Dear friends, family, and fellow travelers,
This is going to be a short, and hopefully sweet, final newsletter for the year. Hanna and I, like many of you, are running on fumes as the third pandemic winter approaches. We are looking forward to a Thanksgiving week with my parents, who arrived on Saturday fully vaccinated and boosted, and then we are planning to take three or four weeks off during late December and early January in order to hibernate and defrag a bit before embarking on 2022.

In mid-January I'll be back with the latest health/treatment update, thoughts about priorities in 2022, and hopefully lots of cozy photographs!
With care and gratitude,
Anna
