Welcome to Quarantine

So this COVID-19 thing, it’s really taken over everyone’s lives. Including mine. And for the next little bit I’m staying home with my kids.

We’re not infected, but we don’t want to be, and Australia’s infection rate is going up and it’s scary right now.

I don’t know what’s going to happen. So many people are losing their jobs. I don’t feel safe sending my kids back to school right now.

I don’t think I’ll be going to Japan at the end of the year.

But this could also be a good thing. Time to catch up with what’s going on with my kids. We can spend some real quality time together. With kids, the days are long but the years go quick. It won’t be long before they’re teenagers.

I am not setting up a home school situation. We will do some educational activities and I will work through some of the resources from Education Queensland with them but I am prioritising our mental health above all else at right now.

It’s only day one, I feel optimistic. If all goes well maybe we can go back to school and work after Easter. We’ll see.

But I will blog about it.

Time to create a primary source about the COVID-19 pandemic.
