I’m happy to report in my own personal world, I am pretty much back to old normal, with just a couple of hardliners around me, which I manage by ignoring.
Today, for the first time in over a year, our church allowed family members to sit together instead of apart (for the second week) and, glory hallelujah, NO MASKS REQUIRED TODAY!!! I would have to guess that 97% of the congregation was MASK-FREE!!! It was so good to see my old church family without masks today!! It felt like we had finally made it to the Promised Land after wandering in the desert for 40 years!

Good for all of you and your nickname is so fitting for your comment!

This post came as a bit shocking, and heartbreaking....as our community/state has been mask free....family members, or not....for months. Including, and especially, our churches.
Happy that you and yours are now experiencing ‘normalcy’, again.
How absurd that we even ever put these absurd measures in place, especially for so long :-(
Welcome back!
