After over a year of low COVID rates, the numbers are high here now. We\u2019ve gone to skeleton staff at the Embassy and are holding our breath to see where we go from here. The lights are still on in Consular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had a fun chat with Ann and Pam last weekend, and also a good \u201ccatch-up\u201d call with Carol in Maine (how I\u2019d love to be up there right now!). We also celebrated Father\u2019s Day with a call with Pete and Ginger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve had some lovely torrential rainy days this week (which I love as long as I\u2019m inside!). John and I finished a great season of \u201cUnforgotten.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stay tuned! The next week may be interesting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
