I just moved a bunch of my Covid PPE stuff off of my entry/exit area table thing into the hallway closet.
The handkerchiefs I no longer use, same as the cotton and non-latex gloves. The extra filters, the N95s... the box of medical grade masks... all now out of sight.
I also dismantled the "I'm getting mask-acne" bag I put together when I was first starting to seriously wear masks. Not to jinx anything but I guess we (my face and I?) got used to it?
It was an odd moment, because I knew I was making a statement (to myself) of some sort... like the "emergency phase" is... over? My level of precaution can be a little more relaxed than two or so years ago when we had no vaccines and knew nothing at all?
I still have my masks hanging by the door, this, in all honesty may never change or may be another long while before I put them away, I don't know, and I don't find it much of an inconvenience to throw one on in public.
But, yeah, I moved stuff that has been there since 2020. Just... quietly and casually.
(And then I posted about it, heh!)
