Our book club met Tuesday evening for the first time since February. Because we were practicing social distancing, we met in Patti\u2019s backyard, our chairs each 6 feet apart from the other forming a circle. We brought our own beverages, and arrived and departed wearing our face masks with waves instead of hugs.<\/p>\n

To my mind, this is the best book club I\u2019ve ever belonged to. We meet every two to three months, our meetings last two to three hours, and of that time, we spend perhaps 20-30 minutes discussing the book for that month. The rest of the time is spent in lively discussion about our lives since our last meeting.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been part of this book club for a year and only came to know of it because they were discussing one of my books and invited me. Lucky for me, they later invited me to join as a member, and I\u2019m so grateful.<\/p>\n

Our conversation naturally turned to how we spent our time during the quarantine. And then Corinne, who worked throughout the quarantine because she is a nurse and one of our beloved front-line workers, asked the group: What will you take with you from this quarantine?<\/p>\n
