Today starts a new era. It's the first day of the shelter-in-place of Bay Area residents in order to slow down the spread of the Corona virus. Last night was one of the oddest feelings you can have before going to bed. It felt as if we were in some Cinderella movie where once midnight strikes, your life will be forever changed. I guess that's kind of what happened- life is changed. Kids have no school for at least three weeks, must stay away from others at least six feet, and many places are closed. It is nice to still be able to go out of the house and be outside- also able to go to parks if needed, as well as buy gas/groceries. The challenge? Home with all the kids all day long. No break at all- maybe when some are napping, but otherwise extremely thankful for my wife (S) and how much she has planned and prepared the kids for the day. Still, it makes for some longer days but I guess it just means bonus time with the kids! Overall, it's the beginning of the new.
