Out and About

When Covid-19 destroyed the girls' summer plans, we spent some time trying to figure out how to keep them busy. On their own they would sit on their devices and watch videos all day. We knew that they needed some downtime during the summer, but 24/7 was too much downtime. The brunette twin was able to find some normalcy in her world pretty quickly. Horseback riding is a good way to maintain physical distance from others. She was able to start lessons again almost as soon as her school year ended. Recently golf courses opened up. She's been golfing with her Dad once a week and hitting the range often. Both girls are taking an SAT prep class, which will help them during Junior year. The blond twin is retaking pert of her Chemistry class. She didn't do as well as she wanted first semester, especially if she wants to apply to nursing school. We've given up on finding summer jobs. So businesses are still completely or partially closed. We realize they will hire back their former employees before they hire new ones. Also, Covid-19 is still lingering. We're not sure it's worth the risk to have the girls working. Now, if only the blond twin could get back in the pool, we'd be set.
