It's been a seriously shitty few days for a number of reasons and I've just lost interest in writing. There isn't one particular thing that's to blame but rather a multitude of things, most of which are outside of my control. It goes without saying the this country is in total chaos. I completely support the protesters and the Black Lives Matter movement. If I were able, I would be marching right along with everyone else. It's heartbreaking to see everything that's going on and it makes me so angry to see those in power, doing nothing, or even worse, standing in the way of addressing police brutality and the systemic racism that's festering in this country.  I'm disgusted by the Republican party and absolutely despise Trump and all he…

I've been struggling today and I'm not entirely sure why. Recently, I've been in a pretty good place because everyone is safe, healthy and doing as well as can be expected. Work is going really well and I even have a new partnership I'm finalizing. These are all good things. The world around us is imploding and there are protests within about a mile of my house. I've been extra anxious, overwhelmed and on edge recently. Gavin had some issues with his IVIG Infusion that caused some drama for everyone in the house and that sorta set the tone for me.

First and most importantly, a decision has been made in regards to the boys education moving forward, at least until such time that a working COVID-19 vaccine is widely available and we've established some herd immunity. Lizze and I have been talking about this quite a bit, in consultation with their therapist and we've decided that the boys will be homeschooled in the Fall. This wasn't an easy decision for a number of reasons but it's without a doubt, the safest thing we can do. Their…

The boys and I have had a pretty decent day.  Actually, I'm going to promote the day from decent to pretty darn good. Nothing particularly eventful took place but I'm really proud of my boys because they demonstrated a shitload of teamwork today. Part of Gavin's new bedset came in over the weekend. His actual mattress is coming early as well and will be here on Wednesday. I wanted to get his old mattress, boxspring and frame out to the trash today. Someone will come and scrap the frame before morning. Anyway, everyone helped haul things down to the first floor. I took most of it out by myself because I live in a neighborhood full of covidiots and I need to be extra careful. I was able to get…
