I want to do…
Hug my parents
Hug my friends
Have people in my home again
Dance on a sweaty dance floor
Go to the beach
Swim in a pool
Walk through the front doors of TJ
Read to my students in person
Eat lunch with my team
Get my hair cut
Check out hard copy books from the library
Go to a non-virtual happy hour
Not wipe down my groceries
Wander aimlessly around a museum for hours
Go to a movie
…and things I’m thankful for
Amazon Prime and HBO
Grocery workers, farmers, and truck drivers
Virtual happy hours
Audible, Kindle, and library books that don’t become overdue
My ability to fight the urge to cut my own bangs
Our TJMS community
Virtual meetings with my students
Getting paid
Free online workout videos
Zoom
My dog
My bike
Music
My guitar
A fig tree sapling on my porch
A thriving sourdough starter
My health
My family’s health
Time to be thankful
