Day 62

It was a pretty great day today. K and I played some duets together out front while G took her first nap. A lot of people appreciated it, and it was so wonderful to play my violin again. I really miss it so much, even playing my students' simple songs with them. The weather was hot, but I was able to go for a run during G's second nap. I found a nice new path that was redone with a lovely bridge and a path that goes through a natural area along the water. It was really pleasant and not too crowded, so it felt safer to jog around there.

K made a good dinner, and in the evening we hung outside for a while and did a crossword puzzle. The guy who moved into our old house down the street was having a loud party -- it's the first time I've seen someone blatantly disregard the stay-at-home orders and social distancing.

Days 73-74

May 28-29, 2020 We've been getting ready to celebrate baby G's 1st birthday! We made a cake on Thursday night and iced it on Friday night, her actual birthday. On Saturday will be her virtual party with family members FaceTiming during cake and presents. We had a fun couple of days -- lots of family walks, time outside (although it's getting swampy hot), and new presents for her birthday. My cousin's new baby is doing well, although they're struggling with the feeding and sleep schedule understandably. Turns out my aunt (the grandmother) is allowed to come visit. I'm not sure if she's wearing a mask, but everyone's taking the normal precautions. There have been more shootings and murders of unarmed black people lately. Protests and even riots are happening in Minneapolis (where George Floyd was murdered) and other areas around the country. Social media is lighting up with arguments and memes.

Day 41

It was a restful Saturday. We relaxed a bit in the morning, and then K went to pick up our farmers' market items and he also mowed the grass. I had a nice morning with baby G. After lunch G and I went for a jog, and the weather was lovely -- somewhat cool and not windy. I had a great afternoon with baby G while K did some work for his classes. Mostly stayed off of social media today. After the president's outrageous statement yesterday, conservatives are claiming that there are actual medical treatments based on what he said. And then today he said he was being sarcastic and just said it to get a reaction out of the reporters.
