Proud mum of an autistic kid, juggling work & motherhood. Stuck at home since this ‘mild’ thing called Covid arrived with my high risk family. Thrown into homeschooling as a result. Doodle to de-stress & geek at heart

About to change to husband’s instance. So see you on the other side (hopefully)
@mcc @androcat thank you!
My trade deal with local merchants in my town.
@androcat @mcc so are they no longer doing it?
Got the vampire child out the door today as overcast & bribed with the promise of his Sunday ice cream when we returned. A slow start turned nicer once he spotted an interesting leaf and grass. Apparently the sky was dripping (we had a few spots of rain but nothing really) so he used a stick and leaves to make a ‘brella’. Hilarious boy. Nice to get out with him though and photos for the grandparents of more than school tasks for a change
@[email protected] @andymoose @elana @Lorrrraaaaine I walk around our local market in it and the grocery stores in my city a bit further inland. Our city is pretty conservative. I’ve had one person shout ‘seriously?’ at me about 3 years ago and nothing since. But then I have a good glare and also tend to ignore people. They could all be staring at me for all I know. I’m there to do a shop, in and out.
is it still doomscrolling when there’s real doom out there or is it just regular scrolling

Same people since 2021, during reported surges: *recoils in horror at sight of mask* Are you siiiiiiiiiiiick?!

Same people since 2021, during perceived lulls: *scoffing and eye-rolling* Are you scaaaaaaaaared?

People in 2021: "We have to learn to live with Covid! It's never going away! Just accept that everyone is going to catch it eventually!"
Same people since 2021: too scared to say the word Covid, pretends every Covid infection is "allergies" and "a bad cold" and "summer flu" and "nasty thing that's going around."

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
