Corona Quarantine: Day 13- Adjust.

Today was a busy day at work.
LOTS of calling, emailing, supporting of students.
Also saw a couple people for testing as well.
Our leadership team has set up thorough tracking for the cases in our communities, but this new system requires a steep and fast learning curve, and lots of checking in on our current patients.

Then at the end of the day, Gov Baker announced the extension of school closures till 5/4/2020.
This news, if I'm being honest, was not a complete surprise, but it still took my breath away for a second. James and I checked in tonight and will plan to share the weeks as we can. We told the kids over dinner there were going be more weeks at home than we planned and that we still need to stay home to stay healthy.

All of this, every day, requires adjusting. All the time.
It's hard to keep everything clear as the data and plans evolve as we get more data.
And then the plans needs to change again.

It's like we are surfing on a surfboard that we are constructing as we ride it.
These waves are rough right now.

I am not sure if I should be hopeful about the May return to school date. Many other states have cancelled the rest of the year already.

May the fourth be with us all.
