Day 91 of isolation… but hey hurrah! We are now allowed to have ‘social bubbles’ of up to 10 people. With a stroke of good luck, just in time for Mom’s birthday. So we all descended on Kirsten’s farm, dogs and all. We still kept our distance but didn’t stress about it as much, and we also skipped hugging - that seems too soon. One of us could still have covid and spread it to the family after all.
It was a perfect day: 22C, light breeze, and clouds skitting across the sky keeping us at just the right temperature.
Spike and Adia were reasonably well behaved, although Adia needs to work on her obedience and ability to lie down quietly… I almost left them home but figured that a) I wouldn’t have to worry about getting home in time; and b) the sooner they get used to being at the cousin’s house the better. We’d brought some of our fence panels to set up a little grassy area at the bottom of the deck stairs - it worked rather well.
Last night we had fun with the siblings on a zoom call. Three hours later we ended the call. Gosh time goes by quickly! I’m looking forward to getting together in person this summer.
Headline tonight: Cases spiking in US. 2,161,366 cases with 117,849 deaths in the US. There are a total of 98,787 (97,350 yesterday) cases of Covid-19 in Canada today, with 8,146 (7,994 yesterday) deaths today.

Long after it was heard no more.”
