It will be behind you. It'll take some effort and work and time, no denying that, but there will be a time that all of thise will be behind you and the both of you will get some rest and feel better. You will.
Even more ¬ma and love from across the ocean, the way that's allowed in quarantine.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh, Strix, your poor mom.
It will be behind you.
I'm going to keep this in mind today. Today will be rough. Tomorrow is likely to be rougher.
Universe, I'm tired. I haven't had one whole year in my whole life when I wasn't stressed the hell out about something. Can we just calm the fuck down?

My sister is up. She's calling in to work. I came up here so she could work today, but this is now a 2 person job.
Oh my god, I'm so tired.

Thrive to spite them
I missed a call from work. Our new hours are now 11-6 daily. We can be there 15 mins early and we leave asap.
We can use PTO to make up the difference in our hours. I know I just got them to change my hourly pay but I am going to go and ask if they can undo that and keep me at my old pay. O will be extremely apologitic for being so much a hassle but dude this is huge and I got bills to pay. Unless those get cancelled

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I don't know if we eat weird food that doesn't get sold out, or what.

Sending you love, Nilly!!
Strix, hope you and your Mom have good, hassle free experience at the hospital today.
I'm up and working from home, as usual, but I am dressed and I'm going to put on makeup. It seems like a good challenge.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What a shitshow, Strix! I hope the day goes fine.
I made it through immigration and customs lickety split!
Phew!
I don't really understand all the people who seem to think "work from home" means "watch Netflix and cook"? I mean, yes, also not going out and not commuting. But still?!?
Yeah, same. Although I am sure my job is going to be super slow, so there will be extra time in addition to the commute, but still. This is why I'm taking a couple of vacation days -- I was supposed to be off this week anyway, and now I just want to watch Netflix and cook!
Speaking of cooking, I unearthed some ancient beef stew from my freezer. I'm going to give it a shot.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Our social distancing will probably be mostly Netflix and cook and cleaning all the things. ltc was up for her normal school time today. So, it begins. TCG is still working for now in a closed to the public office with only about 3 or 4 people. Still makes me nervous.
