Last year was very challenging in terms of social distancing and keeping our 1 1/2 year-old son safe. We are very lucky to stay healthy and COVID-free. Hopefully, we will continue to stay safe. Once LA County has reached herd immunity, I look forward to going on a road trip, hiking in state parks, visiting museums, and watching live theater performances again. Mr. Plotnik and I would love to finally show our baby the LA and Santa Barbara Zoos and Long Beach Aquarium because he's only seen wildlife in books. I am also eager to visit a spa and get a good massage. :)

This pic was taken on Christmas. We had a socially distanced dinner with my in-laws in the backyard. ]]> 2021-01-01 23:31:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jomelinebalatayo/ltg8enr6rbm3i3y9/wish/1048432871 shawnjerry https://padlet.com/jomelinebalatayo/ltg8enr6rbm3i3y9/wish/1052454635 First off I'm grateful for things such as my family and a roof over my head but I'm also thankful for my computer that allows to do so many things and for the food on my table.
