While the weather made mother’s day largely a bust. It was nice to hang out without much to do, with my boys. My poor husband is probably wondering why he decided to get me the gift that keeps on giving. Seems we will be at it for a couple of days in order to getContinue reading “Day 47 | The Covid Chronicles”

Day 46 | The Covid Chronicles
Another day in paradise. Woke up, as usual, and read a bit of the news and I must say – humans can be ridiculous. I understand we are all doing our best at this adulting business, but really? I read of a man throwing things at a cashier, another wiping snot on a person whenContinue reading “Day 46 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 45 | The Covid Chronicles
Liquid sunshine. Yes, we are the sunshine state. Yes, it is an amazing place to live. Yes, there is one often overlooked fact that we keep to ourselves: it is liquid sunshine a lot of the year. Interestingly enough, this year we have not had our usual rainfall so we are currently under a waterContinue reading “Day 45 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 44 | The Covid Chronicles
The almost perfect day started with an outing – gasp! – yes… an outing. I have to say it was the coolest outing I have had in months… There is a little plant nursery down in Homestead that mainly has shrubs and ornamentals, from what we observed and based on our limited plant knowledge, thatContinue reading “Day 44 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 43 | The Covid Chronicles
One of my favorite things to do is sit on my porch or deck at first light. My neighborhood is lush with green and the music when it’s quiet is amazing. Its source is countless species of birds calling at daybreak and without the usual noise pollution from cars, planes, etc., it is lovely. BeforeContinue reading “Day 43 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 42 | The Covid Chronicles
My schedule went out the window, as did my writing, for a few days. Without it, and having completed the kitchen overhaul, I find myself at the point of slightly stir-crazy. I love the time with my kiddo. I love that we are home and safe. I hate the thought of this “new normal” beingContinue reading “Day 42 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 37 | The Covid Chronicles
Still home and safe. Today was a shitshow of a day… tech support, handy person, cook and mom – all while trying to make progress with my kitchen project. BTW, why did no one tell me I was loony bins for even starting with that insanity. It’s coming along nicely, but oh my word. IfContinue reading “Day 37 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 36 | The Covid Chronicles
Oh boy… What did I get myself into. My kitchen is by no means a large kitchen. It’s a decent size. It took a good amount of time to scrub cabinets and take down doors, and now I realize there is a project within the project. With such a clean view of the insides, seemsContinue reading “Day 36 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 35 | The Covid Chronicles
Day 1 of kitchen cabinets project and my husband has not kicked me out of the house yet. That’s a good sign considering the house smelled of vinegar and the doors and drawers are without knobs. I expect the situation will get precarious once the sanding begins… not sure what I got myself into, butContinue reading “Day 35 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 34 | The Covid Chronicles
Amazed at the fact that it has been this long and my son and I haven’t killed each other yet. I have to say, I have very much enjoyed hanging out with him this month. Some very much needed time for us. Today a new member of the tribe entered our stratosphere for about aContinue reading “Day 34 | The Covid Chronicles”
