#Coronaschool continues to be exhausting but we’re still at it. I wish I had something inspirational to say about it. Just doing the thing, however slowly, is enough right now.

For #EarthDay2020, we spent part of #coronaschool outside picking up roadside trash on our street. Judging by our haul, people in our town really love @FireballWhisky and @SutterHome.

Another day of #coronaschool in the books. We had a terrific thunderstorm in the afternoon. A snuggled me on the couch because the wind made him nervous (the last storm flattened his swing set, so his reaction was understandable). Onward to tomorrow.

Day 14 of #coronaschool: we are definitely falling into a routine here. A’s teacher is holding her video lessons at the same time every day, so we can keep our daily work times pretty consistent. This is a nice change from the chaos that was the first two weeks.

Day 10 and the end of Week 2 of #coronaschool and man, we are limping to the finish line. The novelty is starting to wear off and reality is setting in: this will continue until the end of A’s school year. 2.5 more months of this. And ...
