I am a lawyer turned preschool teacher to my child at home. This week was the first time I felt like a real teacher. I was excited to do a lesson plan about apples with my four year old. Instead of being depressed about all that she was missing out on, I felt grateful to be able to teach her, to watch her learn, and spend quality time with her. I am able to do things with her that I would not have time to if I was working. If only I could be paid for this work too.

We are going to be in this thing for a really long time because people either are not taking it seriously or not fully understanding it. That, and we have no cure. I am in a really safe, comfortable place with a husband and dog I love. My kids and their spouses are nearby. Everyone is OK. We are good. But we are trapped just like everyone else. Wondering. When will this end? Will this end? Or are we in a dystopian movie where the precursor is not a nuclear war, but just years of loneliness and decay?
