How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

Today is Saturday, August 21, 2021. One of the worst things about the pandemic has been the <strong> travel restrictions. </strong> Today I'm returning to Connecticut (in a car) 🚗 from Fort Washington, Maryland. On Thursday, I took an Amtrack train 🚉 from Windsor, Connecticut to Washington, DC. <strong> I miss the act of traveling and I miss visiting people. </strong> This summer I was able to visit some people after <strong> more than a year of staying home. </strong> But, my family skipped a trip to Cape Cod, Massachusetts because the pandemic is getting worse again. Also, my Church suspended in person services starting tomorrow. <strong> School starts next week </strong> and one of the vaccines may receive non-emergency approval soon. <strong> I'll be glad when the pandemic is behind us. </strong>
