Oh, for like 20 years previous to covid I had been doing an event with a children’s charity for one week a year. Made lots of close friends (damn near family!) that all kinda disappeared once I stopped doing it when they decide to ignore covid. Still chat with her from time to time, but not in that way.
Funny story, pretty sure she had covid in november 2019. She got hit really hard for a few weeks by a flu that wasn’t influenza. Wasn’t sure if she was gonna be able to come visit me.
Closer to 2 weeks, but yeah. Don’t wanna go into too much detail for doxxing reasons, but it was a pretty massive undertaking for large groups of children with special needs. So it required lots of organizing the rest of the year and plenty of care and teamwork during the event. Plus, again, almost 20 years with many of the same people. For that little stretch of the year I was probably the best version of myself. Been trying to find another Covid Conscious organization or something to get involved with, but I’m in a pretty Red area and even the folks I know that do Food Not Bombs are on that Back to Normal train. Been thinking maybe maskblocs or something.
