The dress up vaccine friend of a friend of Jesse's is awesome! (Though obviouy not the fact that she had to postpone everything.)
I was in the first of five (9a-4p!) Zoom sessions for a workshop given by the JCA in our area for job seekers 50+. It was pretty good! Then the facilitator called after it was over today to ask whether I would be the mock interviewee for the group (that happens Monday). I cheerfully agreed. I think there was a time in my life that that would have made me so self-conscious! That time, apparently, has passed. Getting older def has its benefits. Anyway, I was so tickled. "They like me! They really like me!" Total goofball, I am.
Dylan went back to in-person school today for the first time since last March, and I thought I'd prepared myself for all possible reactions, but the first thing he said when I asked how it went was "I'm taller than all the teachers now."

Ha!
Matilda won't be on her school campus at all this year. But her friend Mia (down in San Bruno, a half hour south of SF) will be, and now Matilda is worried that she can't see Mia because her cohort is too big. And...I don't know really know how to parse the risk there.
David - keep meetings outside (as long as the weather allows this)?
That is very cool, JenP!
Ugh, David. That is tough. It is much easier as adults to deal with the concept of this too shall pass.
dcp, so evocative... of something.
David, that's hard. Bleh. I don't have anything useful. Just sorry for the kids.
I have a lot to do today, and I'm starting off verrryyyy slowly. OK. half an hour working on the website before 10:30a meeting. That is my challenge to me, and you are my witnesses. Go!
April is the cruellest month. BTW, nice tag, dcp

Ugh, that's a tough one. I guess it depends on how seriously the school takes masking/distancing protocols?
Only one of Dylan's close friends is in the in-person cohort, and they don't have any classes together, or the same lunch/recess period, which is disappointing. I mean, he's not seeing any *less* of his friends than he was last week when they were all remote, but I was hoping he would at least have someone to eat with and talk to during the day.
