Well, that escalated quickly. Many of us were going into 2020 excited about the possibilities of a new year. We were killing our New Year’s resolutions, hitting our parenting goals, happy our kids were back in school after the holidays, and ready for some normalcy until the end of the school year. Then… record scratch! Coronavirus showed up like an ex you were trying to forget. The novel coronavirus has already started to dramatically change the way we live our lives. If you live in a city or densely populated region, you’re experiencing some major disruptions. You might be working from home for the first time, homeschooling your kids, practicing social distancing, and much more all in an effort to slow the spread of this coronavirus. Fortunately, you are not alone. We are all going through this together, taking it one day at a time. We will get through this.

The internet is here and it’s full of memes to put a smile on your face and let you know that everyone is feeling the exact same kind of way.
