covid wins again

Yup, Covid takes the lead yet again!
My friend and I were scheduled to head to the warmth of Antigua later in January. Given the tremendous amounts of snow and high winds that have occurred here, this was to be a welcome getaway for sure.
But my travel agent has just contacted me to say that flights to Antigua are cancelled. Seems everyone is running around in circles of fear about the Omicron virus and “battening down the hatches” is the order of the day.
What: me bitter? Naw.
(Not much).
Oh well, what’s a fella to do?
​So near... yet so far.
