One step forward, two steps back

Last year, we miraculously had a Christmas with family and friends. This year, we are back to doing it on the fly again. You could say it's cancelled if you want to look at it pessimistically. Or, you can say we are doing it on 'low flame' if you are looking for a silver lining. Covid continues to find its way into our lives.
 
In those early months of the pandemic, winter of 2020, we hoped it would all be over by spring. I remember reading an article where some specialists said it would likely influence our lives for the next 5-6 years. At that time, I thought this impossible and despaired at such a grave prognosis. Now, I hope they were right and next year, the 5th year, we will have Christmas just as we want.
