On this day my two youngest kids resumed online learning. It went fine for one of them. The other-- well, I'm pretty tired right now. In August it got better after two weeks. I will keep saying this to myself. (But you guys, those two weeks were bad.)
Also on this day my husband returned to working at home; his office is closed indefinitely.
In between interruptions I contrived to lose all of the work I did in my stats program today, and learned that a collaborator thinks we should redo all of the quantitative analyses for our paper.
I know that people have no-good very bad days in Australia too. But if I had had this bad day in Australia, it would not be pitch dark at 5:08pm. And huh, I just discovered that the total number of COVID cases reported in 8 months across the entire continent of Australia is less than the number of new COVID cases in my state this week. There's something to be said for Australia.
I'm looking with envy at Vermont's numbers. I'd settle for cold and dark with minimal Covid.

I was in Sydney the first week in March (you know, when our President was telling us it was safe to travel) and I loved it too much and am ready to move there. I am actively looking for employment there so if someone reading this has anything, please, get in touch!

I meant to write when I saw this on Twitter: I’m so sorry. I hope things are better now. Not necessarily good, even, but better.
