Quarantine Day Two: AKA the longest day
We are all still alive, though there’s some bumps and bruises and the neighbors may soon need ear plugs. Lots of unhappiness here today. And wasted food.
Pretty sure we need an economics lesson. May be making “funny money” soon and forcing the kids to buy their own meals for some forced perspective.
Either that, or I’ll hand them each a can of Boyardee and a spoon and send them to their rooms.
Ben is separated from us and I wish I could trade him places. We might all live a bit longer.
Schools are closed for three weeks, so we have our minimum survival goal. I think we can do it, but it may get touchy…
Natalie made salad dressing today and has been eating salad all day. Caitlin decided to slice a cucumber and then ignore it completely until it was all dried out. Different types 🤷
I’m still trying to stay on the weight watchers wagon, but it may be contributing to my excess stress … Used an emergency injection this morning and lived, so that’s a win.
If random goodies ever show up on our porch, it would be a miracle. My parents are dropping off a load of groceries tomorrow. I feel like they disappeared. They were gone 2.5 weeks and now it will be 2 more at least before I see them again. I may not recognize them… They’ll be old and grey and I’ll be skinny. 🤣🤣
Trying hard to maintain a sense of humor, though the funniest thing is really that my kids think it’s funny to sit on the floor and fart as loud as they can. Yes, I’m sure they’re not boys. Don’t ever let anyone tell you girl farts don’t stink.
We have a large supply of library books on hand, and if I can kick my Facebook-scrolling addiction, we will read them all.
Follow my page the YA Librarian for book reviews.
Looking forward to seeing you all on the flip side of this. I’m thinking we will all need a big party 😉
