We’ve made it to July. This isn’t usually an accomplishment, but in these times it is. Summer isn’t the normal Summer. Trip plans have been canceled. Long weekends (while still very much appreciated) are not the same as they once were. I still lose track of the day of the week. I’m trying to focus on the work. I’m excited about my projects. That’s enough right now.
