In ancient Rome, they marked the new year in March, a time which has always made far more sense to me than a dark, frigid day in January. March is when we get the first breath of spring, when winter’s grasp begins to ease, and we realize that we have survived another miserly winter season.
After a very dark COVID-19 winter surge, I have emerged bleary-eyed into a new year and a new spring. As I am immuno-compromised, I was in an early group for vaccination against the disease here in Ohio (though it was for me, as it’s been for many, a Hunger-Games-esque experience of calling, clicking, signing up at multiple places, calling again, clicking, etc. until I was able to secure both appointments, because, while the vaccines are a scientific miracle, the administration of same was an American mess).
