Sunday Five - An Interesting Year



I always enjoy this time of the year, I pause to look back and 2021 has been an interesting year.  Less upheaval that 2020, a little more hope, still not back to what we might hope for.  So a few questions about your year, rest assured there will be more questions about this before the end of the year. 

1: Did you take a vacation this year? 
2: Did you travel for work or business this year? 
3: Have you visited family or friends this year? 
4: Do you feel and safer or better this year? 
5: If you had to repeat it, 2020 or 2021? 

My answers: 
1: Did you take a vacation this year?  Yes, New York and Lake Tahoe
2: Did you travel for work or business this year? Yes, just one trip
3: Have you visited family or friends this year? Hmm, brother in law visited us? 
4: Do you feel and safer or better this year? Yes 
5: If you had to repeat it, 2020 or 2021? 2021 

Please share your answers in the comments.

    1. Yes. Two. P-town in May. Baltimore - DC - NC Beaches in August. All by car.
    2. No work travel, but with my current role, there is little opportunity for that in the first place.
    3. P-town was for friends. I've seen a sister 2-3 times at her house. That's it.
    4. I'm not AS anxious as 2020, but I don't feel safer in terms of the pandemic.
    5. Oddly, 2020. We "seemed" more vigilant with masking and hand-washing. It seems to all have gone to the wayside with vaccines, and the number of Covid cases are just climbing. The 'scare' is off and not enough people seem to care in 2021.

      I don't feel comfortable in a room full of unmasked people

    1: Did you take a vacation this year? Asheville in early Summer, and Oregon in Fall.

    2: Did you travel for work or business this year? I did not.

    3: Have you visited family or friends this year? Dad out in Oregon.

    4: Do you feel and safer or better this year? Better with a sane man in the white house, but still anxious about the virus and such. We just had our booster pricks last week.

    5: If you had to repeat it, 2020 or 2021? 2021, because I feel the tide is changing.

    1. Not a vacation per se, but I did travel to visit my sister for a week in the summer once we were both double vaxxed.
    2. No.
    3. Yes, just here in Edmonton.
    4. Yes, I feel safer because of the vaccines.
    5. 2021 is better because the vaccines make a few more interactions safer.

    5: If you had to repeat it, 2020 or 2021? 2021, but didn't mind all the down time in 2020. It was the biggest and longest relax I've ever had.
