+<p>
+	We're alive! All three of us: Amy, Clementine, and myself. We're doing
+	what we do best and that is being hermits with zero social contact.
+	That's pretty okay by us though because it lets us slow down from all
+	the fast-paced life changes we've made in the past few months.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+	In January Amy and I bought a house! We couldn't have done it without
+	the wonderful help of everyone who gave us wedding gifts. We got a nice
+	little standalone place in Suffolk, much closer to where I work and
+	centrally located for Amy's tutoring business. We spent all of January
+	painting and prepping for the big move. Late January and early February
+	were all moving and unpacking and trying to get back in the groove.
+	Since the outbreak, we've been using the extra time at home to finish up
+	all the move-in projects we wanted to: finishing painting, putting up
+	shelves, hanging pictures, and rewiring electrical outlets.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+	Amy also finally got the chance to pursue her dream job: she started up
+	her own private tutoring business. She's been working hard with clients
+	all over Hampton Roads, from college students all the way to
+	first-graders. Business was booming before schools closed but I know
+	she'll bring it back once things have returned to normal again. No
+	worries though, she's spending this time helping William and Mary handle
+	remote operations and students in need. She's also [supposed to be]
+	writing her master's thesis so she can graduate in May but you know how
+	it is.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+	We're also working through a family illness, which adds difficulty . We
+	expect a speedy recovery though and we're really excited for that.
+	All-in-all, we're really enjoying our lives as a happily married couple.
+	It's been about eight months now and I've enjoyed every minute of it:
+	the glad, the slightly stressed, and the overarching worry as the world
+	took a strange turn. But we're looking forward to a good Summer now. The
+	weather has turned nice -- really nice -- and Clementine is forcing us
+	to get outside. She's in love with her nice, big fenced-in yard and
+	refuses to come in after catching hoops most of the time.
+</p>
+
+<p>Stay safe, smart, and sane!</p>
