Obligatory COVID-19 Post

+

+ 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. +

+ +

+ 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. +

+ +

+ 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. +

+ +

+ 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. +

+ +

Stay safe, smart, and sane!
