School’s out for the day, at the recently opened Taylor Home School Academy (THSA) in American Fork, Utah. We have only 4 students (2 7th graders - twins, 1 3rd grader, and 1 in Kindergarten). All 4 have their own computer to attend classes remotely. They are all better and faster typists than I, and they can easily and quickly navigate to almost any appropriate screen. Here at THSA, we have a Principal, a Cook, a Janitor and a Hall Monitor - and right now, I’m all 4.
After his on-line classes were done for today, my 3rd grader and I sat and talked for an hour. The conversation devolved into kids riddles, corny jokes, and then the dreaded “Dad Jokes,” all of which were painful but still hilarious to him.
It was one way for us to fill the many hours of not much to do and nowhere to go.
He missed his ninja class last night. (Damn virus!) I was of no use for that. After all, there’s only so much a grandpa can do.

The children are lucky to have you even if the price is your dad jokes.

Yup. Twins keep having birthdays & graduating. Now it’s puberty time for them. Amazing it’s come to this already!

is there any anti-mo disinfectant available as a precautionary measure?

Only rumors on how effective it is, so don't be fooled.

Oh, if only Don's grandkids could have him "stuck in Utah". It is so hard to grasp that he's been gone nearly 6 years.

Every time I see a post by you, I think of Dr Don. We all miss him too.
