Life Update - Check In

It's been a while, life changed pretty quickly and I had to figure out this new normal. Our schools closed March 13th and I've been working from home since. I had brought my laptop home on the 12th to test out my VPN and the 13th I texted my manager to ask if she wanted me to take the time off or work from home. At first, I was VERY overwhelmed and didn't know if I could settle into working from home while having my son with me. I work in telecommunications and as you can imagine, we had an influx of demands. I was pretty stressed out those first few weeks, I will admit. Most businesses were closed shortly after schools closed and my husband was laid off, we had to work through unemployment while so many others were also applying. My husband was called back to work two weeks after as an essential worker. His company is now working with minimal staff. So that's where we are currently regarding work.
