… of my being laid off (for 4 weeks to start) got off to a great start. These past 3 days? Not so much. I have gotten a lot of leaves raked, been cooking and cleaning, and crocheting. I have been trying to do something constructive every day and it is just too much.
My anxiety has been on fire since Wednesday, and our new Michigan orders have even the most basic things being restricted.
I have a duck pen and coop to get built, but the weather and my aching body are not cooperating these last couple of days. Snow? Really???
I have a stack of books to read, some from the library and some I bought last month. I have instead been binge watching Midsomer Murders for the past week when I am not outside.
I think not being able to celebrate Easter with my family and church is bothering me more than I realize right now. I am assuming when my youngest daughter and I are eating dinner Sunday it will hit me like a brick to the face.
I know so many others have it so much worse than I do, and I am trying to focus on how fortunate I am to keep my spirits up. And this too shall pass.
I am about to watch The Passion of the Christ. If that can’t fix my attitude, nothing will.
I hope you are all coping with whatever level of quarantine you are under right now, and staying healthy and happy!
I would love to hear what you are doing to feel good, and even what is getting you down right now!
Be well and I look forward to hearing from you!

Hang in there. Happy Easter.
Thanks Martie! Happy Easter to you as well !
I am. Not reading but taking it one day at a time
I definitely have good days and bad! It still all seems so surreal…
Exactly…. I feel I am stuck in a nightmare
I’ve cleaned my car twice since we went into lockdown, even though it isn’t dirty because I haven’t driven further than the supermarket! I’ve caught up on some films and TV programmes which I recorded on 2018 and had never had time to watch until now.
I need to stop watching Midsomer Murders and catch up on Ozark 😊
Hang in there, it’ll be over soon. I think that time is going really slowly; I can’t even tell what day it is so far😅
I agree about the days for sure! My daughter has been out of school for over a month and I’m pretty sure she doesn’t know what month it is right now ! Thanks for stopping by and sharing!
Haha, that’s everyone these days…. Also, no problem!
The goal of getting a constructive thing done each day is one I’m trying to cling to also. It’s hard.
It is, but you definitely need to give yourself time to just do nothing as well. After 6 days of being constructive, I was an emotional mess😂
Such pretty slippers and cute ducklings!
Thank you Pearl!
Love the ducklings and the slippers look so comfy. Take care and stay safe. All the best!
Happy Easter, hang in there! This will be my first week of only working 20%, planned to go on till the end of May. We shall see…
Thanks Cathy! This is week 2 for me, I’m hanging in there 😊 Be well and thanks for sharing!
I can’t believe I missed your post. Love those baby ducks. Hope you are doing well.
Great 👍
Beautiful slippers. How do you make them? Cheers
crocheted, I would have to dig the pattern up 🙂
