I woke up this morning thinking, "wasn't it JUST Friday?" Actually, last Friday, I woke up thinking it was Thursday, so at least I didn't do that this week. In so many ways the week went by in a flash, and in so many ways it felt like it was slow like molasses. I can't figure out the dissonance. I think the days feel long, but the week didn't I guess.
Then I asked myself what I did this week, did I do anything? I was pleasantly surprised when I tallied up in my head what I did.
I drank a LOT of water, much more than in any other week for as long as I can remember. I think I also cemented down a darn good habit. I also cooked a lot of veggies, and I'm happy to say, my fridge has no dead, wilting veggies in it anymore. Thanks to Amanda's challenge -- it kickstarted me!
Romeo finished his 4th grade flashcards, which means we went on a lot of walks and did a lot of spelling words. I got him to do online school every day this week, and at least got the other kids ready to start next week.
I made a gluten free banana bread and ate the whole thing. I went to the grocery store twice. I cooked most nights....except for one night of take out (plus, I think I'm doing take out tonight too). We're doing our part to help restaurants!
I worked a considerable amount (albeit way, way less than this time last year).
I called a lot of friends. Drank a good deal of wine (for medicinal purposes). Read the book, The World That We Know (by Alice Hoffman...it's great). I watched a little t.v. with John at night--eventually we'll get thru Killing Eve. I regulated my media, and didn't let too much in.
I finished ordering things for the kids' Easter baskets. Apparently the Easter Bunny doesn't get a quarantine hiatus, she's still expected to deliver the baskets.
I did a reasonable amount of housework (not amazing, but respectable amount). I kept up with the laundry, and that's always a feat unto itself.
I did yoga every day (it's a highlight of every day).
I don't know people, I think that's pretty good actually right?! I mean, my bar is pretty low right now, but I think I cleared it without any problem. Overall, pretty stellar week....hope you all feel the same about your first days of April.
