Quarantine Day 56

Here we are day 56. Nearly 8 weeks home with the kids and dealing with the new normal of Coronavirus. 
Todd's home now, no more traveling for a while, but he's still going to work every day. Me and the kids have the same routine we have for 8 weeks, I work M-F 8-5 from home they have school TWR and it's sometimes a hard fought battle to get them to do it. Especially Erin. BUT we only have this week and next and then we are done! 5 more days!! I'll be glad when it's over but at the same time when school is over it'll be a vicious cycle of Youtube, Fortnite, Netflix and other screen time for them while I'm working. I do what I gotta do! But hopefully we'll have the pool up soon and the weather will be a little nicer,  its been chilly and rainy quite a bit the last couple of weeks. 
We're still keeping busy with puzzles and some outings to break up the boredom. 


They all still have Google Meets almost every school day. The girls even have dance class. Audrey has a super hard time with dance class. She has focus issues in general but put her in a Zoom class it's virtually impossible to keep her focus. I was so on this front porch for 45 minutes the other night doing every Plie and Dégagé right along with her. 
I've gotten to know Audrey a lot during this time. She NEVER stops from dusk until dawn. She's my wild girl and I love her so much - but maannnnnn, she's busy. 
Last Sunday was Mothers day - it was great. Filled with so many of my favorite drinks, food, things! I even got new stairs for the deck! We're slowly starting to rebuild the deck - and the stairs were the first step. So excited to see it coming together! 


So from what I've heard I have about 3 more weeks at home and then I'll head back to the office for 50% at work and 50% at home. Honestly, I don't see the need for me to ever go back. This has been pretty great. Especially the 45 second commute from my bed to the office :)
