We are nearing the end of 2020 and for many a relief to welcome in a new year and see the back of this one. The pandemic has dominated most of the year, along with it restrictions and so many deaths. The news channel for me has become unbearable, whilst technology has been a lifeline for keeping in touch with family. This new strain is not what we wanted and seems to be spreading like wildfire, there is no holding it back. But then we have been given HOPE and a lifeline with not one but two vaccines now available. I am hopeful that if we can ride out these next few months, the vaccine will be a great help. We have no real plans for the New Year, taking everything very slowly but it is with a renewed energy that we go into 2021 with HOPE that we will be strengthened by this horrific experience of 2020.
Wishing you and all your family a very happy and peaceful New Year, Jillxx

ReplyDeleteI have read about a different strain of virus is coming as well. We will make it through this again as it's just like another one as per normal. 1st time ever there were tests. Told everywhere, almost as bad as a few years ago. I lived thru it then and now as well. I haven't had a flu shot in a couple years. I pray all goes well for you and Gerard and enjoyed your Christmas together. It's been cold here. Phil is off work today and outdoors working in the area being remodeled ground wise. Happy, healthy and magnificent maskless 2021!!!

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Lorraine! It has arrived for you by now but I still have a few more hours of 2020. I agree with all that you have said and I pray that 2021 will be a much better year for all of us. We're anxiously awaiting the vaccine here although I think it will be quite some time before we get it.
