I know every time comes with it's own troubles. I know many other times were much more demanding of it's people's. One thing that has always intrigued me about history was how the people felt at any particular time I might be studying. With this in mind, I hope in some small and insignificant way…
Vaccination
One year ago I had a very different view of covid than I do today. One year ago we had no vaccine, and with the information I had at the time, I decided to go on with my life, rather than cower at home in fear. The race was on for a covid vaccine and…
