Okay I know the days don’t totally matter anymore, but Happy Friday nonetheless!
Even if it just means lighter e-mails, I’m still excited for the weekend? Although, I’m definitely pretty bummed that they’ve officially closed our hiking trails and beaches because this weather is the *ideal* for being outside. That pic up there was taken last Saturday, and I miss it already.
Though this week has been filled with high highs and low lows for so many, I do think there are a few silver linings to the situation we’re in:
- more virtual connection with others through FaceTime/Zoom
- time to experiment and get creative in the kitchen
- quality time spent with loved ones if you’re co-quarantining
- slower, more simpler living
That being said, I know I have it soooo much easier than most. If you are someone who is alone or taking care of a family, jobless or working hard to protect and serve the rest of us, a business owner, or literally just anyone at all, I’m thinking of you and I’m here for you. If there is any way this blog or I can support you, please let me know??
Until then, some light reading…
