Remember

Organization is key. We have nothing but time on our hands. We finally have the time to do all those projects around the house. We have time to take that online course. We have time to binge watch our favorite shows. Don’t forget that this is not a regular thing that we are experiencing. Remember that family is important. Remember you still need time for yourself. Remember it’s okay to feel. Remember that this is different for everyone. Remember that there are people who are experiencing this pandemic in a different way. Remember the less fortunate. Remember the grieving. Remember this lesson.

Routine

I have lost track of the days of the week. Every day seems like the weekend. Trash day is the only important day of the week. I had to get a routine together for the sake of my sanity. I need to get up. I need to accomplish something, even if it’s just getting out of the bed. The kids still have assignments for school. My husband has to go to work. Clothes have to be washed. Meals have to be cooked. There are things to do. Establishing a daily routine has helped bring some normalcy to my house. I can’t move the same way I used to, but a routine has helped me and maybe you too!
