My 3rd grade granddaughter said yesterday that she is sorry for the kindergartners and 1st graders, who haven't been able to experience even one or two years of normal school.

I suppose this is the new normal. I am thankful we live in as state with a democratic governor (Andy Beshear, KY), so online school may be a pain, but it sure takes a lot of worry away.

Hang in there, folks.
