    Groundhog Days

    Does anyone have a firm grasp on what day it is anymore? I laughed out loud when I saw this The Awkward Yeti comic because this is exactly how I feel right now. If it weren’t for the fact that I have school to focus on, and doctor’s appointments to keep to, I’m pretty sure I’d be lost. As it stands, I thought yesterday was Sunday for a full half of a day. This new normal is taking some getting used to, even though I’d settled into an okay groove. In case you missed it, I actually posted a review…

    Hopping on by.

    How are we all holding up friends? I’ll be honest, I’ve reached the point where I keep forgetting what day of the week it is. My only marker is that I have online class once a week, and so that’s how I know that it’s Wednesday. Hahaha. I don’t know what I’m going to do when it changes days. Staying at home seems like such a simple task, but my brain is reaching that marker where it actually misses challenges. So I think it might be time to find a new hobby again. It’s what I do when I’m in…

    April Fools?

    Yeah, my house isn’t this nice either. Don’t worry. Hahaha. I think while we’re all snug at home our houses may look a little more what I like to call “lived in”. A puzzle here, a coffee mug there, that book you were reading but abandoned (with the page saved just in case) sitting on the couch arm. Yup, cozy. Lived in. Perfectly you. I can’t be the only one out there who feels like these last few weeks have a been a blur. March has felt like a month that extended well beyond its intended 31 days, and yet…
