Goal Post: How’s Everybody Doing?

Posted on May 9, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

The title is a genuine question.  It was an option for tomorrow, but I have something for Mother’s Day.  My head isn’t exactly in the game either, so I’m having trouble focusing on stuff.  Part of the reason is I … Continue reading →

Goal Post: I’m Just Going to Remove Anything Before ‘Day’ on the Calendar

Posted on May 2, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I’m going to start with heavy event number one.  I can’t talk about details because that would be crossing a line.  All I will say is that I got to experience my first Zoom funeral this week.  Found it awkward … Continue reading →

Goal Post: The Weather Didn’t Help This Week

Posted on April 25, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

The lockdown, quarantine, stay-at-home orders, or whatever you want to call it is hard enough without crappy weather.  At least for me, I’d rather it be nice outside, so I can open a window or feel warm.  Take a step … Continue reading →

Seriously, These Weeks Are Turning into Months

Posted on April 18, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

Betting everyone feels like these weeks are just an endless cycle of nothing.  Sure, the sun goes up and down to signify the passage of time.  Yet, it doesn’t feel like it means a difference since every day is basically … Continue reading →

A Week of Work, Holidays, Birthdays, and Limited Exposure

Posted on April 11, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

Another week of schoolwork and housework.  Look, I’ve got very little else going on here since New York is such a mess.  Things were a little easier since our spring break was supposed to start on Thursday and we have … Continue reading →

Voices from Inside the House . . . Because We Can’t Go Out

Posted on April 4, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

This week was crazy.  We’d be doing schoolwork nonstop from 8 am until 1 or 2 pm.  I know people suggest breaks, but then it draws out longer and I get a child who is crying about not having any … Continue reading →

Goal Post: Sleep. I Definitely Need Sleep (Took me 4 tries to spell ‘Goal’ correctly)

Posted on March 28, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

Not even going to beat around the bush . . . I AM EXHAUSTED! Monday through Thursday went the same.  I woke up around 7 AM to let myself wake up and then got my son moving.  We had breakfast … Continue reading →

Week 1 of Containment: I Really Hope this is Saturday

Posted on March 21, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

Seriously, all of the days have blurred together with everything that happened.  I don’t have to tell all of you about what’s going on.  We’ve all been affected.  I’m still nervous because every map I look at has me sitting … Continue reading →

I Can’t Even Think of a Title Here

Posted on March 14, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I’m just stunned and confused now.  Leave out the stuff with taxes and the ex-wife as well as the application to graduate school.  All of those have been kind of dwarfed by the big thing going on.  Been trying to … Continue reading →

I Swear Things Happened this Week . . . Damned If I Remember What Though

Posted on March 7, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

(Loved the fight scene when this song showed up.  Annoyed that they only have it in two parts instead of one full video.  I was tempted to post them, but people don’t seem to bother with videos.) I’ve been out … Continue reading →
