kim22 , I'm so sorry. Is there anyone who can help you with T? I can't imagine trying to teach and help S at the same time, it's just too much. All of this. Also, why are first graders sitting in a Google meet for three hours and 36 minutes? Those poor kids. S school is remote all day. I feel like they are going to be logged on for hours, hopefully breaking out to do stuff on their own, but still... a lot of google class time

side note: the mall not opening until 11 and needing to pick S up at 11:30 is a real issue. Preach. It is really cramping my style. #FWP

Today I got stung or bit by something on my lip. The right side was huge. You can see a mark that looks like where whatever got me. But it was the oddest feeling. I don’t even know when/where/what happened. Lol. I just suddenly started feeling the swelling. After a few hours it has finally started going down.
Now I’m sitting in my car outside of OT and Speech waiting to go in because we are early.

That's annoying tgrimes. We had to do that for all telework in the past and for the first month of quarantine. It is a time suck and annoying. I would try to group things together on one line so the time it took wouldn't be suspicious if it took longer than planned due to C. So instead of "uploaded monthly treatment reports 15mins. Opened three cases 30mins. Set up new employee in HR system 30mins. I would put all three together as the task description and 1hr 30mins. Then I gain that 15 mins here and there. From looking at other logs there was a lot of stretching going on. Would that be possible for you? Today they sent out our job descriptions and we have to put in a baseline and metric to each line item. They will be preparing some form that we have to fill out to submit our time. We had to do this when we first started working from home but it was just an email that said 45 min-responding to/sending emails, ordering title-30 min, etc. This is total bs.

I just cried for like an hour. 3 hours and 36 minutes into T’s google meet, we quit. If school can’t open, I really may need to just pull him and homeschool at night on my own. It’s awful. My heart broke reading this, I’m so sorry.

Speaking of Netflix, if anyone enjoys documentaries, I started watching Wild Wild County yesterday and its pretty interesting. Seems like I should remember more of this since its mainly based in Oregon in the early/mid 80s, but I knew nothing about this.

Welp E has a fever of 100.5. I had to leave work to get her. Since she’s at a DC we had to take her for covid testing per the doctors office. She did not like it and cried. It broke my heart. Now we are watching “Go” aka Frozen. C left work early to pickup L so I didn’t have to keep E in the car. His school lets out in a few minutes so we would have had to wait a 1/2 hour. Please fingers cross that she doesn’t have it.

So I’m 95% sure E is getting her 2 year molars. Which might explain the fever. Should I keep L home until her test results?

Rec: This is so random but we’ve been ending our night by doing a few buzzfeed quizzes with the kids, and it is just so fun. We have to choose them carefully of course, but I really love watching them debate what to pick as their answers.

Also, the town next to us (literally 1 mile from my house) has one new case in the school and they’ve closed for the next two days at least. The Facebook parent groups are blowing up like you wouldn’t believe.

kim22, I'm so sorry. Is there anyone who can help you with T? I can't imagine trying to teach and help S at the same time, it's just too much. We are considering hiring someone to help him but waiting on a schedule to see what’s going on. So far they just stayed on a meet the entire 4 hours. I wish I knew how that is going to work because to pay someone for 20 hours a week will be a lot.

Also, why are first graders sitting in a Google meet for three hours and 36 minutes? Those poor kids. We quit at that point. Not sure how much longer they went on. They were starting math but just drawing shapes. C can do that so no point in keeping him frustrated for that.

We are fortunate that C's are in hour chunks with hour breaks in between. They need that time away from a screen and to get moving! She would tell them to take a 10 minute break but he doesn’t know what 10 minutes is and we didn’t know ahead of time when those were coming. Hoping for some better communication by next week.

guster the girls love doing Buzzfeed quizzes too. We often do Disney ones. chrisy01 that sucks. I hope you get results soon. I'd probably keep them both home until you get a negative. 😔

chrisy01 Hope E’s fever is just molars. Sorry I for the worry. kim22 Are there any other school options for just him- like a private school that is in person. I know that probably equally as expensive as just getting some at home help though. I’m sorry.

Hi. I don’t think I checked in other than to reply. I was at work and we were steady then had a training this afternoon. MH got the rest of his stuff from his office and may have come up on a job lead. We’ll see if anything comes of it in the next week.
Work for me and school for M tomorrow. His last hybrid day. I caught M’s cold so that has not been fun- especially wearing the mask at work.
