I'm not stressed. Or annoyed.
Coronavirus is here, and yet, I know I'd much rather be on my regular routine, complaining about meal-prepping and all the adulting I have to do on my limited weekends, and then heading back to school on Monday like nothing was wrong.
Tuesday was supposed to be our half day for PD because in Illinois it's a voting day. We were out at noon, and then we had tentatively planned to go get a green beer in honor of St. Patty's day.
But none of that is happening.
Today I watched mass on LiveStream, instead of seated in church.
Today I went for a walk and hardly saw anyone. (Also locked myself out, thankful for my best friend who saved the day!)
Tomorrow I'll go in to work for four hours help teachers get some options set up for e-learning, and then I'll be back at home.
There will be no green beer on Tuesday.
Probably won't see many of my friends face-to-face for the next two weeks.
But I'm not feeling angry or annoyed or stressed. Maybe we should look at this as a time to slow down. Maybe there are some ways in which we can heal with this abundance of time. Now we are blessed with time for other priorities, that book we've been meaning to read, that closet we've been meaning to clean. Maybe we need to make that call to a loved one, or send that text. Or write a letter. Remember snail mail?!

Around 4:30 pm, our governor closed all restaurants and bars effective tomorrow and my mom called worried and sh*t got real. But for now, I must rest, so more on that, tomorrow.
Check out my former years slicing here. Find me on Instagram here. And twitter, here.
It all is so strange. When restaurants and bars closed though, it definitely felt like a new level of seriousness.
