Every other Saturday, I volunteer at a meal for the homeless. Before Covid, our guests came into a large room, we had flowers on the tables, they could get clothing, books, play bingo if they wanted to. We had pumpkins at Halloween to carve. We could sit down and catch up with the regulars and pray with them if they wanted that. It felt good to connect. Now, we are pushing meals to go through an opening covered with plexiglass. We all have masks on. It’s hard to hear and there’s usually a line so no time to chat. I’m grateful we can still provide food but I really miss feeling a connection with the people I’m serving.

I hear you, Catherine. It is so unnatural to put barriers between us when we need each other most.

I miss the tub and London double decker busses. When I first moved to London the only friend I had moved to Hong Kong 3 weeks after I arrived so I learned the city by taking public transportation everywhere without a specific destination in mind. Super nerdy and joyful.

i don't miss public transportation in SF, per se...but i do miss all the being all up and close with my fellow city folk.
