As my husband James @JoyTripProject prepares for Everest base camp, I don’t know who is more nervous and excited: me or him. It reminds me of when he did a Ted Talk. I recall holding my breath in the audience. Then I exhaled. It all turned out fine.
Had coffee today with one of the translators we hired in Poland, a new friend and bright Ukrainian college student named Angelika. She helped us tell important stories of Ukrainian refugees coming here last week. We started chatting about her aunt, who lives in Russia. 🧵

Help me out! Are masks going to become a regular part of life for you after the pandemic is over? Will they be a staple of cold and flu seasons to come?
If so, I want to talk to you for @WPR! My DMs are open or you can email me at bridgit.bowden[at]wpr[dot]org
@marylee_will @JennyPeek88 Walk like a penguin : ) They say that helps. Of course my body is covered with scars from falls rollerblading, rollerskiing, biking so maybe my advice should be disregarded.....
These are the last of the first-person stories WPR collected about all the ways Wisconsinites' lives have been changed by the pandemic.
I am proud of all the stories we were able to collect and relate, & I hope you also get something out of them.
