Marriage in the Time of Covid

We're a year into Covid and in Vermont we’re almost into the last stretch of winter and I’ve been thinking a lot about married people, or people partnered with other people living in houses and apartments day after night for days and months and now a year. I wonder what goes on in those houses and what they talk about and how they get on day after day, night after night. I found a young couple willing to talk with me about how they’re doing. They live in an old farmhouse in central Vermont that they’re renovating...

(((Note: This is not 'real'. Some people get really mad if they don't know in advance. So here I am to say it's not real. Not ENTIRELY real. I mean there's a lot here that is real. But not all of it.)))
