Keef you're surviving on a level that makes the living dead storyline look positively cushy; you're gonna be good.
The gubner just shut down schools statewide for 3 weeks. My housemate teaches in public ed, and is 3 weeks away from closing on her new house, and is a wreck. Mostly from a sense of not getting any useful info from the school district or her union rep, just reading it in the paper. Surprise! The ides of March just stuck a knife in her back. Hopefully the prime rate drop makes it up to her in the long run!
My work is over the state line and my instincts are telling me it's going to be a week delay between mass and vermont, despite the tourism industry in VT making the state border quite blurry, to the point of irrelevance.
My roomies coworker just posted on Facebook that she's looking for work during the break... house, yard, childcare, errands... B1TCH YOU ARE GONNA BECOME A VECTOR!!! I would seriously hire her to help me with yard stuff but knowing she's just tooting around going wherever, screw that I'll rake my own lawn. I feel for hourlies and gig workers really, but doesn't mean I'm not looking at their risk factors in the types of work they're doing, before inviting contagion onto my porch. Welcome to chaos; time to pack one and smoke a burnt offering to whatever deities look after agnostic blue collar types.
Gluten free redneck Italian feast tonight. Hashbrown frittata with a bit of meat n spinach integrated into the pie is a pretty good replacement for pasta.
