Re: Friday the 13th check-in ...


 

Checking in from Boston. ?

Work is work. ?

I'm primarily in the outpatient?setting (and will be 100% come January), but that means we are trying to figure out how to see kids w coughs and fevers in a way that is safe for out other patients, and the other practices in the building. The hospital is much more structured.? The office feels?a lot like the Wild West.?

Parker is in the process of moving to NYC (Manhattan rents are **super** cheap ?just now), and hopefully will find a job relatively?soon.? It is very exciting, but nerve-wracking too, as he will be outside of where I can rescue him.? He has been staying w me since late October, but going down to NYC to tour apartments. ? After one back and forth, Scott and I decided to just put him up at an AirBnB for 10 days so he would just be there, apartment hunting.? He has an application in on a great lofted studio in Chelsea for the same rent I paid for him in Waltham.? Hopefully they will accept it and he will have a new home.? Then he'll be back (testing first, of course) to pack everything and move down.? The back and forth is hard to be comfortable with... and then he's there until the numbers get better....? I am totally isolated from my pod until he has been gone for 2 weeks, so it will be a lonely stretch in December.

Such an anxious time for everyone...

I almost feel bad checking in after reading how awful things are for all of you.

We are living an almost normal life, there¡¯s been no Covid-19 cases in my little part of Australia for months.
We have to sign in at coffee shops & restaurants & try not to get too close to people around town but otherwise nothing much is different apart from reading about the rest of the world & worrying.

I¡¯m not complacent though, I know how quickly things could change.?

Son & family live in Manhattan and are still working & schooling from home & being very careful when out. They are preparing for what they think will be another lockdown.

Work has begun on building daughter¡¯s new house, will be months until it¡¯s ready.

Please all of you take care
