Here we are - all dressed up and nowhere to go... but the studio!

By now, we all know that this year's moSAiQA conference in Toronto will be a virtual event. Lisa and I should be landing in Toronto about now. Instead, we're at our respective homes, diligently practicing social distancing.



Clearly, I'm being facetious. It's early in the social distancing period to go to pieces. And there's a great deal to be thankful for. Most importantly, we're doing the right thing. Also, because the SAQA Board and staff are so incredibly dedicated and are truly at the heart of our community, they're working at warp speed to regroup and bring us all a conference experience. And right now, the reduced fee of $200 to attend is a great deal. If you can't for some reason attend live, I understand that a recording of the sessions will be available until June 30th. Anyone who signs up will have access from now until then.

In the meantime, if you're not one of the people on the frontlines still leaving the house, you know that quality time awaits.

This period of isolation is not forever. Let's create, be grateful for the technology that allows us to connect virtually, and enjoy the little things in life that we overlook when our schedules are full and the pressure is on. Better days are coming.

 We'll get the color back in our lives. Be well, be happy, and wash your hands.
