A very different year - 2020
On the last day in 2020, I am sitting in front of my computer and looking back on what a year this has been.....
Year 2020 started out ok, we started to hear the new word COVID, but it seemed to be very far from us. We still went for our "annual" golf trip down South at the end of February. Then after my birthday (early March), we went into the first lockdown after discovering the first COVID case in Ottawa. We started to work from home on March 16 (thought we would be back in the office during the summer months, however we are still working from home). At this time, many people rushed to the grocery stores for toilet paper, flour and other essential supplies. Didn't know it's so important to have sufficient toilet paper at home.
Things got a bit better toward the month of May where golf courses and restaurants were allowed to open. Thanks to mother nature, we were able to put in a record high of 50 rounds of golf this year and the last round was on November 8.
Something might not have turned out too good this year, but the mother nature has been good to us. We were able to dine at the patio on November 6. Even right now on December 31st at around 4pm, we are only at -1 degree. (Christmas Eve and Christmas day were above 0 degree!)
Once the golf season was over, I finally started to go back to my pottery studio. As you can imagine, our guild didn't hold our annual holiday sale. In fact, our guild had to cancel all the events this year. 😞So, right now all I have are greenware (pieces which haven't been fired once yet).
We went into lockdown again on December 26 for 28 days, I should have even more time at home to make pottery pieces, right?
I guess I knew from last year that I would be once again not making pottery my priority, so I didn't make a list. Perhaps I should keep it this way as pottery is still a hobby to me.
Hope year 2021 a much better year than 2020!
