Blogging and other shenanigans

I had a plan to blog regularly. In part to stimulate my actual writing, but also because the times that we’re in now required recording. It was important, I felt, to record everything from this pandemic as a nurse, and all my thoughts and feelings as a human being. And then my dad died. Loss…
