Celebrations
On 9/15/20, we celebrated our two year anniversary of living in Carlsbad. We sold our home in San Jose and bought our present lovely home in Carlsbad two years ago. Time flies when you love where you live!
On 9/13/20, we celebrated one year Gotcha for our Scooby Podenco, Levi. Michelle at SAGE (Save A Galgo Espanol) had a flight patron who brought him to LAX so that we could pick him up and bring him to his forever home. We love our Levi!
Rekindling Relationships
We've had some very special visits with dear family and friends, as well as rekindling relationships with old friends from the past.
My Sister, Mary, and Brother-in-law, Dan, came down from the SF Bay Area to escape the fires and smoke. Then, we had a surprise, as we received a call from my cousin, Scott, and his wife, Shelly. They attended a wedding in NorCal and drove back to Tucson via the California Coast. They stayed one night with us, while Dan and Mary were here, so we had a house full of family. It was great!
The following weekend, our niece from Chicago, Anna, and her friend, Megan, who lives in Pasadena, came to visit us. They stayed one night, and we had such a special quality time visit with them.
On another note, one of my marathon friends, from 2001, Saskia, sent out an email that her address was changing. I wrote her about catching up. We had an almost three hour call to catch up on life. We haven't seen each other for around 13 years, and it was as though no time had passed. We also got to visit with our husbands for a bit. It was very special, and we'll do it again soon.
It was so wonderful to see everyone and catch up!
We are Learning How to Live with Coronavirus and COVID-19
Our San Diego County has done pretty well with the virus and contagion, but there is a good chance that we will have to dial back this week because the numbers are going up again. It is sad, but it is reality, and we have to deal with it. We know what we have to do because we have already been through it. It is no longer the unknown. People can kick and scream and act like angry, bratty children, but we have to do what is right to protect ourselves and others. We have to live with this blasted virus until there is a SAFE vaccine, which could be more likely around Summer 2021.
2020 Ba Bye
Although we have so many blessings to be thankful for, I will be very happy to see the year 2020 end. I am hopeful that 2021 will be a much better year -- a year of healing, in so many ways. God knows that we need it.
I wish you peace, love, good health and happiness, as we continue to endure one of the most difficult years of our lives.
