3rd day of social distancing
The air is cool and still, the birds seem to celebrate that it’s not raining. A fog curtain hangs just beyond the trees. I have the same green snuggie as yesterday.
Yesterday we streamed the church services. And while it wasn’t the same, it did add joy to my heart and felt like worship. In fact it felt nice to bring that worship to our living room for a change.
I like staying put and especially when I homeschooled my older to kids as well I relished the days we didn’t have to go anywhere. I feel like the President has written my excuse note. I do wonder will I get tired of it? I’m sure I’ll miss people and seeing friends. But I have zero angst about having been home since Friday afternoon and looking at not going anywhere for all week.
Today is the first day I’ll be “homeschooling” all 5 kids at the same time. The youngest wasn’t in school when we homeschooled the teens last. But since the burden of assignments and grading aren’t on me for them, I’m kinda looking forward to it.
Homeschoolers often say, the hardest part of homeschooling is never actually being home. (Insert Sheldon Gif “Its funny because its true.”) So maybe that’s why I’m looking forward to this.
