I thought I’d have a lot more to say today. This week we were to start receiving more learning materials from the schools, and we were going to try a tag-team approach to the home schooling so I could get more work done. But actually, there doesn’t seem to be much to report. I guess the new becomes normal pretty fast. Here’s our new normal, as of Monday, March 23.

On Friday of our first week of pandemic home schooling, we hit a milestone. My teenager got stressed out about how much work she had to do. I’m simultaneously proud of and uncomfortable with that fact. That’s kind of the mood of the day, as it was both the most and least successful day so far.

Day four of pandemic home school. We’re starting to hear from some of the kids’ teachers, and starting to figure out a few things about time management. A new normal is still a long way off, but I’m starting to get an idea what it will look like.
