COVID19 - Week 1 at Home

Monday : 

• First day at home with Clint, Me, Maci and Connor
• Mary (high schooler in the 'hood) came and watched the kiddos from 9a-4p
• The kids did pretty well and Clint and I tried to figure out our new normal

Tuesday : 

• Happy Anniversary Dustin & Tiff!
• Super sad St Paddy's day - I didn't even remember so none of us wore green
• The kids were a little more rowdy for Mary today 
• I started a fun "question of the day" game with our HR team to keep some happy upbeat conversations going in the midst of all of this

Wednesday : 

• Daycare switch - Liz (college girl) now took over and will be our "nanny" until we learn when normal life comes back again 
• The kids are really well behaved for her and have a blast playing games, learning new card tricks etc
• Clint and I ordered them some new games and crafts from online to give her some new options too
• We had doordash bring Chick Fil A which was a fun lunch treat for all 
• No Religion Classes - Cancelled until further notice

Thursday : 

• Another good day with Liz and all of us at home
• Clint did the curbside pick up at Oak Eatery which was another yummy lunch option
• Our new home computer came and now everything moves so much faster!!!
• At night, Tena/Nate/Clint and I played some pool and had a few cocktails

Friday :

• I may have hit my sloppiest attire to date with sweatpants and a fuzzy sweatshirt, I got to get back to doing my hair/makeup/getting "dressed" and feeling normal 
• Kids were good again and we did a fairly lazy lunch today with PB&J
• We paid Liz, I expensed our daycare costs for the week thanks to a work reimbursement program and then paid some bills
• While I did that, Clint ran for a 2nd grocery stock up
• I then ordered us some Chipotle through doordash - thankfully so many options are available through that and we are trying to help keep some of our favs in business
• No more gymnastics until further notice 
• We then had hot tub and cocktails post kid bedtime

Cool New Hat

Saturday : 

• Somewhat lazy day b/c no more soccer until further notice but the internet was causing us issues so Clint worked with Nate to get that fixed
• After it was all fixed, I took a late nap while watching my fav junk tv shows and Maci played with Tyce 
• We doordashed our fav Benihana which was super yummy
• After kids were in bed, we did another hot tub and cocktail night

Sexy Shower Cap for Hot Tub Time 😂 

Sunday : 

• Clint let me sleep in and man did I need it because I didn't wake until 10a which is NOT like me
• We then made some coffee and watched mass together streamed from our parishes website
• We then put away some laundry and did some chores around the house before my Sunday Peloton ride with my pal Nikki (she is virtually doing the same ride from her home)
• Now we are waiting on our Governor to give the latest update before I prep work for the week and enjoy the end of our Sunday 

This is crazy times but I am attempting to find the silver lining.  Examples include, the love I have for my house and family or my appreciation for our kids who are rolling with it better than I thought or just having this time forcing us to slow down and do more hobbies at home (we have some art pictures coming for M and I to do together).  We hope you are also able to find some things to be grateful for during this crazy time.

Lots of Love,

C, K, M & C
