\"\"<\/p>\n

It feels like I’ve spent the past year waiting. \u00a0I’ve waited in the car countless times while one of my cats is at the vet.<\/p>\n

I’ve waited for packages to be delivered and food and grocery deliveries.<\/p>\n

I’ve waited for the doctor to call with test results, hoping for good news and fearing the worst.<\/p>\n

I’ve waited to go urgent care after I fell down the stairs because I wasn’t sure if I could even be seen.<\/p>\n

I waited for the election results to be called and then again for the inauguration.<\/p>\n

Now I’m waiting for warmer weather and my turn to get the vaccine so I can stop waiting to see family and friends.<\/p>\n

I’m waiting for this f#cking pandemic to end, for the freedom to start living a more normal life.<\/p>\n

And right now, on a Tuesday morning before work, I’m waiting for the weekend.<\/p>\n

What are you waiting for?<\/p>\n

Making this photo was a lot of fun. \u00a0It took me back to my theatre days – sourcing props and costumes, \u00a0doing hair and make-up, \u00a0building a set and working with lighting. \u00a0Except this story is captured in a fraction of second (one-sixth of second to be precise) instead of in five acts.<\/p>\n

Since it took so long to get everything set up, I thought I’d have some fun with the set before tearing it all down. \u00a0I think the photograph with the wine and my phone is a more accurate representation of my last year. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

This is the meme from @attorneyproblems that inspired the photograph.<\/p>\n
