    We have a puppy. DS1 plays sax. DS2 plays trombone. The school band has a barking accompanist now.

    Default Funny thing happened on the way to Distance Learning....

    DS1 (11) spent 15 minutes during language arts class trying to explain to his teacher how to use canvas . He demonstrated how to upload documents and some other technical stuff by sharing his screen on the google meet. Guess the teachers don’t need IT support when they have tech savvy 6th graders.

    DS2 (7) has brought his iPad into the bathroom a few times so he can poop during class. When I told him that wasn’t okay, he said he always turns off the video and mutes himself so what’s the problem.

    The first time my 9 yr old logged into a zoom meeting he put his name as 'pottyhead'. It's the screen name he chose for his Roblox account, thinking it was funny (eyeroll...boy humor). He was kicked off and blocked from zoom instantly. We had to call the principal and explain to get another invitation sent out for him to join the class meeting.

    There is construction going on next door to the school. We don't care, as everyone is remote right now. However...

    The construction crew managed to cut BOTH the power and the internet lines to the school this morning (Tuesday). So no school the rest of today, no school tomorrow, and they HOPE to have things up by Thursday.

    Gotta love it.

    We're going to have to call a student's family to gently remind them that the mics on the chromebooks pickup background conversations.... Including their arguments and profuse swearing.
