Crazy-ness

Just over week ago life was filled with a physical storm.  Then the storm of illness and disruption came.  It is such an odd place to be.  We had plans for a fun Spring Break, which we kept delaying, waiting for local schools to get back to session, since there is this virus going around (in case you haven’t heard—ha 🤣), but they never did.  And the news of the illness became more and more wide spread with requests that people stay home.

One by one our events have been canceled.  No swim, no AHG, no MOPS, no fundraiser breakfast, no Stars & Stripes ceremony, no church, work from home.  Our homeschool just expanded to include grades 13-16.  Our once busy schedule is empty.  I had picked up most of the books we need for the next three weeks of school, so we will have the normalcy of our school schedule.

Our family is largely not at risk; we know these precautions are for the care of others.  There are lots of questions though.  How long?  When will stores have paper goods again?  Should the low risk people have Coronavirus parties (not to be confused with Corona 🍻 parties), then self isolate, to establish herd immunity?  What next?
