I totally missed Christmas with my husband and kids last year. I was in a medically-induced coma on a ventilator thanks to murderous hospital covid protocols. It is a miracle by the grace of God that I'm here alive with my family this year.

I do, in fact, have one COVID-themed ornament on my tree. It is intended to be very ironic or sarcastic or something. Because last year my Christmas with family was entirely cancelled because a few people with a degree or two is separation from me tested positive or something, my family believed they were doing the right thing for the greater good to just stay away from me.

Not the Christmas I’d planned or expected. I was perfectly healthy the entire time.

COVID definitely did impact my Christmas last year, and in its odd way, did make for the most memorable, entirely alone (for the first time ever) Christmas I’ve ever had.

It turned out to be peaceful and contemplative. That’s not so bad, actually.
