Covid-19 Go Away

Covid-19 won't last forever. I keep telling myself that a lot these days. 2020 has given me a sense of gratitude and a sense of grief. We'll call 2020 a 2G year. I'm looking for a 5G year from 2021 and I can do without the grief. This year, I married a wonderful man, continued improvement on my home, and obtained a difficult professional certification in medical coding. I have formed a huge bond with some close friends because we were roommates for several months this year. I also started a new job in September that forces me to learn a lot about law and law enforcement, which is exciting. Those are all things that bring me gratitude. Grief, well, came from the fact that there was no international travel this year. There hasn't been much travel for me at all in 2020. The best trip in 2020 was to the Grand Hotel Marriott Resort in Fairhope, Alabama back in February with my mom and my oldest nephew, Sam Nolan. Sam Nolan and I spent so much time in the indoor pool playing catch with a football on the trip. We had a blast. I came home from the trip and was in bridal planning mode for the rest of the week. That week was one of the happiest of my life. I regret that I didn't take more pictures from that week and post them to this blog. Right now, I don't know how travel is going to go in the upcoming year. I am optimistic that I'll be able to have the vaccine by the end of March. At this point, I am willing to present negative Covid-19 tests if that means I get to travel. Gary and I are talking about taking a domestic trip in April. I'm ready.
