I had a dream last night that there was actually an earthquake and I tried to wake up and move but couldn’t. I could see shadows through the slits of my eyelids and I felt the shakes. I really thought there was one then I guess the dream ended, or that’s all I remember. I […]

I called my mom yesterday afternoon to let her know her dentist’s office had called me to say they’ve reopened and were scheduling new appointments. She is due for her regular checkup and cleaning. My mom had a stroke last year resulting in some aphasia (speech difficulty) so I went with her to the dentist […]

I haven’t lost or gained weight really in the past six months since quarantine started. I have worked out a lot though and my body has lost a lot of fat and I have gained some muscle. I wish I had measured my body, instead of just my weight, so I’d be able to tell […]

I had a pretty relaxing weekend, not because I didn’t do anything or just vegged but because I wasn’t hard on myself. I took it easy with the responsibilities in my head and didn’t put pressure on me having to get a lot done. I did as much as I could. I didn’t set tasks […]

I binged-watched most of Season 3 of How to Get Away with Murder the other night. I didn’t even realize I had been in front of the TV for over five hours until the next day when I thought to calculate. I remember I stopped at 2:13 a.m. and counted back. My older daughter told […]

There aren’t any plans in place yet for school for my little ones that’s supposed to start next month. I’ve been told the likelihood of a hybrid program — some distance learning, and some time spent at the school, but no confirmation on how the scheduling would work. Maybe some days some students are at […]

I woke up early yesterday, a couple of minutes before 5am, and for the rest of the day I was super productive and focused, got a lot done according to my schedule. This morning, same thing. I woke up a few minutes before 5am but then closed my eyes and the next time I opened […]

Signed up for an online writing class last week and just finished reading about story structure and my mind has been blown. The lesson delved further than the three acts so it was very enlightening and for some weird reason, it’s all suddenly clicked for me. I’ve wanted to write a memoir, a novel, some […]

I heard of the Notion, an online information tool, some time last year. I’m so overwhelmed, I really am. I’m so excited about it because it seems so powerful and I can use it for all the lists and data I want to keep and track. It’s crazy. I’m going to really do an outline […]

So tired today, did a lot of driving. Had to take my mother to get tested for COVID this morning. Picked her up at 9:10, dreading that she wasn’t going to be ready and I’d have to wait like I usually do when she’s involved. But it only took her four minutes to come down […]
