1. Yep. I work in the library and am stuck here until further notice.

I've got a 1st grader in after school care that ends at 6. I hope they don't hold it against me if I'm late picking him up.

2. Oh my goodness,

I am sad for you sadbear. Please be alert and take care of yourself. Hopefully, the after school care center will realize the unusual situation was beyond your control.

Please let us know when you are safe.

3. I'm home.

They let us go at 5:30 even though they hadn't apprehended anyone. I haven't heard of any other developments.
