After a tiring start to the day on Tuesday, I was happy to wake up well-rested Wednesday morning. Though I did have a strange dream that I had to go back to the office and couldn’t remember my routine and couldn’t find my face mask… and when I did find it, it had extra elastic … Continue reading
Today was good, and then today was bad. It was a mentally draining and exhausting day. I don’t have too many of those, so I often don’t know how to handle it when I do. Please don’t feel bad for me; I didn’t write this to get people’s sympathy or to try and get people … Continue reading
And so another five days went by. It’s hard to believe I am writing this on day 45. How has that much time passed? Sometimes, it seems like it has been much longer and we have always been in this routine. But other times it drags and I wonder how much longer I can cope … Continue reading
Hi! This is my round-up of Tuesday and Wednesday, also known as quarantine days 37 and 38. Day 37 (April 21) Tuesday seemed like the longest and stupidest day in the history of days. I had several instances of realizing it was only Tuesday and wondering how that was possible. I actually think I dislike … Continue reading
These posts started out as a way for me to share my experiences working and parenting from home during the stay-at-home order. Over the last couple of weeks it’s seemed like most of the posts are repetitive from day to day… because the days are repetitive when we have nothing going on. I’m still going … Continue reading

How has it been a month of working from home with the kids? It seems like the normal thing now. It’s weird that I can barely remember what it’s like to drop them off at daycare and actually go into the office. Day 31 (April 15) I don’t know if it’s because I was off … Continue reading
Yesterday was a day off for me (from work… the rest is inescapable) so I didn’t update as usual. It was Rose’s birthday! More about that in a moment. Days 27 and 28 (April 11-12) The weekend was pretty uneventful. We did some lounging around, some playing, and spent some time outside. Ben did a … Continue reading
I’m actually writing this blog post on Day 27. Yesterday was a little tough for me and I didn’t feel like writing at the end of the day. Instead, I had a beer and then some wine and watched The Wire and slept for more than 9 hours and now I feel much more human. … Continue reading
Day 25 seems so much more daunting than day 24 for some reason. Like, we’re almost at 30 days, which is a month. A whole month of staying home and working/parenting. I’m exhausted. Day 25 (April 9) I didn’t sleep well at all last night. We had some pretty intense storms rolling through starting around … Continue reading
