Last night we met up with friends on FaceTime and it was almost normal

I didn’t think to take a pic of our friends on the screen of the iPad that was propped up on the coffee table in front of us. So here’s a stock pic of friends, haha!
We met up in the early evening. Our family had just finished our stir-fry supper. Theirs was still slow roasting on the grill. We shared drinks and stories. We laughed and we talked about what we’re doing to stay sane. Both of our families have an adult daughter at home. The two of them bonded over how “horrible” it is to be stuck with their parents. We caught up on what was going on with the kids that are sheltering elsewhere. We laughed at each others jokes. We shared fears, and I think by doing so, made them a little more bearable. It wasn’t even an hour, but it meant so much to me to just be as together as we could be.
