Self-distancing Day 1

No better time to resume blogging than when practicing self-distancing, right?

Just about everything is shut down here in Colorado... schools, Mass, skiing, libraries, and the possibility of finding toilet paper without showing up at 4 am at the store. Daniel's office is still open

Our first day of "stay away from people" was kind of our second for Anni and me as we both came down with a stomach bug on Friday. The littles started out with a rather cheerful parade around the backyard, and Daniel set to work on a fruit pie for Pi day. We watched the "edited" version of the Sound of Music (to the end of the wedding, because, sensitive kids), Jude ate at least eight bowls of popcorn, and then I kicked everyone outside to make dinner. Unfortunately, a smaller sibling than should have attempted it tried to pick Jude up off the stairs and he tumbled and ended with a rather nasty bump and bruise on his forehead and a scratched up little nose and cheek. Oh, goodness, poor baby! We ended the day with pizza (pie) and triple berry pie. I haven't gotten to try Daniel's pie (trying to be gentle on my recovering tummy), but it got rave reviews from everyone else.

How is the pandemic affecting your lives?
