"Look, Dad! The birds have come!"... I went to see Lars last night around seven...
COVID-19 Diary: Caring for the Birds
COVID-19: Tuppence A Bag
I don't always wake up with a song in my head, but today I did and it was, "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag." And so I got out of bed, got dressed, and went to find Lars and leave some granola bars for him.
COVID-19: Week 2: What do you mean, Why?
...And nobody puked. ...I spent nearly 8 hours alone in our hall bathroom... I read a 500 page book!
It’s an area we call… the Twilight Zone
Gloves on, I push my cart past the security guard, past the bleaching station and toward the sliding doors. The normal whoosh as the doors part before me is the last normal sound I hear.

COVID-19, Spring Break, Days 5, 6 & 7

COVID-19, Spring Break Day 2
I wore one of these masks in my own home today... It's hard, trying to just do the simple stuff while answering all the questions that no one has any real answers for yet... I keep telling the kids, "Live in the day. Tomorrow has enough worry of its own."... I'm thankful she still has a job to go to, but I am concerned she doesn't get burnt out.

Not in a panicky way, no, but my wife was already near-exhausted before this change in her assignment. I do want her to get her rest.
Looking Forward to Jesus
