April 12, 2020. First full day of having Dilly. Sooo much training and an equal amount of sleeping. We think she is the cutest, smartest dog in the world, of course.

April 11, 2020. Taking Dilly home with us. We were nervous, excited, and ready with so many treats to make her love us, but to our surprise she just got right into the car and happily stared out the winow for the whole drive. Brunswick, ME.

April 10, 2020. Dancing has been really important to my mental health.

April 9, 2020. As if things weren’t strange enough.

April 8, 2020. Everyone’s doin it.

April 7, 2020. Picnic, fiddle tunes, surfing. It’s a Tuesday?! That’s irrelevent.

April 6, 2020. If you look very closely, there is a man at the top of that very tall tree trunk. This was by far the most exciting moment of my day.

April 4, 2020. My parents, 6 feet away. It was a strange day, but seeing them was the upside. Concord, NH

April 3, 2020. Go to the beach for some fresh air, get two boots full of sea water. Oops. The fresh air was still nice, at least. Scarborough, ME.

April 2, 2020. 10 minutes of light exercise a day keeps the insanity away. Oh shoot...too late.

April 1, 2020. Exploring new corners of the neighborhood. Portland, ME.

Mar 30, 2020. Meeting Emmy for the first time! It’s very hard to keep your distance from the cutest puppy in the world.

Mar 29, 2020. For every bit of decluttering we do, we must reclutter. This. Is. The. Game. Of. Life.

Mar 28, 2020. I’ve been racing every distance 1-10k through the run club we’re a part of. Since he got clocked in the head, Ian’s been riding his bike next to me and yelling things like “you’ve got this” and “run faster.” Something about being in isolation seems to bring out my competetive side. Today, stitchless, Ian sprinted a 2k and I rode next to him on my bike and yelled! I wore a track jacket to fully get into the coach persona.

Mar 27, 2020. A mysterious look for the mysterious new scar on his forehead.

Mar 26, 2020. An outtake from Mellina’s 5th birthday video. Alternate title: Help! I can’t stop taking photos of Ian with this headband look!

Mar 24, 2020. All blue everything.
