Here we go again?

I had a great week flying to Chicago for work and then flying straight to Portland for the weekend to attend a good friend’s wedding. It was my first time traveling for work and first wedding I attended this year that was a close friend. I caught up with some old friends for the first time in 2+ years.

It felt like everything was normal again.

That feeling was short lived as today San Francisco announced that we are going back to wearing masks indoors again. I know it’s not the end of the world and I will happily wear a mask indoors to help protect others. I understand the need to protect people, but like many others, I am absolutely fed up by this.

The pandemic can and should be over by now. The fact that it isn’t is extremely frustrating. Those that are vaccinated have to pay the price because of the few that are unwilling to do so.

I know this pandemic will end at some point, but it appears that it’s two steps forward, one step back at this point.
