Day 59: Quarantine Chic
On Wednesday, I had another big Zoom call. This time it was the monthly meeting with my board of directors. So I spent the previous afternoon and that morning getting all my notes and things together, getting prepared. This group does like to do a video call, so I got...
Day 58: A Close Shave
On Tuesday, I had a Zoom presentation that I had spent a few weeks planning and several days prepping for. I was a little nervous, but was happy to the updates I made to my presentation, so I was good to go. I figured I should clean and shave my multiple-days stubble...
Day 57: Hollywood Can Wait
Regular readers of this blog may recall that a few weeks ago, I wrote about the fact that I was surprised by the news that a short screenplay I had written made it to the final round of a screenwriting competition I entered. Silver screen, here I come!That was and is...
Day 56: Mother’s Day!

Day 52: You Got Time to Lean, You Got Time to Clean
Wednesdays are generally cleaning day in the Schneider Haus. Particularly with having two kids and a dog all lockdown together 24/7, there is generally no shortage of cleaning to do.We believe it’s really important to get the kids to be involved in cleaning and...
Day 51: Taco Tribulations
Tuesday morning seemed to start off with a family-wide case of the clumsys. Coming downstairs in the morning, one of the kids dropped their water bottles on the hard wood floor, which created enough of a noise to set off the glass shatter sensor in our security...
Day 50: Tiny Cameras and Imaginary Vacations
The day began, as days with kids often do, with something completely oddball and unexpected. The night before, Amelia and Henry were playing with these tiny little toy plastic cameras that I believe came from some kind of goodie bag around Henry's birthday.They...
