Daylight Savings Time — Spring Ahead.. Lose an hour of sleep for the greater good of daylight hanging around for a couple hours longer. Feel discombobulated for a day or three. flashback to March 14, 2020: living in NYC you didn’t feel daylight savings. No state of spring laying just around the corner.. suddenly this flu you had was accompanied by nasty side effects that stretch out for weeks.. a state of Paralysis, quarantine, 6-feet social distancing but stay home as much as possible. Isolation. Living in NYC meant confinement by apartment, not office cubicle. Reading the tea leaves from Asia – would there be some sort of Martial Law after March 11 as pandemic was declared?draconian measures in which Army trucks drop pallets of food rations per apartment complex? Before there was mass transit, people would be walking around.. now the park a block away was chained up, grocery stores limited meat products to two per person at first. Bacon was scarce!! BACON!!

Flash forward to March 2021 – Climate change is realized in the mainstream as extreme winter hits Texas- a semblance of normalcy or a light at the end of the tunnel metaphysically with a vaccine slowly to emerge. Science wins! Mass hysteria and commander in chief lies lose!! Hard to describe how it feels to be blessed to have been able to retreat to a new abode in the Catskill woods of Greene County, where despite feeling like a year has been lost, we can only clasp our hands together to achieve more!
