I always work from home, and so far my work's been remaining steady, so mostly I'm being impacted right now with an increased cognitive/emotional load; I have to process the changes in the world and make mindspace to keep writing essays ect. It's been a bit of a challenge. As of yesterday, I've cut almost all the way off the news to make it possible.
I welcome the Biden administration, may it begin soon. & I'm so grateful to Gov. Whitmer in MI for protecting my family.
Personally speaking, I'm relatively safe. I'd made the shift out to A's house in the suburbs just as this all came down, in late February. We've been getting our respective small possessive tabby females to tolerate each other for the last three weeks. I'm not all the way moved, at first we just took me & my bedding & the cats in the car. We drove back to the city yesterday to get more of my things, in case of a shelter-in-place order. I've not been on the CTA since middle of last month, a significant change for me.
Mostly, I feel like I'm having to adjust to being locked in to my current trajectory, when I had been enjoying having some play of choice. My lease goes through June, so there will be time enough to go back for the rest of my books & furniture at some point. But for now, I'm in a lifeboat with A, and it's a good lifeboat, and he's a good lifeboat partner. I didn't mean to choose so fast or hard, but so it goes.
Finished the last season of Mrs. Maisel (pretty, currently v. soothing.) Am reading Kate Manne's book Down Girl & listening to Madeleine L'Engle audiobooks at night.
