Quarantine Chronicles

One of the most rewarding practices during my family's pandemic quarantine has been journaling. It's usually accompanied by a fresh cup of coffee - either early in the morning, or during our afternoon break. I felt like typing them up one day, and the more I tracked the minutiae of our isolated day-to-day, the more I wanted to. These posts have added up, so I decided to make a dedicated place for them.

I've left them largely unedited, so keep in mind that these are hastily scribbled stream of consciousness style journal entries - taken from the messy pages of a spiral notebook. They're basic, and sometimes boring, but they hold all the intricacies of what life is like at home for our family during this strange time.
