Three beautiful things from this past week:

1. If Rudi had to catch COVID, at least it over was a non-race weekend, when he was coaching only 90 minutes away and sleeping at home. So far, we’ve not heard that he’s passed the germs on to anyone else.

2. If I had to catch COVID, at least it was just after doing a supply run and nearly a week out from seeing anyone I would have spent any quantity of time with.

3. If either of us had to catch COVID, at least it was after being vaccinated and boosted and with health insurance and (for me) paid sick days. Our symptoms have been mild and I’ve been able to simply be exhausted and grumpy about being housebound on a beautiful spring week, rather than gasping for breath and fearing for my life. We test again tomorrow and hopefully that will indicate we can leave the house, albeit masked the whole time for another five days.

What’s been beautiful in your world lately?
