It's kinda insane out there.  Seems like everyone is either enjoying extra free time or swamped because they are "essential" in some way.  Sounds like you're one of the busy ones.  Stay safe and healthy.  We understand.

still here

Take your time.  We aren't going anywhere.

Still here.  Busy but still here.

Guys, I'm sorry. I still haven't been able to carve out time for a post. I'm at home far more these days, so I really should be able to post again. I'll try for tomorrow or Sunday if possible.

As far as classes go, I've finished my assignments for two and I'm working on a final research paper and my second annotated bibliography of the semester. After that, I have two more projects to complete for two more classes.

My kids have adapted to this new life of social isolation. They've been reasonably good about keeping up with their distance learning assignments their teachers have given them, and we've had the opportunity to play games and read books together. I've been going on a walk every day, and they join me sometimes, but it's hard to get my son outside. His swim team has dryland practices each weekday via Zoom, which at least gives him a workout.

It snowed again today, and snow is forecast for tonight as well. I still haven't gotten used to these subzero Aprils.

I hope you all are safe and well. More from me hopefully in the next couple of days.

It was so much easier when we had a routine.  And then life has to go and throw us the mother of all curve balls.

For sure. And no worries GM, everything has been insane lately.

Thanks for the update LM.  I'm sure everyone has more free time at home but is equally pulled by things to do at home since everyone is stuck there and going stir crazy.  Good luck finding that elusive balance.

It's hard to concentrate on Rpol with a pandemic going on, regardless of available time.

Still holding out hope.

& for my part, too, these last 80 days have been an adventure.  Id prefer to have my next 80 days of adventures right here.

Im glad to be back.

Did you go around the world...?

Kinda.  I was in Milan in February.  And Brooklyn, wherein lies the castle for mine dwelling, if definitely a little world by itself.

In reply to Jody (msg # 654):

Still around, if intermittent...

Still checking in stay safe everyone.

In reply to Haldir (msg # 656):

Still here, if irregular...

They make medicine for that sir.  Sorry, don't mean to mock.

*Slow clap*

Bravo sir.

In reply to Weardon of Amon Lanc (msg # 658):

thanks Dad :P

Stay regular, folks.  Bran muffins can help with that.

In reply to Gumm (msg # 661):

Lol, true. So can a reliable internet connection, the lack of which does give me the shits...

I think it is funny that Gumm is coaching us on how to be regular.
Bran muffins for the win.

If only I could restore regularity to my ISP by feeding it a few bran muffins...
