One step closer

[cornerofmadness]

to getting done. I have students already working on the exams which is great. What's less great? That the stupid case study was separated from the question on one of them which means you can't answer the question. THanks online software. ANd in spite of the admin saying they'd print it, they'd want me to do it. Wish they had said that before I went to the office today (I'm 'essential' in theory) oh well. I can always return once I get it more ready for printing

I grabbed some seeds from the office as I was looking for my grading software (didn't find that) maybe I'll grow something but it's a bit late to get started.

A lot of people are giving their kids 'plague journals' like in pandemics past. I think it's a neat idea. Mine is right here. No one wants to see my writing trust me on that. Of course others in quarantine have written great works, solved complex math problems etc. I think more of us will be going nuts and posting silliness to tiktok and that's okay too.

Without spoilers, tonight's Prodigal Son was very good. Maybe more when it works through my head but for now let's just say I'm much happier than last week (and Lou Diamond Phillip's wife was interacting with me a little, ha!)

I've been having a hard time getting much done with my partner home 24/7, but today we tried following more of a schedule and it seemed to help a lot. I have clients texting me wanting their dogs groomed and I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet (someone even sent me a link to the NYS page determining vet clinics essential and I'm like ... but I'm not a vet though).

I'm glad the schedule is helping.

Ugh, I feel for you. If you say no, people will hold it against you and/or leave bad yelp reviews and shit. On the other hand, you have to be an asshole to break lockdown to get your damn dog groomed. (here have some Italian mayors yelling at people for stuff like that. I'm dying especially since they didn't translate ALL the things they're saying but I know what much of it is....mostly from grandmothers yelling that stuff at ME growing up https://twitter.com/DanaMEvans13/status/1242107808524439553 )

Good to hear you're hanging in there! *hugs*

It really is! I wish I had the energy to write anything journal-like (or anything decent at that - I'm kind of on a strict alibi sentence diet of sorts), but I'm still inundated with so much things to do for others that i have no spoons left for myself.

Thanks, you too.

Notice my plague journals are all just worked 8 hours, am tired, see you later? That's about all the spoons I have left too. So I hear you. On the other hand, stress does wonders for my creative writing.

Hope things calm a little for you.
