Ron先生のひとり言: The light at the end of the tunnel

We have all been affected by the pandemic one or another. Some more than others. Maybe you work in the restaurant/bar industry. If you have, then you have probably been greatly affected. Or maybe you have been stuck at home the last year and half when you are usually a very outgoing person and feeling a bit down and out because of the lack of social interaction.

This has not been an easy time for us. And personally it's been very frustrating watching my home country of America get back to "normal" while we still struggle and have to deal with the State of Emergency while the government has been slow about getting the vaccines out while still allowing the Olympics to continue further driving the Covid numbers up.

There's not much we can do, and there's not much the complaining will do. So we just have to sit back and wait for this all to blow over. And I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Seems like more and more people are getting access to the vaccine. I am choosing to get the vaccine when it becomes available to me. Hang in there everyone. This is hopefully almost over and we'll all be back to our normal everyday lives doing what we love mask and worry free. And most of all, happy!
