Week 5

Day 28: #Covid19HomePrison Woof. Hard night, hard morning, okay afternoon (because Patrick was asleep), great night (because I taught my classes on Zoom and daddy did tubby and bedtime!)! TOMORROW IS A NEW DAY! On a somber note, this week I have known 2 people to pass away.. Anthony’s grandfather and my father’s friend, Mark Natale. REST IN PEACE People, please stay home #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger

Day 29: #Covid19HomePrison Today was the first day that I sat around, ate food and basically did nothing. And I loved every minute of it. We tried to have a movie night with the boys, but that only lasted as long as the popcorn… And that was not long at all! Oh well, we can try again tomorrow night. #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger

Day 30: #Covid19HomePrison 30 days. A WHOLE MONTH OF QUARANTINE. (At least it went fast?) Family came over to drop off the boy’s Easter baskets! We loved seeing everyone today…. Socially distanced, of course. The boys helped daddy build some ramps for their Jeep and we colored Easter eggs! Can’t wait for the Easter Bunny to come! #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger

Day 31: #Covid19HomePrison Happy Easter everyone! The Easter Bunny came and the boys loved everything they were given… Especially the candy, duh. We spent the day outside playing and blowing bubbles. We missed our family and Easter dinner, but I made a mini version. For dessert we had brownies or as Patrick calls them, “bownees”. Spring Break is over… Back to school tomorrow. Wish us luck! #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger

Day 32: #Covid19HomePrison holy moly the rain and the wind today.. luckily, I had no where to be! Anthony’s teacher made a YouTube video for his class work today and he was so excited and interested in it! He loved seeing Miss Alana and singing the songs. It made me so happy to see him enjoy school today. #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger

Day 33: #Covid19HomePrison Quarantine means weird times to shower. Am I right?! I showered at 2pm today and then blew out my hair for the first time in a month. What an arm workout. Home schooling is going better now that I can just put Miss Alana on the TV every morning. The sun came out today so we splashed in mud and puddles. Then we watched and waited for the *alien super spaceship*. And the boys had to barricade the front door so they couldn’t get in. They used every toy they could find.. but decided a low single file line was their strategy. Onto tomorrow! #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger

Day 34: #Covid19HomePrison welp, I knew it was too good to be true. Two good days of school was followed by this morning of hell. I’m done. Bare minimum it is I think our mental health and our relationship is more important. We have had more fights in the past month than in his ALMOST 4 years of existence. Soooo, after that debacle, we took a drive. I needed to be out of my house. Away from it; a change of scenery. Within the first 5 minutes Patrick was passed out (3 hours before his nap time.. yay ) and didn’t wake up for the entire hour that we were out. And I get it, why he passed out… It has to be exhausting crying and whining all day AND not sleeping through the night. UGGGGGGHHH. Sometimes, I JUST. NEED. SILENCE. Ya know? *Also, IV might have changed his name to Peter Parker/Spiderman. Possibly? #iCanDoThis #StayTheFuckHome #IfYouDontThisLastsLonger
