We lost Tux. That hit me so hard I realized I actually have a heart. As a tribute to him, we welcomed his nephew, Kona, who has brought so much joy and love to our hearts. That was unexpected.
Bike races and bike rides were cancelled. Our Sunday "Coffee and Lies" rides took a five month hiatus. My son Tim and I were able to share the backpack trip of our collective dreams albeit with masks at the ready.
An ideal remote work assignment allowed me not just to continue working, but to spend a majority of my time in my favorite place. So grateful. I ironed two shirts in all of 2020. What the hell?
Such a strange mix of good and bad news. We were lucky, yet are so aware that many were destroyed by the Pandemic. It would be offensive to celebrate. We are powerless to change the pandemic and how the powers that be handle it. We can control how we treat those we see and this event has provided an opportunity to be the best we can be. We could all have done better.
For all the good and bad that we had in 2020, I am ready to move on and welcome 2021. Let's learn our lessons and move forward.
