We're back in the office full time this week, although numbers are still high and no one wears their mask appropriately. Fun, depressing fact: I work for public health. My employer has also made it clear they will offer no flexibility for childcare, even if a child must quarantine, and they don't care about us carrying COVID home to our families. So, I've decided to quit. My last day is Friday. I don't have a new job yet, but I have a few interviews lined up (all remote positions). After this pandemic, I'm not going to waste my time in an organization that doesn't care about my health (while they should!).

We have a sibling in a nursing home in another state. Managing his care from afar is nerve wracking. The inability to travel to see him, and even when there being disallowed from entering the facility is difficult. We have waited for months for a family to be reunited from Europe, which finally happened.
