Every. Word. I like to think I "fought" for my "rights" no matter how small they seem- writing letters to the "powers that be" regarding closing out fitness facilities, making suggestions, getting our "band" back together (ukuleles) much to some protesting and still fearful. I hope I have led my example by never wearing a mask, being yelled at for not wearing a mask early on, and showing up at my mom's 95th birthday party, unmasked, with my unvaccinated daughter two weeks ago to spend time with her. Hey, she's still kicking, much to my sister's chagrin. She really hoped we would "kill G'ma" so she could continue the drama. Being retired I can't push the "no masks on kids" at my workplace, but I can thank moms in the stores for letting me see their kid's smiles. Doing what I can with my small platform.
