My kids were fighting and I told them if they didn't stop I would make them go shovel the driveway and they LOVED that idea and got dressed and went outside. It's like a January 3 miracle. (It's 7 degrees here, and we only have a couple of inches but it's icy and coooold.)
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't see any signs of neighbor kids, and feel like I should get out there. Also, i can't get my work computer on the wifi, because I think my mother lost the password. Ugh!

Wifi? Successful! Neighbor kids? Out there! Me? Now working, I guess.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
It's 20 degrees here in Virginia and that is quite cold enough for me! My office in New Jersey is closed but I'm working anyway. Bless everyone who braved the elements, and be safe!

So, I shouldn't mention it's 60 degrees here and the forecast says it will be cooler than yesterday, but still 72 degrees?
Ohmigod! So the story goes like this, the kid's father wasn't in the Bay Area like he told K and the kid's mom. He was in DC and stranded at Dulles, but every time he spoke to K he made it seem like he was just in San Francisco because he didn't want the kid's mom to know that he was out of state. WTF?!?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That's not even just out of state, that's across the continent. WTF?
