A Personal Update

As you know, we were on our Summer Road Trip vacation last week. On Sunday night, before the final leg home, Beatrix came down with symptoms and tested positive for Covid 19. Bethany and I both had recent Covid bouts — hers at the end of May and mine just two weeks before our trip. We also had both recently received booster number two.

I’ve amended the Glacier shot post with a link to the full res version for anyone who wants to use it as a Desktop Picture.

  • Shouldn’t I be feeling better by now?
  • It’s been so long, because I did the right things, maybe I just don’t remember what being sick is like.

Wondering how many pencil nerds even knew about these special edition Blackwings for Indie Book Store Day.

Having a hard time sleeping. So, I sketchnoted what was occupying my mind. Which, for some odd reason, is my wardrobe for this coming fall and winter. I don’t know why my mind works this way or why it was even thinking about this. But here we are.

Here’s the things that we’ll now have to cancel:

  • Our 16th wedding anniversary tomorrow.
  • Our Father’s Day trip to the cabin this weekend.
  • Potentially our summer road trip out west.

Just tested positive for Covid 19. Double vaxed and double boosted.

Will have to cancel so many special plans now.

Very upset.
