Weekend vibes

Since everything was cancelled from March through May, we didn't immediately think about what we were missing this weekend. A look at the calendar reminds me that it was supposed to be a busy weekend. There was the annual Women of Joy conference in Branson which was replaced for us as it was Katie's junior Prom and After Prom party. The girls would have had dance lessons and there was a baby shower planned for a close family friend. Instead - we took a walk and bike ride, tried a new bread recipe, and learned to play Scattergories via Zoom with my girls.

I also was able to listen to my favorite christian worship artist on Sunday as James played one of his worship sets through the sound system at our drive-up church service. Then I heard that vocalist was diagnosed with COVID-19.

Because our lives have been hectic for so many years, my "to do" list is always longer than the time I have available. Now I have the time to cross of a few of those tasks. I guess this would be why we are not feeling the isolation or boredom I hear others experiencing. Or I'm such a busy person that I will always find a project to complete or a new idea to tackle. So far I have emptied some boxes from the garage, hung picture frames, files some pictures in photo albums (however many many more yet to go), and completed extra cleaning tasks. It also helps that work is sporadic and I can accomplish some household tasks between work tasks when those used to have to wait until late evening. I'm curious what our habits will be when life changes again and all the busyness is back.
