Whether you feel that masking is effective or harmful; adherence to a social contract or governmental overreach; or, a political statement or medical recommendation, masks have been on the frontline of controversy for the past two years. All of that aside, this mask was a good subject for a black and white photo for today.
Three Good Things:
1. Today is National Pizza Day
2. Homemade pizza on the grill for dinner tonight
3. All tax documents delivered to our accountant
A successful day then….a load off your mind when tax returns are in. Yes the mask is a thing of discussion. We don’t need to wear ours now except at hospitals, very closed places such as trains & busses but lots of masks still in use.
@happypat Mecklenburg County (our county) is preparing to lift our mask mandate next week. The number of cases has dropped about 65% from the high point of the recent Omicron surge. It’ll seem odd to leave the house without grabbing a mask for the first time since 2020. 😷
Nicely captured - I have a bit of bad news (based on an AARP article today - the only one I trust) that while numbers are now down, there is an Omicron 2 on its way up in the US. And based on TN numbers, I will always wear a mask in public - ALWAYS.
@linnypinny I’ve been hearing news reports and reading articles about the BA2 variant…1.5X more transmissible. Ugh. I have no problem with wearing masks. I don’t believe I’ve ever gone two years without a single sniffle, cough, or sinus issue before masks became a daily accessory.
Sign of the times indeed. I'm more relaxed now wandering the streets without one on, but certainly do when I go visit the supermarkets for that added protection and because I've noticed alot of folk in my local markets smell bad Ha Ha:)
@thewatersphotos I'm with you, Gary. I've not been without a mask in public spaces for the past two years, and I'm fully prepared to continue as long as necessary.
