My wishlist for 2022

There’s no doubt that at the top of anyone’s wishlist for 2022 is that covid goes away. If it doesn’t go away, then we’ll settle for it becoming endemic like the flu. What I want most, which likely mirrors the list of others, is to have a life in which we stop wondering about whether we are going to get sick from living a regular life. Or let me put it this way. I want to go back to living without worrying about masks, vaccines, quarantines and CDC guidelines.

For 2022 there are a number of other items I wish for. I want to finally get my trip to Alaska. That’s top on my list. I must do it this year. I also want to fit snuggly back into my burnt orange dress. Further, I want my son to be happy at his new school as he enters high school. That’s actually more important than my dress. I also wish for a mild winter and to become really good at making yummy, interesting cocktails. I should add that I finally want to make it to Iceland and use my plane tickets that went unused this past summer.

At a societal level, I hope for more mental health resources for a highly traumatized society after two years of a pandemic. I hope we can find a way to help people who are at their breaking point. I also hope that items will be easier to secure with less pressure on the supply chain. This includes everything from test kits, to dolls and trampolines.

On a larger personal level, I wish to find and develop a bright new path filled with possibilities. I’m up for a few adventures. Come on 2022, let’s do it!

    I’m not sure I’m happy with the idea of endemic for covid, though. I have avoided getting it so far, and fear it greatly as something I’m not sure I’d survive. Whatever the end state, we need better than the annual flu shot for a model – I take the flu possibility seriously, but always expect I’d survive.

    Instead, I hope the scientists who have delivered what we have already – a pretty amazing feat – learn more about covid (and long-covid), to protect us all even better.
