One of the things I'm going to try to do during these unusual times is post some brief update journals so a broader array of folks know we're okay. I have expanded my communication mediums as well which is helping, but there's lots going on around and FA has been my main artery into the furry fandom for the last thirteen years and that's not changing.

What is changing is the adjustments to working from home. This is not easy for me but I'm managing to get better about it and I'll probably finally be genuinely productive at it in another week or so. The class I teach during this time is still running though we've made several changes to maximize social distancing; this means I still go into work every other work day. My county is under stay-at-home orders except for life essential activities. My work is excluded from this but I do honestly wonder whether or not we'll get interrupted again, especially with how bad I suspect April is going to be for most places.

My family is doing okay right now. My parents sent me "Legend of Zelda, Link's Awakening" for the Switch yesterday. I had some stuff to do so Angie gave it a test run and it looks like it will be fun once I give it a spin today. Angie's been getting quite creative with her play, setting up her own little desk using one of my books as her laptop and selling some of my other books as computers. Been asking me to write different names of customers all in cursive; now that's been fun to try to do again. Her enthusiasm is a wonderful balm.

I imagine that in ten years when we look back on this time, my daughter will remember it as one of the best times of her life, a time when her family were all there and we did so many different fun things together.

If the rains let up and the temperature can stay up in the sixties I'll probably be out spreading lawn seed and so forth this week. We Zebras do know the importance of growing good grass!

Stay healthy everyone and wash those hooves and paws!

Dominus vobiscum
