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

<strong> I am so ticked off right now! My family and I got our Vaccines as quickly as we were able</strong>. We saw it as the beginning of the end of this pandemic. We had been<strong> wearing our masks, religiously</strong>, for a year. We've<strong> kept our hands clean</strong>. So much so that the skin on our hands have been dry and cracked. We<strong> worked from home</strong>, for a year. Our kids have gone to<strong> school via Zoom</strong>, even when they longed to just be normal, with their friends. <strong> We have given up so much!</strong> We have been so careful, and up until now, we have been able to avoid catching Covid. <strong> Now, thanks to the poor choices of others, our state is back to where we were a year ago! We have gone backwards!</strong> Now I'm back to wearing a mask and taking all of the abuse from deniers who have some kind of stupid objection to me keeping myself and my family safe from them! <strong> When I hear about some anti-vaccine person dying from Covid, I'm having a hard time even feeling sad about it. I hate that this is what I've become... but there we are.</strong>
