Just was told that someone at my 89-year-old mother's small church has tested positive for COVID-19.

9. I hear you

I hope everyone remains healthy and the weeks pass by quickly.

My mother wants to come here in late October to see us- all 3 of her kids live here. Three of her siblings will be in town as well. She thinks it’ll be fabulous to have a little family reunion. Inside. With a meal.

Nope nope nope.

It should be a big nope, especially since one of my sibling’s partner lost one of their parents to COVID last week with another one is not doing well at all. It’s likely that my sibling’s partner will lose both parents and some siblings (they all live far away and have been hit quite hard).

And yet my mother still talks about what the meal should be....
