This is the first instalment of our series, Dear Diary: In a Time of COVID-19, written by Margie Holmes. My phone was beside me but I resisted the urge to read the updated reality of the world. No longer do I hear the neighbours on the left opening and closing their front door, heading off to work at exactly 5:45 a.m. Language barriers make conversation difficult but the desire to have a good life in Calgary is one we all share. The whole world is currently on edge, bombarded with information and uncertainty, wondering who will save us.
