Do you feel like this sometimes? Photo by Paul Grigonis, pplusgphoto.com
It’s springtime in Chicago–in more ways than one. Not only is the weather warming, but we seem to be getting ready to return to some kinds of in-person life with people outside of our own households. I won’t say that we’re returning to “normal,” but perhaps it will be possible to have a social life again.
I know I’ve been getting a lot more inquiries about wedding planning lately. And I have my first in-person, COVID-safe, tiny wedding coming up in less than two weeks. That will be the first time I’ve planned and managed a wedding in over a year and a half. (Don’t worry: I haven’t forgotten how to do it!)
With the state and the City of Chicago announcing plans for dropping capacity limits by mid-summer, it feels like the end of a very long winter. Of course, I’m from Chicago, and I know that the weather is fickle, so I’m assuming that we’re still going to have one more (metaphorical) ice storm, and the re-opening plan won’t go as smoothly as currently predicted. Also, my personal prediction is that the mask mandate will likely be in place for far longer than anyone currently expects. Even so, it’s nice to contemplate a foreseeable future when we should be able to gather safely in person, celebrate, and have a good time.
