Like the mediocre parent I am, I thought it may be prudent to prepare for the inevitable #COVID19 outbreak.

Tonight, I read the CDC website and came across these problems:

1) My daughter and I live in 672 sq ft. 2) Alternative childcare? I can't even afford regular childcare.

That's the reason why Charlie has slept through more than her fair share of congressional hearings.

Something happened tonight that I want to talk about. I’ve kept it to myself but now I see I’m not the only one. (A thread.) In September, my husband uttered the words, “I’m done.” and I suddenly found myself a single parent.

I quickly realized that I can’t raise my daughter alone and need to be near a community of friends and support.

I decided we’re moving to Boston in the spring.
