Day in the life of Covid-19

I saw the sunshine today but was busy keeping warm at work today. 
 The kids were able to play outside, though.  Glad for family able to support us today.

Also proud of John taking the initiative to help out the community the best way he knows how.

Remembering how to breathe

Image
Hi there!  It has been a while. I will take the fact I haven't felt the need to write here the past few years as a good sign.  While we have journeyed through multiple seasons in the past four years, we have found our way somehow.  That is something to be proud of. Now I'm feeling compelled to share my thoughts and experiences again.  There are new challenges, goals, fears, and concerns to discuss.  I am pretty sure there are others out there with similar experiences that need encouragement.  I also know there are those that don't relate, but I want to share my perspective to maybe broaden some views.

Day 1 - Setting the ground rules

The morning was off to an early start with the youngest awake before the earliest of the alarm clocks.   The older two were not far behind, their internal clocks still on the early school schedule.   All eventually clambered downstairs.   The older kids were told that they were responsible for their own breakfasts; thus freeing Dad up from his role of being a short ...

It is scary outside

I sat outside on my porch today to enjoy the sunshine.  We rode our bikes to school to drop off a library book.  I saw my neighbors outside talking with each other.  It was scary. Anyone else starting to fear going outside?  The warm weather coaxes us out of our home after six months of winter.  The sunshine gives a sense of wellbeing.  But it isn't safe.   I go back and forth on how I hope the government will proceed with the Stay at Home order on May 1st.  Summer activities will be helpful for the kids, but I am unsure of the risk.  The economy needs a boost, but will we come back together too soon? The night sky is currently rumbling with thunder, but it doesn't scare me. There are other more dangerous things to worry about.
