Technically, nothing is wrong. But I have been barred from visiting Mom (rightly so) for a month and a half. The last time I saw her was March 8 which is (fittingly) Grandma Dot’s birthday. Not being able to check on her in person is tearing me up and making me crazy. I feel helpless and my hands keep shaking thinking about all of the people who are sick and dying, but there are no cases of Coronavirus at her skilled nursing facility as of today.
I finished grad school on Thursday, but I won’t get the edTPA test results until late this Thursday night to know if I can apply for state licensure. North Carolina schools are closed until at least August 27 due to covid-19 so I can’t substitute teach between now and then like I’d planned.
Dave and Claire are struggling a lot with remote learning. Claire was fabulous today and helped Dave figure out some algebra problems. I think I’m going to make a mental Telehealth appointment sometime in the next couple weeks to help me deal with so much stuff that I cannot possibly fix. Matt told me to “just shake it off,” but that’s impossible.
