William started virtual school. It went better than I expected, because his school actually got off its duff to provide synchronous instruction this year. (I'm glad all the energy I put into loudly bemoaning the lack of synchronous teaching in the spring was justified? It's always nice to know that your untrammeled whinging had a point.)
School in general is made for kids like William. He loves structure, assignments, and conformity. I'm worried about some of these characteristics in the long term, but in the short term it's an easy ride.
What else is happening?
-A smattering of the first days that give one an inkling that there might, at some distant point on the horizon, be something other than summer.
-Donuts.
-I have muted the most egregious virtue signalers in my FB feed and it has made me much happier.
-Lots o' teaching, as per usual. Now that I only have one career, it's trickier to separate my sense of self from it. Still learning to navigate this.
-Margaret is getting to be excessively two.
