Most of us work remotely 3 days a week, so there have been no changes thus far. We follow the inclement weather decisions of the county schools, so I feel nothing will change for us unless it changes for the students.

I still don't know how to find out about all the conferences that happen in a year, and I am afraid that if I learn, I'll be paralyzed by all the options. 😂 My goal is to attend at least one local (D.C. Metro) conference this year. All that to say that, no, I have no plans up in the air.

The two biggest changes for me so far are:

  1. Falling down the rabbit hole. I read about the Spanish Flu for two hours over the weekend, and I've started reading about Marburg again. Anyone here a Richard Preston fan?
  2. Feeling even more concerned for people that will suffer the ignorance of the general populace, whether it is xenophobia or complacency.
