It's hard. Right. I mean the whole community, the state, the whole world is on some sort of 'lock down'.. first time we've experienced something like this. My mother-in-law who is 89 says it reminds her of right before WW2, men were then called to the war.. for most of us, we they are asking us to stay away from people, work from home, do some spring cleaning early..and many of us can't 'sit still'.


For me, I'm still working - I work for a municipality, just as an administrative assistant - but permits need to be processed, calls (complaints) need to be taken. We have to be there (for now).. but trust me, I'm okay with that. I would rather be working than home deciding 'what to do next'.. I'm one of those that 'cant sit still'.. I guess I would be decluttering, or doing laundry (insert eye roll)-like that doesn't get done enough. Maybe I would start my spring cleaning.. anyway, for now I'm working my usual 35 hours a week, away from home.


We have 1-2 sitters that come in for Grace. Apparently she doesn't have school for 3 weeks, and we are down 1 of those weeks. I honestly pray that after the 3 weeks she can go back. I worry about her. She's not usually a 'behavioral' child, but this week she's been pulling hair alot & head butting.. apparently something is bothering her..probably her belly because that's what it always is. (her, me & my mom.. boy right down the pike..we all have belly/constipation issues).


Ten steps forward, 5 back.. I've said it before.. Grace craves routine, but so do I.. so does her Dad.


I think this is a way for the universe to tell people to #slowdown .. I just pray, honestly pray it's over soon!


Hope you're all staying sane.. leave a comment or two.. tell me how YOU are doing!

Feeling powerless.. @3:00 a.m.

I'll start by saying I know that WE were chosen to be Grace's parents; it has made us stronger, and we've learned a lot from her. When she was little, she was in the hospital frequently for infection
