Talk about your current living situation. Has anything changed during the pandemic (for example, where you're living, who you're living with, etc.).
This is a piece of the calendar of post-it notes my daughter and I started last March when she came home from college. The first week of quarantine last March, we thought it would be interesting to mark the days of staying home and see if we could make it across the room. We had no idea our swoops of seven flags (representing a week) would go all the way around the room. After 10 weeks, we started stacking the flags. Yesterday, at 55 weeks, we finally reached the last day. I’m so thankful that we’ve had no interruptions to our jobs and housing, but it’s great to be done with all that staying home!

How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
This is the second week back to school. It is incredibly frustrating due to technical problems and miscommunication. Paras in our district we’re led to believe we’d be able to work from home. That turned out not to be the case. We were essentially told if we wanted to get paid we had to be in the school building. Everyone’s on edge. It doesn’t feel right. “Essential” workers should not be put in the position of choosing getting paid over risking their health (and their family’s health.) I feel expendable.
