Day 50
Good Morning,
Our amazing Psychologist Nahomi has shared a video below and a really wonderful Mindful May Calendar, make sure to check it out.
It is hard to believe that today is day 50?! I miss you all so very much and am looking forward to the day when we can see eachother again. I have asked my husband to go out on a date with me this week, our very romantic destination is to drive by the school, don't be jealous. I live in La Mesa so I don't get to see the progress on the school very often. I am excited to see the updated changes as our structure transforms into a building. I will take some pictures and include them in the newsletter so that you can share them with your kids, it is important they see the progressions so that it is not so shocking for them.
I love and miss you all so much! Remember we have a zoom call for anyone who would like to participate this Thursday at 3pm via Zoom. It will not be our only one so if you are unable to attend there will be more. Additionally if you have something you would like for me to discuss you can send me questions ahead of time and I will try to address them. Send questions to sarah@sdccs.org.
With love, respect and gratitude,
Sarah
The ‘murder hornet’ arrives in the U.S. - Like we need another thing...
Scientists and beekeepers are racing to control the spread of the Asian giant hornet, a vicious species that decapitates bees with its mandibles and could devastate bee populations.
In Japan, the hornets kill up to 50 people each year. Being stung by one, a scientist told The Times, felt like having red-hot thumbtacks “driven into my flesh.”
Open or Closed?
Why the difference? Some of it is only natural. Conservative areas tend to be less densely populated, and conservatives are often uncomfortable with government directives. But the growing partisan divide also reflects a fundamentally different view of the virus between leaders in the two parties.
Republicans are focused on the economic damage from a prolonged shutdown. As Dan Patrick, Texas’s 70-year-old lieutenant governor, said recently, “There are more important things than living, and that’s saving this country for my children and my grandchildren and saving this country for all of us.”
Many Democrats, on the other hand, continue to see the virus as a dire threat. They believe that reopening now — without the availability of tests that President Trump has long been promising — will needlessly cost lives.
The bottom line: The country is about to enter a new phase of the virus, with a near-national lockdown giving way to more regional variation. NY Times The Morning
