Beautifully written, as always, Melissa. I think we’re all sick of winter! I have to admit, at my age, I’m fine with staying indoors, reading, writing, cooking hearty stews, watching movies. The Olympics was a distraction we all needed, although the way certain politicians chose to treat it was disgusting, especially the VP bringing his own food to Italy (to Italy! Can you imagine?) and that ridiculous caravan of SUVs shipped from the US and blocking traffic on the narrow streets. I was angry at such a waste at taxpayer expense. OTOH, I loved Stanley Tucci’s occasional food tours!
Been trying not to cry all morning, but this one did me in. Adore Anderson Cooper's series. It reminds us that we are human, even in these times —
I wrote this before this morning’s latest news, oof. But, yes, I love the series. It has transformed my ideas about grief.
