I haven’t felt like writing as much lately given everything that is going on right now. It feels like writing about the struggle of staying home with my kids while working is irrelevant given that others are struggling with the inability to do everyday things like go for a walk without the fear of being … Continue reading

Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 66-69
I haven’t posted in a few days, partly because nothing of note has really happened. It’s rained most of the week, and when it hasn’t been raining it’s been cold. Hoping that the nicer weather forecasted for the weekend will actually happen! Days 66-69 (May 19-22) As I already mentioned, we got a LOT of … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 63-65
Hi, friends! I hope everyone had a good weekend and a decent Monday. We had a really nice weekend, thanks to some great weather, and now we are in the midst of about four days straight of rain. Fun! Days 63-65 (May 16-18) We finally had a warm weekend where we could spend the majority … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 61 and 62
It’s the end of another week… week nine, to be exact. It’s really weird to realize that it’s been that many weeks of working/momming from home, especially when we first started I figured it would be 4-6 weeks max. But here we are! Days 61 and 62 (May 14 and 15) On day 61, the … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 59 and 60
Holy cow, it’s been 60 days! It feels like it has been much longer than that, and yet it also seems like the time is passing quickly. Kind of like when you have a baby and the individual days seem so long, yet after what seems like no time at all you have a one … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 56-58
In today’s episode of Cat Signs Up for Weird Virtual Running Challenges, I just registered for the virtual Old Glory Marathon All-American Challenge. What is this, you ask? Why, it’s a challenge where I will run a 5K, 10K, half marathon, and full marathon alone in the fall. Because I am crazy, and because I … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 54 and 55
Another week is over and it’s Mother’s Day weekend! I know I have a real gift waiting because there is a large box in the hallway I’m not allowed to open until Sunday, according to Rose. But she did give me a seed from her apple today and told me it was a Mother’s Day … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 52 and 53
So far, this week has been fairly good. Probably the best thing is that is has gone quite quickly and we are somehow at the end of Wednesday. The weather has not been fantastic but it’s not awful so I guess *meh*? Days 52 and 53 (May 5 and 6) A lot of people celebrated … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Days 48-51
A three-day weekend was exactly what I needed, and so far this week (all one day of it) has been good. I’m writing this at the start of day 52 and it’s still hard to believe it’s been that long. Days 48-50 (May 1-3) Over the weekend, we spent lots of time outside and I … Continue reading
Diary of a Quarantined Mom: Day 47
I’m starting to sound like a broken record, but today was hard. This week was hard. Tomorrow is the start of a new month and there’s no end in sight for our current situation, and that is hard. I’m just exhausted this week: with my kids, with work, with myself, with life. Day 47 (April … Continue reading
