My senior year of high school was many, many, many moons ago, but I do remember how distracted I was that last quarter. Knowing something big was coming to a close, feeling spring fever, and the ever present anticipation of something, and somewhere, brand new.
I've been thinking about that time a lot lately, because those feelings are re-emerging for me - to the point of utter distraction. I can't stop thinking about vacations, and far off places, and how wonderful it will be to hug my family again. More friends and family are getting vaccinated, and it feels like a countdown has started. The weather here has been distractingly beautiful. Sadly, I also have the shoppies real bad.
Focus has been, let's say, a challenge. But a wonderful challenge that I'm happy to experience, nonetheless. When I think back to how I felt even a year ago, much less 3 or 4, it's incredible to me the journey we've all been on. Those of us that have survived it have so much to be thankful for.
So that's where I'm at. How about you?
