Voluntary Quarantine Day 2
2nd day of voluntary quarantine.
On Thursday 3-12-20 we were informed at school that the district would be shut down on 3-13-20 to prepare for a possible school wide shutdown due to Corona Virus and staff would report but not students. This was 5 minutes before the students left for the day.
On Friday 3-13-20 after a staff meeting, we were informed to prepare 10-15 days of lesson plans for a total shut down for a couple weeks.
Then came the mess of preparing, using the copy machine, cleaning our rooms, catching up on grades (kinda like last day of school for summer vaca ) and getting ready to leave.
Saturday 3-14-20 Pi Day 3.14 Saying no to a shower I was looking forward to, realizing that I was really sick with a sinus infection and now that school was prepared for, I could take care of me. I HAD to run to Target to get my scripts (antibiotics and steroids) and cancel dinner plans with friends. The only thing left that I could do was to walk the dog. This is day 1 of the quarantine.
Sunday 3-15-20 Day 2 Woke up about 8:30 because church is closed for services, no reason to be up and go anywhere. 2nd shower today, not going. I am old and don't want to expose myself unnecessarily. Spent the day cleaning, washing the car in the driveway for the 1st time since October, walked the dog and did household chores. Did not go anywhere where there are other people. This is really hard and the directives from school are changing by the hour. We are not on break but can't teach from home because our students don't have internet or devices to use for lessons. It is what it is and this is getting harder by the day.
