The Hammer Drops

Well, it’s official.  The kids are not going to set foot back in a school building until sometime after June.  The governor officially canceled school yesterday afternoon, and we will be online until the end of the year.

I was on a Zoom meeting with Thumper’s therapist when the news was texted to me by the school district – otherwise, I might have started saying a lot of bad words.

This definitely puts a different spin on the rest of the year – and we’re on spring break right now, so who knows what the rest of the year will look like.  (And let’s not even talk about how we will be transitioning Tad from middle school to high school this fall…)

Rerun had made a comment about wanting to make a giant chocolate chip cookie earlier in the day.  I figured that this news was the perfect reason to make a giant cookie and eat it.

Fortunately, the kids were there to make sure I didn’t eat the whole thing by myself.  In my current mood, I would have been tempted to do so.
