Abby, you KNOW there is SO much in here I love and relate to! (Never use a preposition to end a sentence with!) And I know I don’t even have to list them all! But, I am hoping you three are almost through with the Covid Experience.

(And also I am still wishing I was in that picture!😂) ❤️

Top with splash of cola and a squirt of hand sanitizer. Stir with a rapid test until a pink line appears. Hahaha! Okay, so not funny is you all getting COVID. I hope you all get the rest you need this weekend. Thank you for sharing all the links. I'm your reader!

Ha! I want to post it but can't figure out how to add it to a comment. I don't think I can. I may need to post a separate note and tag you, which now I'm thinking I have to do.

Wishing you well—COVID be gone! I really liked your observation: “He is trying to do better at hearing me, at understanding what I need.” It’s amazing how we can be grateful for the little progress we perceive.

Thank you. Communication can be so fraught these days. It’s something he and I have been working on doing more respectfully and open-mindedly.
