- REM's It's the End of the World as We Know It, has becoming this unwanted earworm that I have been battling with for weeks. The only cure is long-sessions of listening to other music that puts me in a different headspace (stay tuned for that post).
- Without any warning or preparation, teachers in my district have been asked to utilize various platforms to provide "distanced learning" for our students. What has blown up is the long standing issue of the digital divide. I work at a Title 1 school, our students are on the have-nots side of that divide. Many were given Chrome Books, but don't have wifi service at home.
- Plus, I work with grades K-3...my little friends are confused, and their parents are overwhelmed. It sucks.
- I now know two people that have died from COVID-19 related complications.
- My BFF since 1985 is home sick with it, and my play-niece's 46 y.o. uncle is in the hospital for 4 days now, battling this damn virus.
- My sister and nephew are on edge in NYC. Thank god they are both germaphobes and are obsess about avoiding other people's cooties.
- Since March 12, I have been out of the house only 4 times. When I do go out I just feel anxious. Luckily, where I live we are not densely populated.
- I had to put my FWBs on pause. So between not going outside and social distancing (no FWBs), I am vitamin "D" deficient.
- I thought about harm reduction and only bought healthy food for the quarantine. No junk food, because I would have probably ate it all in one day.
- I am curious to see what the world and my world will become when we come out of this plague.
- Stay healthy. Stay safe. Stay home (as much as possible).
