Saturday was a back-yard distance visit with friends. A good time just being sort of together and talking and laughing while eating home-made muffins. Yum....and before leaving my friend cut flowers blooming in her garden and sent them home with us. Frangrant sunshine in my kitchen for the weekend.
Sunday morning gave us a social distance walk with our daughter, son-in-law and two grandsons along the lake front....talking and catching up. So good to spend time with all of them.
Then Sunday afternoon we enjoyed another backyard visit with other friends and a game of Farkle. It's easy to play, each with our own dice on our own side of the firepit. Lots of laughter and Fenway even got to come with us to enjoy their backyard off leash!
Tonight, Monday, we will enjoy "Farkle From Afar". We've been playing with our friends who live in New Hampshire for several weeks. Zoom on our computers makes it possible to have a good visit again filled with laughter and conversation.
So, in years to come, when we all look back at this strange 2020 I will remember that there were ways to find time to get together and be with family and friends. Maybe it wasn't perfect, far from it. No hugs, no close contact at all.....but there were connections and I treasured all of them.
COVID-19 be damned.....
