COVID Changes Things . .

 


We spent most of last Sunday getting Preston ready for a week-long sleep-away camp with his buddy Ben in the mountains.  I got extra cash from the ATM, bought a nice new portable fan, had everything packed and ready to go Sunday night (because the plan was to leave at 6:30am Monday) . . . and then Monday came.  On Sunday he mentioned that he thought he was getting Savannah's cold, but today he woke up with a headache and sore throat. :( I had gotten up super early to get a run in and when I was getting out of the shower the thought occurred to me that we might need to do a Covid test just to make sure he was okay before sending him to a new camp for a week.  Just as Ben arrived in the driveway to carpool to camp, the test popped up POSITIVE. So I guess this was an unwelcome part of Bible school and a drastic change in plans for the week.  Instead of having the time of his life at camp with Ben, he was stuck in his room all week long.


This picture doesn't even do it justice as to what his room looked like all week.  There were still remnants of the closet clean-out, bags that were packed for camp, laundry, food wrappers, water bottles, and a myriad of other things all over the place.  He was quarantined for the week and I think secretly enjoyed so much screen time.  BUT, now we are in phase two where he just needs to wear a mask for a few more days but is finally out of quarantine.  :)  So I went in yesterday with Lysol and we got things back in order!  We are all ready to move on and still praying everyone else stays well!
