It's going to take ages before the vaccines trickle down to me.

But that's okay. I can wait.

One more week and it's midwinter, and then the sun comes back.

Me too, and I’m fine with it. Medical staff and nursing home residents first, then other first responders and essential workers. I can work from home, so no complaints about waiting.

My thoughts exactly. I am more than willing to wait. Worst case scenario? I'll have to buy a new computer.

One more week and it's midwinter, and then the sun comes back.

Thank god. I've bought a sun lamp, and I have an aerogarden that has a timed sun lamp in my kitchen. Plus little fairy lights in the window, and lit up Christmas trees. Winter is not getting me down this year.

"Tailor" to me implies someone who is trained to measure people and design clothing to fit them in a flattering way, not someone who just sews.

I am so looking forward to midwinter.

And then by midsummer, with any luck - vaccines trickle down!
