Meg called me this afternoon to let me know that she was running to Kroger for her friend, Yatziri as she was in isolation due to a positive COVID test. Yatziri had been ordering out most of her meals, but was in need of a few items. Meg was happy to get them for her. She said that it felt nice to do an act of service as she hadn't really had much of a chance to do so this sememster. She texted Hannah-Marie, who was also quaranting due to a COVID exposure, to see if she needed anything. She said that she would love some Lucky Charms. After talking to Cal, however, we realized that she needed more groceries than just that so Meg made a longer list of items to pick up for her tomorrow. Cal could relate to the feeling of isolation as he had pretty much hung out in our basement since Wednesday awaiting the results of his own COVID test. He hadn't been feeling well this week and thought it was best to make sure it wasn't the coronavirus.
COVID changed Cam's plans for the next two weeks as well. Bethany had altered their learning platform and would only have in person classes on Thursday and Friday of next week for high school students until after Thanksgiving break. There had not been an outbreak at school, but with the virus raging out of control in Elkhart County they felt that it was best to try this approach for now. Bethany has also greatly limited the amount of spectators at sporting events this winter moving toward live streaming for those who want to watch the games safely from home. We appreciate the school's ability to adapt to the pandemic. It has kept some sense of normalcy in Cameron's life. We could all use some of that right now.
