Day in the life of Covid-19

I saw the sunshine today but was busy keeping warm at work today. 
 The kids were able to play outside, though.  Glad for family able to support us today.

Also proud of John taking the initiative to help out the community the best way he knows how.

Remembering how to breathe

Image
Hi there!  It has been a while. I will take the fact I haven't felt the need to write here the past few years as a good sign.  While we have journeyed through multiple seasons in the past four years, we have found our way somehow.  That is something to be proud of. Now I'm feeling compelled to share my thoughts and experiences again.  There are new challenges, goals, fears, and concerns to discuss.  I am pretty sure there are others out there with similar experiences that need encouragement.  I also know there are those that don't relate, but I want to share my perspective to maybe broaden some views. There are a lot of suggestions of changes for our world right now.  Some are pretty scary and others could possibly be good.  Finding the balance between holding our breath and taking in a deep breath is hard.  The phrase just breathe just doesn't cut it these days. Trying to figure out what to do with myself, I am remembering that I am created ...

Chill of Summer

There are still about a dozen days of summer before autumn makes its official appearance.   Even so, there has already been a chill in the air during these last few days of summer. One could blame the recent hurricanes for the chill in the weather, but there is another kind of chill creeping in. My daughter sought warmth this morning with her winter coat.   Not until she actually tested the temperature herself, did she believe that a light jacket will suffice.   My body felt tinged with cold yesterday and today.   A battle of the air conditioner against the cold temperatures outside; the house just could not feel warm.   But there was another kind of coldness as well. The summer warmth of time spent together at a relaxed paced has crept away as the busy schedules of school, homework, interviews, and appointments crowded in over the past month. I find myself drawn into the role of student.   I am reading three books at once, wi...

Weekend Whiplash

Image
It never seems to fail that Mondays are hard. Except when your Monday is Tuesday due to a holiday, or an extra day off work, snow storms, etc. I have decided that it isn't Mondays themselves that is the issue, it is instead Weekend Whiplash. Weekend Whiplash:  the sudden change of inertia in daily activities causing painful adjustments to new pace of activities I used to love playing on the swings.  Swinging back and forth trying to touch the sky.  Loved it! Now I am not used to it anymore.  When I do swing the sensation of falling freaks me out and makes my stomach nauseous.  The same is for Weekend Whiplash.  The change makes you feel off and unsettled and it is reflected in your behavior.  It doesn't matter if you have the busiest weekend or the slowest and most relaxing; changing back to a different routine always messes you up.  And if you are a 3 year old or sensitive 7 year old? Forget about it, you are done even before the en...
