So we’re trying to enjoy what we can, respectful

So we’re trying to enjoy what we can, respectfully, before the city shuts everything down. The water was breathtaking and the sunshine was so welcome. I got to enjoy my lovely artisan creations from @wolfandclay as well. Small businesses are certainly going to be hit the hardest, and as that’s where my own sensibilities lie, I encourage you to shop carefully. Not just for your own budget, but also be very aware of where your money is going right now because we have a unique opportunity to create the world we want. Like supporting small craftspeople. Like Wolf and Clay – which is so well made and so unique. Check out my earrings and necklace if you need proof. Someone better snatch their big green and yellow earrings fast because they are pure joy!

Reflections. I've been sleeping like crap. Clenchi

Reflections. I've been sleeping like crap. Clenching my jaw and dealing with non stop tension headaches. Right now, my stretching and meditation practice is more vital than ever. I'm needing space to reflect and breathe. I also realize how much I need physical touch. How much we all need it. Our animal nervous system craves it. Sending you love. ❤️❤️❤️

There’s no more glamor travelling, or fancy rest

There’s no more glamor travelling, or fancy restaurants, or VIP tables ar crowded nightclubs…. not that I had that in the first place. But this whole Covid situation has forced us all to slow down and simplify to a huge extent. Our family has been finding ways to stay sane, create our own space, and also been spending more time together. The walks around our wild space have been great, and we’ve been taking our time and meandering knowing that there’s no real pressing need to keep a schedule. It has also given me the opportunity to get a lot of embroidery done, and start a new hobby that has interested me for a while: foraging. I bought a book on local plants and which ones are edible and I’m actually looking forward to learning about the plants surrounding us. I’d love to know whether this has prompted you to learn/do something new.

The city has gone tighter. More and more things closed as people refuse to respect social distancing. It’s a little frustrating how it happens. Outside the grocery store there are marks to keep everyone apart as they wait entry to the store. The two people in front of me, sanitized their cart with lysol, then lysoled their single use latex gloves AFTER they had already used hand santizer on them. And yes, they were wearing masks. They both gave me dirty looks when in a state of distraction I accidentally got within 10 feet of them. *The marks were for seven feet apart, they were imposing a greater distance on their own* But once inside, I casually strolled around, up and down the aisles and not ten minutes later, the man from the couple, shoved me aside to get to the frozen peas. I guess you only need to social distance outside?? *sarcasm fully intended* Either way, the massive green space, where you wave to another family 30-50 feet away from you has been a treasure trove of sanity. Thank God for trees and water.

Fine, I'm doing perfectly fine. Just fine! 😉🥴🥴 #selfisolation #socialdistancing #covornavirus #covid_19 #batman

There was a joke on Facebook about how when this is all over there will be so many babies, and so many divorces. It’s funny, but it’s true. But in relationships and the daily hustle and bustle, we ignore and shove down our needs and our wants to keep going. And now everything has stopped.
And we’re locked in our houses with each other.
And there’s no where to go, and nothing to distract. That means facing each other, and facing the things we’ve been pushing down. And that’s good. It’s not easy, but it’s good. We’ve been facing the things we’ve been ignoring. It’s made for some tense days, but ultimately I think it’s a good thing to face the music and face each other. You either break or come out better on the other end. But either way, at least you’re not pretending anymore. What’s my point? My point is, that it’s okay to have a tough time relationally. It’s okay to talk to your best friend about how you’re struggling. You don’t have to pretend it’s bliss. It’s like strength training, you workout to tear your muscles slightly so that they grow stronger. But the process can be painful and you’re sore the next day. Ultimately, it’s for long term growth though.
