One week (and one day) of school down. Virtually of course, but still. It’s been exhausting. Trying to work from home (I’ve been avoiding it as much as possible for my sanity’s sake) and also “teach” the boys. They have structured assignments from the teachers, so that’s a big help. They listen a...

    How is August already almost half way over! It was just March I feel like. I know a lot of it has to do with all this COVID shit, but still. It’s made everything so uncertain. And the control-freak in me is anxious because of it. I’ve gotten a lot better with not being in…

    Ugh. I feel like I’ve already failed at this whole blogging thing. I always want to write, and then it seems like I get distracted and before I know it, it’s been another month between entries. I used to write here all the time, but then they shut down the site. I lost all those…

    Today is the observed day for the fourth of July. I shouldn’t be working, but I haven’t had much luck with trying to today. It’s finally issues with the server and not our internet.

    There is a little progress for the George Floyd case today. The cop who killed him had his charges upgraded to send degree murder, and the other three officers were finally charged as well. This has gone on too long. I am hoping that there will be action called to eliminate Qualified Immunity. Po...

    The protests are continuing. 6th night I think. There is a little hope starting to come in the wake of all of this. In many cities across the nation, there were officers that actually sympathized with the protestors. This is a HUGE step in relations between the black community and police. Another...

    The racism in this country is growing like wildfire. Black people are tired, angry and frustrated with the lack of response to their plight. And I don’t blame them. I’m pissed as hell FOR them. And this is why: I have privilege as a white person because I can do all of these things without…

    It’s been a while since I wrote anything. Every time I try to write, I get side-tracked or I just can’t put into words what I’m feeling. I’m so conflicted about everything right now. This pandemic has turned the world upside down. For everyone. I’m honestly having trouble adjusting and I don’t kn...

    I’m not really sure what made me want to start writing again, but here we are. 2020 has already been a huge whirlwind for the entire world. There’s a world-wide pandemic called COVID-19 and it has infected millions, and killing hundreds of thousands. Schools are closed. John and I are working fro...
