A New Normal

This is my home away from home with three desks and tons of magazines.

Cooking:  Gorton's Simply Bake Tilapia Signature Seasoning with macaroni and cheese from Carl's  Food Center and Bush's baked beans. 
Listening: Blinding Lights by The Weeknd on Apple Music. This song makes me move.
Reading: "You Are Not Alone" by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen
Watching: Grey's Anatomy--I am old school. Had to go back to the beginning.
Podcast listening: The Daily from The New York Times

It is April. March felt longer than January. I am writing this from my desk at the newspaper where I work in South Carolina. I am adjusting to this new normal. I am so thankful to still have a job and to be healthy. I am being very careful and definitely washing my hands more. Social distancing does not bother me since it is the theme of my life.

My goals each day is to be positive, do the best possible job and make it home safely.
The city I live in has curfew now. Each night from 10 p.m.-6 p.m., we need to be inside. No complaints from me.

Now that things have slowed down considerably. I had a chance to rearrange my office and give it a good cleaning. I am fortunate to have a huge office with three desks. So yay! I changed things around so I can at least see the trees outside my window. It has improved my mood greatly.

I missing see my son who lives in another county but it is for the best. We use Google Duo to see each other and talk several times a day.
At home, I plan to work on some cleaning and organizing projects.

My projects:
— Clean and organize my nightstand.
— Clean and organize the refrigerator.
— Each week, unpack three boxes.
— Pack up the winter clothes. If I am not feeling something, I will donate it.
— Unpack the spring clothes.
— Clean the bathroom cabinet.
— Buy a bathroom thingy to organize the bathroom.
— Go through my memory totes and get rid of items.
— Buy a lamp for the walk-closet. Also organize all three of my closets. Yes, I have three closets. Please don't judge.
— Get the linen area organized.
— Organize official documents.
— Organize photos. Find and print photos for photo albums.
— Wash, clean, and vacuum the Jeep.
— Organize my desk at home.
— Clean Agent Kitty's areas (litter, living room, and sunroom).
— Organize my stationery, greeting cards and other office supplies.

I think these projects will keep me busy during April. Have a good weekend and be safe!
