September 26, 2020 . . .

Well, here we are, well into the second wave. I was right when I said we have no choice but to open up, but perhaps a bit reckless with some of my choices. With Covid-19 apparently here for the next few months, or maybe even longer, we have to do something – but do something the right way – carefully.
What to do? I think I need to revisit my plan. You know, my plan to personally reopen. Here goes . . .

• Walk outside any day that it’s not raining and is under 28 degrees
• Go to church any day that I can get a ride. (I don’t drive any more)
• Do one lesson each day from ‘Speak Out!’ (This will exercise my throat muscles. In the mean time, I’ve started a six week session of Louder Clearer, on Zoom. Here I think I’ll get a slightly different take on my throat.)
• Follow all recommendations given by the Health leaders, for the duration of Covid-19.  (physical distancing, frequent hand washing, self- quarantine if I’m supposed to, wear a face mask when physical distancing is not possible, etc.)
  
• Continue to do Rock Steady Boxing on Zoom.
• Use the Health Canada Mitigation site, when appropriate.

I think that we’re going through the second wave of Covid, so far, the right way. That is, avoiding a second lockdown, but with new restrictions, where they seem to make sense. Inevitably, time will tell . . .
Please be careful . . .
Stay safe, stay well, get some fresh air if you can, and keep smiling . . .
‘til we meet again . . .
