Much love and ~ma to all Buffista parents and sprogs.
Also, hi, #TeamBarometer! My roommate is amused when I'm telling her when the rain is about the start.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Y'all with kids, I don't even know what to say except that I see how brutally hard it is, emotionally, logistically, financially. I see how you're struggling and how hard you're working and I love you for it and I wish it was better.

What Brenda said. I’m barely keeping myself together, forget trying to help kids too (either small and needing supervision or teenagers being teenagery)

move out and draw fire
#TeamBarometer We should get t-shirts, maybe with an image of a stormglass and the text "this is the inside of my head right now AINFG"

Ltc is doing better than I did figuring out my grocery list.

I didn’t say she was the one who threw the tantrum.

I'm in a quandary and want some advice - apologies in advance for the length. Youngest son (2nd grade) was not doing well with virtual school at all. We pulled him to home school a couple of months ago. We knew that would be hit or miss and were kind of like, whatever. His/my therapist (yes I see a child psych and I LOVE HER SO MUCH) suggested a home schooling pod run by someone she loves. I looked into it and it seems like a really perfect fit for him. They specialize in kids with issues (my kid has extreme anxiety) and they currently have 5 kids (from two families, who have been bubbled as they live near each other and each lost a family member to cancer within the last year). They have 2 teachers and currently one teaches a 7yo (another boy), and the other teaches the kids who are older. So, son would be in a 1 to 2 ratio with a teacher. I feel like he needs this so much and it will give us insight into where he struggles and how we can best support him moving forward. The issue? We are nervous about sending him with the COVID numbers continuing to spike. We've been pretty locked down since March so this feels like a big exposure/risk. They do take temperatures and only kids are allowed inside (no parents) and seem like they are being responsible. Still, I worry. What would you do?
