A week ago today was the last day of anything remotely normal. I worked, the kids went to school. Baseball practice ended up being cancelled because the schools were ordered to close. We could still find toilet paper in the groceries, and we could still go out to eat. We could still get a haircut, and we could still renew our driver's licenses. None of those are happening now.
In some ways, with something closing each day, the week has flown by. At the same time, that sense of normal feels forever ago. Someone pointed out that we are almost 1/3 of the way into the mandated school closure. Reality is though, that we are not. I think it is very unlikely we will be in school at any point during April.
We are doing lots of cleaning and lots of laundry, along with school work and family board games. We would love to walk, but it is pouring rain an awful lot right now. We WILL get through this, and I'm hoping and praying that humanity will be stronger on the other side.
