Sunday Morning

I get up from bed and prepare for the day ahead and try to follow some sort of routine. I don't always make the bed anymore but because it bugs me so much I make it in the afternoon, after all I have literally no reason to make it, right? I am a mom and I have done almost everything in my married life for others. With self isolating I am slowly coming to realise that I need to find motivation to do things that please myself. I am still a valuable person (so who isn't?) and when I am cooped up inside my house, who is there to visit with to give me feedback on my work, validate me and do things with me, so I should make the bed for myself because it gives me pleasure to take care of my house. Right? I have learned a lot about myself during this 100 day isolation from the world. How about you, what are you learning? What are you seeing? I have been able to be introspective, contemplative and I have allowed myself to sort of daudile abit, no need to hurry and I think I am seeing a difference in myself.

My children are grown up....

but I want to acknowledge all the parents out there who are struggling to make ends meet and take care of their children and take care of their homes and get groceries. My heart goes all of you. Even as past events that have happened here in our world, this too will pass. It will be good again but just different.
