Current situation...

My little guy, in his favorite place when it’s warm enough to leave open but not too warm when we can’t.

Happy….what day is it? Actually, I DO know, it’s Friday!! I have fallen into a new routine on this third week of the Covid 19 Crisis and our home bound situation. I be sure to get up after a good night sleep (a thing of rarity that I am EATING up), and get dressed in “real” clothes, face washed, teeth brushed, and ready to start my day. The first two weeks were not like that, I admit. I would stay in my jammies all day, not working out, just kind of being in a little bit of shock/funk combined, and trying to force structure into my day. What changed? I realized how I need to practice something I find MOST important, a change in my OWN mindset. This time could be amazing, and one that I would normally never get, where I get to reset my mind, body and attitude, and evaluate where I want to go once this isolation is lifted. I have gotten into a new workout routine, I have been able to tackle some VERY tedious and not “fun” (but grateful I have the energy to tackle them) tasks around the house, make some plans for future endeavors and goals, and still maintain behind the scenes stuff for my job! So here I am, things have fallen into place naturally, and I feel more productive than before. Mental and physical relief.

I shot just a few frames over the last few weeks that represent a little piece of changes in my world. By no means comprehensive, but it will be interesting to look back on years down the line.

It won’t help my mental state, Chris’s mental state, or my ability to help uplift anyone else struggling by being a downer and negative about the situation. I have my moments of fear, of thoughts about what the future will look like, but then I realize, it will continue and will change, just.like.always.

Hang in there everyone, I am thinking of everyone. Thank you for reading and leave a note if you want to chat!

<3 to you all…
