Can I get a do over for this year, or just skip to next year .......

I am so over this year.  Can we just skip to 2021 already.  Or at least I want a do over for this year.  With the Covid-19 taking over our day to day lives and life as we know it is no more.  I don't even see a light at the end of the tunnel either.  

Don't get me wrong where I live we have flattened the curve hell we have eradicated Covid-19.  But all our hard work and doing with out, might be for not.  We have opened our boarder to other Atlantic Providences.  Now for the most part those 4 we have invited to join our bubble have gotten a handle on there cases and have little to no cases.  But with all good things, people go looking for loop holes and before we know it we will have cases again.  Then there is talk to open our boards to the US well don't get me going on that mess, 50 thousand cases a day.  Yikes.  I think not keep the US out till they get a handle on things. 

I want my daughter to go to school next year, do her grade 12 in class and graduate with all the bells and whistles that she has worked so hard all these years.  I know things won't be totally the same as previous years but if we have no new case and we do social distancing then the school year can be achieved.  Yes we have to learn to live with Covid but all this hard work and sacrificing we are doing only to have others from outside our provenience to ruin it just isn't fair.  We have gone without seeing family, gone without socializing, gone without vacations, gone without our normal day to day lives.  We have proven that social distancing does work and to wear masks when we can't but to allow visitors that could potentially bring the virus back to us only to have to go back to lock down when we just opened up isn't fair. 

Now I don't know things might go swimmingly, with minimal to no cases but I am a glass half empty person and I don't see things working out in our favor.
