#CoronaVirusPandemicQuarantine2020: April 2
What a glorious day! I went shopping for food and supplies for those who shouldn’t be out, spent some time with Jesus, got some school done with DT, and fudgy brownies are cooling on the stovetop while bread dough is rising in a sunbeam. I TURNED OFF AUTOCORRECT BECAUSE I DETEST IT. The washer, dryer, and dishwasher are running, and the #VictoryGarden has been watered.
Plus...my first rose bloomed today.
*sigh of contentment*
This is exactly the day I didn’t even know I needed.

#RedeemingTheQuarantine: March 27, 2020
#RedeemingTheQuarantine:
While New Mexico has only been on official stay at home orders since Tuesday, March 23rd, (4 days ago, we've already been at home for 2 weeks. For the past several days, a very blasé, let’s-sleep-in-because-who-cares attitude has reigned supreme. I woke up today ready to face this quarantine head on with renewed determination to not waste this time.
So, I got a workout in. I spent some time with Jesus. I cleaned the kitchen approximately 42 times (Hercules and Slick are snackers/grazers). Dan and I planted a small victory garden. I took a little drive around town with Hercules. I read. I destroyed my manicure. I talked to most of my people. Hercules and I watched Zumba’s Just Desserts and laughed together. I did some work-related things with Jodi via Zoom. My mom sent me some childhood photos of me. I ordered a phone/camera tripod so that we could try next week to host Game Night via Skype. I cleared off 4 “Flat Surface Areas” and pushed some furniture around. Enjoyed a BLT on homemade bread for dinner...take THAT Quarantine-Induced Pantry Challenge. 😉 Overall, not a bad day at all.
And now, it’s 10:30pm and Hercules went to pick up something from a friend “real quick”....3 hours ago, so I’m taking this tired body and my raggedy nails and going to bed.

How are you coping, friends?
