happy to see you back @katharsisdrill I've been so busy too. Though, I'm trying to make some new things and not pay attention to my own Countries continued lock down. Luckily, though, my state is now one of the very few in my country that is going down rapidly in cases whilst the other states rise. Perhaps it is the good strong salt air and the curmudgeonly New England Spirit borne out of the Old die-hard Puritans, who can say.
USA is banned from most countries now and so with no real possibility to see lovely Europe or England again, one hunkers down and makes the best of what one has.
Congratulations on your daughter and well done you on your daily swims.
Yes, everybody must stay put these days. I did think of you when I saw the little green corner in the North East. The rest was red and orange.
Those swims make me completely exhausted which in turn makes my body and my mind synchronize. Not sure how to find back to a bit more peace of mind - I do have chilis and tomatoes on our balcony, so gardening therapy is activated... Maybe peace is just not happening anywhere right now.
At least it is a joy to see the joy of getting that student cap.
