COVID
T
his month marks an incredible milestone: one year of collectively enduring the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, our OIPA Board asked our OIP neighbors to share, for posterity, the multitude of unique experiences this unprecedented time has meant to our community. We sought the good, the unexpected, the goofy, the sad; anything that neighbors felt represented this unique time, and as a memory that will endure when you look back on this time.
“ I will cherish the Monday through Friday ‘Family Lunch’ we began last Spring, when my husband, high-schooler, and middle-schooler began working/schooling from home. Our dining room table has never seen so much action.”

We moved to Old Irving about six months before the pandemic hit. Our family was excited for the backyard but never did I think we would have a pool in the summer and an ice rink in the winter! We have also enjoyed all the wildlife, especially the family of rabbits living under our shed. This neighborhood and our new home gave us a sweet slice of outdoors in the big city.
