Wah!

My babies left back to uni, WAH!

I miss them already. There is a certain sense of chaos and energy when they are here that just dissipates immediately when they leave.

It was a bit of a crunch, getting them out. I ended up having Perry take one test (negative), and Linnea is going to give the other test in the package to her roomie (who couldn't get a testing appointment before Thursday). I have no idea what the uni was thinking, letting all these kids come back to dorms without any provision for tests. I mean, had it been me in charge (LOL!)? I'd have had kids take RATs as they showed up.

Anyhow, we shall see. I expect both kids to get Covid some time in the next few weeks, I don't see how it's avoidable at this point. Which is very upsetting. Yes, we have N95-ish masks (not official N95, but meet the same standards, purchased at Costco, and I do trust Costco), and yes, they're triple vaxxed, but still.

Everyone reading, here's hoping all of you, and any of your kids starting up stay safe and avoid getting sick!

If I remember correctly from skimming my email, UMich is testing everyone who lives in the dorms. So I'm surprised that isn't the case for y'all! Cassie is sick right now so went to a mobile testing site on Monday; rapid test was negative and still awaiting the other results.

Just got a text thread that my MIL got a positive rapid test; BIL is trying to arrange isolation housing for her where she can keep her dog (won't be able to leave senior apartment to walk the dog for 10 days! and would be at a loss if her dog went away for that long! She was so confused the other day when dog was gone for a couple hours of grooming). Worrisome, because she has asthma and/or COPD.
