Day 28: Easter Island
The only thing more fun than Easter is Easter in quarantine isolation! But hey, we made the most of it. The kids were super excited for the Easter egg hunt. Eggs! Precious eggs. Henry enjoyed it so much he asked all afternoon if we could find eggs again tomorrow....
Day 27: Egg-citement
Amelia really loves Easter. Truth be told, neither Erin nor I were ever that enthusiastic about it. But finding eggs and eating candy appeals to our kids, and especially Amelia talks often of her excitement for the day.Even as a kid, Easter wasn’t a holiday that...
Day 26: Hoardak
The fourth Friday in quarantine wasn’t my best day. It was, of course, Good Friday, which having been brought up Catholic, I’ve always found to be a perplexing mark on the calendar.Right off the top, there really isn’t anything “good”...
Day 25: Born to Run
Thursday was another beautiful morning, so I thought I’d take advantage of the weather and get out for a quick run. As I was getting ready, Asta apparently got it in her head that we were going for a walk, so she got super excited...and then crushingly...

Monday! A new week in quarantine begins. Continuing on yesterday’s theme of the kids being down to having fun with dirt, it really does become all about finding amusement and interest in anything you can.Work wise, it was a day I was able to get caught up on...
Day 21: Surreality
I started this blog for a couple of reasons. The main one was to chronicle this bizarre time we’re living through for myself and the kids. Memory is a funny thing, and mine has always been wonky. For example, I can regularly recall the full jingle for random...
Day 20: Fire, Good
While the weekends don’t feel like such a thing these days, at least this Saturday saw some warmer weather roll in. In the morning we got some things done around the house and Erin had a FaceTime session with Asta’s breeder to get some tips on how to groom...
Day 19: Celery Science!
Friday back at work began for me as most days do...with a conference call. Mercifully, it was fairly brief and went well and I was able to get into the real business of the day, which was work, errands and SCIENCE!Part of my to-do list included a run to the store to...
