Hey folks, it has been a while since I've posted anything. To be quite honest, I didn't even know what to post. I know know that 2020 has been a whirlwind of activity for everyone, and I'm being kind. Heck, folks are STRESSED!!! Hatred, Illnesses, pandemics, masks/no masks, fights, name-calling, school/no school, the isms, politics, where the heck do you turn to? What do you do? Where can you go? How do you relieve the stress/anxiety? What do I do?
I found myself asking those questions, and not knowing the answers. The first few days of the shutdown, I was taken aback. First, my vehicle broke down, and I was laid off from a couple of places I worked at. OK, not completely bad. As I sat back and wondered what to do with additional hours in my day, I got grounded. I started a garden...again. This time, its different. I'm actually home more, so I can see it in the daytime. Working 8 to faint, you hardly know what your home looks like in the daytime. It was something about me literally getting my hands dirty that chilled me out. I love seeing the "fruits" of labor. No, its not the prettiest garden, but its not dead either. Again, something about feeling soil between your fingers and toes grounds you (kind of the feeling I get when I go to the beach to chill).
I could go on, like ridding the house of clutter, identifying and repairing stuff at home (since we are at home, make it an oasis, right), spending more time with my businesses, etc.
So, what are you doing different since the pandemic? Are you adjusting to the "new normal?" Share with us!!
