Finally! The sun has come out. After a very breezy night, it's now cold.
Yesterday, I worked from home. It's hard to do that. I keep getting distracted with social media and news and kids and house chores and, and, and.... My goal for next week is to be more focused, and help the kids understand when they can interrupt work (a fire, gushing blood) and for what purpose (NOT to settle a dispute or renew their screen time).

Ed took the day off due to working last weekend in preparation for the vacation we did not have. He worked on his bee hive, which he built from scratch. The boys were outside for some of the day, and Declan (Gill's friend) came over for a couple of hours. We are so used to having him over that when his dad texted, I just replied yes. Declan was in a camp all last week, and his mom is still going to work at an area hospital. I'm not sure that it was the right decision to let the boys play. I did have them wash their hands, but they constantly touch their faces so it's almost meaningless. And they share screens, though there was a lot of outdoor play. We will have to make different decisions going forward.
Gill and Jonas have continued to be more helpful around the house than usual.
