Into the Groove
It really is the new normal, isn’t it?
Not that being stuck at home is fun, or comfortable, but I feel like we’re starting to get the hang of things around here.
What’s helped me:
- Establishing a daily routine for me and the kids
- It’s spring, which means I can send the kids outside, and we can all get out and walk
- Spring cleaning will keep all of us busy
- Taking my own advice and giving myself some projects to keep busy: cleaning camera equipment, starting a new batch of cider, and getting back into the fitness regiment.
The situation isn’t great, but it’s not as bad as it was a week or two ago. And that’s something.
Life, overall, is quieter. On our walk this week, I only noticed two cars driving down our typically-busy neighborhood streets. I don’t have a commute anymore. Most of what I hear, day to day, is the birds chirping, and I’ll take that any day.
Spring has sprung. Can you imagine dealing with this in the arctic days of January?
