Who would have guessed we would be so fortunate as to have a COVID-19 vaccination available less than a year from when the pandemic began? This is the best news I’ve heard in quite a while. More than 100,000 vaccines have already been given in Kansas. And more are being given every day.

This year has been one of challenge and change. Working during a time when we can’t always meet in person has altered the way we work. Wearing masks and socially distancing has changed the way we communicate.

This holiday season will look different for a number of reasons as we are in the midst of a pandemic, but that won’t stop me from celebrating! I hope it won’t stop you either.
