I do so love hearing about PiBoy and PiGirl! My heart breaks that you are denied their love and hugs for this period of time.

Oy, Nilly. Time is on your side! May those 10 days pass quickly.

(I keep thinking of Passover and the Seders with Covid19).

NILLY!!!!!! Oh how I love to read your words. You describe things so wonderfully. Your children sound as lovely as their mother.

Aw, PiChildren! They sound wonderful, as of course they were bound to be, but it is so nice to get some details of their wonderfulness!

These kids with the getting older and growing up, I don't know.

Brady Bunch/CNN hybrid

I feel like I have an accurate picture of this in my mind. Yikes

Go, Tep! I will now be imagining your officiant duties always including Fleabag quotes and interpretive dance.

Laura, yes! We've come up with a sequence of hand gestures that we perform one in front of the other when what we really want to do is hug each other but are not allowed to.

And Shir, absolutely. To everybody who tells me how difficult it must be to be self-quarantining suring Purim, I express my gratitude that it's not Pesakh (and, hopefully, that it won't be).

And still, I hope the worst thing this virus does is this quarantine. We'll end up making this the fodder for nostalgic family funny stories, and make a special experience out of this. I do so sincerely hope that it's going to end with that.

I now want video of Teppy officiating with bonus interpretive dance moves.

Ha! No one deserves interpretive dance from me.

MSBELLE! Whenever PiGirl declares her love to pink or glitter or both combined I feel like you somehow know. Like the universe hould somehow update you or something.

Also, you've just recently moved, right? Tell me about your new place!

In fact, everybody - I've skipped so much, I don't really know how any of you are doing. Is it too much meMeME to ask you to tell me how you're doing? I've missed y'all!

Although the reason is unfortunate, I am simply delighted to be reading Nilly posts.

I've been visiting with my Florida sister the last few days and will be heading home today. My New York sister has been sick most of her visit, which has been a whole lot of no fun. She is feeling better today and ready to travel back to my house. Maybe even go to the beach!

My babies are now 25 and 28, with the 25 yo and his wife making plans to make me a grandmother. I've reached the appropriate age and grey hair level to allow that to happen. They remain huggy and lovey despite their huge sizes and advanced years.

Hi Nilly!! So good to hear from you!

I'm in Mexico on vacation, chilling and eating tacos and morbidly reading the news...I made the mistake of checking my work email and found that my coworker who is supposed to be covering for me (and there is lots to do) apparently suddenly won't be at work yesterday or today? So I'm annoyed at that and thinking about several urgent issues that probably got dropped and will be a huge headache when I'm back. Grrr.

Nilly!! Your kids sound terrific, and I also hope that boredom is the worst that comes from the virus for you.

I feel that this will resonate: [link]

I'm dealing with one million emails about what is cancelled, what students are doing, what we should be doing, etc. etc., but otherwise just counting down to my own vacation next week.
