Today marks 45 days in self isolation. We still go for our morning walks. Home school is over, for now, but we still do a little math practice and Latvian. My son has started taking Latvian language classes online. It's going well. After lunch we watch something and on day melts into another. I have it pretty well worked out. I only have to go to the grocery store every 2 weeks with maybe a few stops at the 7-11 for milk.
The school is supposed to start back on May 7th or 15th or ??????. I'm anxious for things to get back to some semblance of normal, but I'm nervous it's happening too soon. I suppose if Thailand doesn't lift the travel bans while the rest of the world, mainly the U.S,, is over run with Covid-19, we should be ok....?
It's a struggle for us financially right now and it's hard to be stuck in the house 24/7. I feel betrayed and out of options. It's hard to reconcile feelings like this when I know others have it much worse.
Things are going to be much different in the future. There will be a new normal and it will take a lot of adjusting. Of course no one really knows what the new normal will be.
As doctors and scientists work on cures and vaccines for this virus, we still don't know what the future holds. Are we trying to get back to normal too soon? Will we see a resurgence of the virus? Will we have to shelter in place to some degree for another year? Or two?
I'm a planner. I love to have a plan and lists, so all this uncertainty is maddening.
For now I'm thankful for my family and a comfy sofa, because we are sitting around A LOT lately.
